How the Programme Works
Tutored programme: Law & Medical Ethics
Stage One - book online via the secure online booking process. Please note that if you make a booking at the weekend - you will not be contacted by the eSCRIPT distance learning support team until the following Monday
Stage Two - one week prior to the start date, you are issued a password, username and a website address
Stage Three - each week (on a Saturday) content is released, you can review, print, read, and engage with that material. The following Monday to Friday your tutor joins your class online for discussions about the topics raised. You are encouraged to discuss with your class, ask questions and raise important points for feedback. This discussion is a key component of the learning process.
Stage Four - at the end of the programme you will have some weeks to review and record any of the information you feel important enough to require future reference, but don't forget if you've selected the seven or ten module programmes you'll also have the text book to refer to. Furthermore, you should have also printed the take-away toolkits for easy reference.
