TECHNICAL NOTES.
51.
Length of study sessions.
The first groups of study sessions have a
minimum indicated study time of 30 or 60 minutes. After that, the sessions last at least 2
hours, in some cases even longer. Most students will need more time.
52.
Reminders, reports, and exams (tutor-supported courses)
See : The
Student’s progress chart.
The course has systematic
built-in reminders (recalls) of the most important aspects of the course. Important concepts are approached from
different angles.
As a second-level recall, students must submit
a report block by block on the work they have done. This report must be
approved by the tutor before the student can proceed to the next block of study
sessions.
As a third-level recall, students must pass
exams for each Section of the course, before they can proceed to the study
sessions in the following section of the course.
53. Written work (“opinions,
research, and reports”)
The student’s written work takes the form of
research, opinion, and reports.
The division between
research and opinion is not always clear. Some research topics contain elements
of opinion. Some opinions contain elements of research. About half of the
written work has been classified as “opinion”, and half has been classified as
“research”. Many students will need to
dedicate much more time to their written work than the minimum time shown in
the session material.
For their research,
students are asked to collect and present certain information, often
information on the local situation in their chosen project areas. During the course
of this work, students are preparing project documentation for their own
project areas for use later on during the fourth quarter of their studies at the end of the course.
.Students are also often asked to supply their
opinions on principles and information presented in the course material.
Tutor-supported students
must prepare block by block reports on the work they have done. Approval of the
report by the tutor is required before the student can proceed to the following
block.
From time to time the
tutors will transmit to tutor-supported
students a series of .htm files with the student’s code, which is the code
given to each student’s chosen project area. Each .htm file refers to a specific piece of
research or to an opinion. Alternatively, tutors may decide to teach students
how to generate their own work files.
Once the work in question has been completed,
the student copies it by e-mail to the tutor.
All written work received
from tutor-supported students is part of the information collected by NGO Stichting Bakens Verzet on the project,
region, and country in question. The best exercises will be published on
website www.integrateddevelopment.org
for the benefit of the general public.
54. Pages for written work.
“One page” is an .htm document, the equivalent
of a page size A4. One page contains a
maximum of 500 words.
“Two pages” means an .htm
document, the equivalent of two size A4 pages.
Two pages contain a maximum of 1000 words. A working plan is usually provided
for work more than one page long.
