Intellectual / Professional skills & abilities:
2. Enhance independent learning abilities required to develop skills in critically evaluating evidence and drawing conclusions about it usefulness to professional practice.
3. Draw upon IT skills to facilitate their professional development and communication strategies e.g. using a PowerPoint Presentation to present and justify their case study.
4. Provide a robust and well considered critical discussion to their peers in the context of wider theories and practice, during workshops and in their summative written case study.
Personal Values Attributes (Global / Cultural awareness, Ethics, Curiosity) (PVA):

How will I be assessed?
MLO’s 1 -5 will be addressed formatively and summatively.
The formative assessment for this module requires the student to complete various exercises during the lectures and workshops.
Completion of the exercises will demonstrate the ability to:
• Research and critically evaluate differing types of evidence; discussing with peers and teachers how relevant the evidence is to their own clinical practice.
• Work collaboratively within a learning community; presenting information to your module peers in a variety of formats.
The student will be encouraged to seek formative feedback from both module tutors and peers before the summative assessment date which presents them with the opportunity to improve their evidence of learning through critical reflection and constructive criticism.
The summative assessment for this module requires the student to write a 3000 word critical exploration and evaluation of a case study that demonstrates their ability to contextualise the central components of CBT.
