The course is taught over 6 individual training workshops, each focusing on a specific skill, technique or information resource, supplemented by independent and group learning. These workshops cover a number of techniques, including -inter alia - animal identification, plant identification, biodiversity assessment, field sampling, habitat surveys, field GIS tools, data analysis, report writing, understanding and working with legal conservation designations, and data presentation. Exercises will involve a mixture of laboratory, on-campus and off-campus settings. Tuition will be provided by MU staff, supplemented by Experts from external organisations involved biodiversity analysis and assessment. A significant element in the course is group-based learning activities. Module grading is entirely by continuous assessment. Students are required to submit individual reports and exercises based directly on workshop activities, as well as individual and group-based learning assignments.
