You will contribute to the Level 0 teaching team for delivery of the 20 credit semester one optional module ‘LLLC0121 Image, Music and Text’ (60% of teaching role) and the 20 credit semester two optional module ‘LLLC0143 Communications’ (40% of teaching role).
Teaching Responsibilities
Teaching on the two Level 0 modules will provide an introduction to current thinking and approaches relating to the study of Arts, Humanities and Cultures for foundation year learners as appropriate to module learning outcomes. Working with the Module Leaders and Programme Manager, you will contribute to preparation, delivery, academic tutorials, student support and assessment for these modules. Teaching will include the delivery of a strand of creative and subject-specific skills workshops, alongside interactive hybrid lecture-seminar sessions.

LLLC0121 Image, Music and Text
