This course introduce students to the critical climatic and environmental systems that brought about the development of the British landscape over the past ca. 3 million years.
-
The module examines the practical and theoretical issues around curriculum making. During the module, participants are asked to develop a curriculum artefact (such as a resource or scheme of work).
-
This course aims to develop knowledge of image processing techniques to select appropriate processing techniques for images from a wide range of sources.
