Summary
This module consists of a series of tutorials for first-year students. It forms part of the personal tutor system within the School of Computer Science. There is one tutorial per week and they normally either take place in the personal tutor's office together with a handful of other first-year students assigned to the same personal tutor, forming a tutor group, or in a lecture theatre/online for plenary sessions.
There are two types of tutorials:
- General: covering academic life and practical aspects related to your studies.
- Module-specific: providing academic support for first-year modules.
The tutorials are timetabled centrally and will thus appear in the personalised timetables. All tutorials, except the ones designated as drop-in/office hours are compulsory. There are also compulsory associated elements of assessment; this may be in the form of Moodle quizzes, for example.
