Courses / Module

• As a result of this module, IF the student: 1) attends all lectures, diligently taking notes, and 2) completes all assigned readings, studying the concepts in those readings, and 3) completes all assigned work, giving full effort to that work, THEN (and only then) it is reasonable to assume that by the end of this module the student will:
• 1) be familiar with the existing anthropological research on international development;
• 2) learn to apply theoretical concepts to contexts of overseas charity and aid, thereby to more critically evaluate those practices;
• 3) refine to a final-year level skills in critical thinking and reading, and especially the skill of being able to express the student's own ideas in writing.

• 24 lecture hours

• Module Graded (numeric value) or Ungraded (Pass/Not Passed): Graded
• Continuous Assessment detail(s): Continuous assessment, equivalent to 4,000 words

• Pass standard: 40%
• Could the result of this module be capped? No
• 40
• Penalties: Unauthorised late continuous assessments will be penalised.

• The maximum mark awarded to a piece of continuous assessment submitted for the Autumn repeat examinations is 50%. This will apply except upon presentation of a medical certificate covering the relevant period or in other extremely extenuating circumstances, which must be communicated to, and accepted by, the lecturer prior to, or immediately after, the relevant deadline. Where applicable, Autumn repeat students may submit continuous assessment work by a date before the Autumn examination, which will be specified by the department. Students are responsible for familiarising themselves with this deadline. If students do not submit by the deadline, the existing continuous assessment mark will be carried forward to the Autumn. No continuous assessment work will be accepted after this date.

• AN111 & AN221, except for occasional students
