  • W - Workshop, practical work with a creative emphasis.
  • PASS - Peer Assisted Study Sessions

 

All or choice. If the letter is listed more than once without any number attached to it, attend all classes for that letter. Note in the example timetable above, you must attend both Contacts.

A number attached to a letter means you have a choice. For example, in optional tutorials in the example above, you attend one of the tutorials listed.

Lectures, tutorials or practical classes are sometimes streamed into groups, but require attendance at more than one session each week. You choose from stream 1 or 2 and attend all classes scheduled in that stream. In the example above for Group P1 you attend Mon 2pm - 3.50pm and Wed 2pm - 3.50pm, OR you choose to attend  Group P2 on Tue 12pm - 1.50pm and Thur 12pm - 1.50pm. The same material is taught in each of the groups.

You should note that some groups where you are allowed free choice are more popular than others and classrooms may be crowded at capacity in the first couple of weeks of semester until the deadline for changes of enrolment. Consider opting for the afternoon, evening or Friday groups where available, to improve your chances of a comfortable learning environment. as they may be less busy.
