Discussion forums - where you can post questions for your lecturer to assist you with any
challenges you face regarding the module (Make sure you visit the Moodle platform every 3

Microsoft Teams meetings - where you will be expected to book slots on a scheduler, on the
Moodle platform.

regular basis.
We hope you will take advantage of the support provided throughout the year and not leave
everything for the end of the year.

that you will receive. You must read through all the tutorial letters you receive during the year,

through the study material, completing the assignments, and addressing questions to your
lecturers.
We have also included certain general and administrative information about this module. Please
study this section of the tutorial letter carefully. It contains the required activities that you will need
to do, with the help of your mentor, at the school where you have been placed by the Teaching
Practice Office (TPO).
