We hope that you will find it both interesting and rewarding. We shall do our best to make your study of this module successful. You will be well on your way to success if you start studying early in the semester and resolve to do the assignments properly. You will receive a number of tutorial letters during the semester. A tutorial letter is our way of communicating with you about teaching, learning and assessment. Right from the start, we would like to point out that you must read all the tutorial letters you receive during the semester immediately and carefully, as the information they contain is always important and sometimes urgent. This tutorial letter contains important information about the scheme of work, resources and assignments for this module. We urge you to read it carefully and to keep it at hand when working through the study material, completing the assignments, preparing for the examination and addressing questions to your lecturers. In this tutorial letter, you will find the assignments as well as instructions on the preparation and submission of the assignments. It also provides all the information you need with regard to the prescribed study material and other resources, and how to obtain them. Please study this information carefully. Make sure that you obtain the prescribed material as soon as possible. Please read Tutorial Letter 301 in combination with this tutorial letter, as it contains important general information on studying at a distance and studying within a particular College. Please remember that this is a second-year semester module which carries 12 credits. This means that you need to spend 10 hours per week on this module. A semester is 12 weeks long and you therefore have 120 hours in which to study for this module. The last three or four weeks of the semester should be reserved for revision. We hope that you will enjoy this module and wish you all the best.
