Welcome to this module! We hope you will find it both interesting and rewarding. We will do our best to support
you with your studies to be successful. You can start off to complete your assignments on time and then to start
studying for the examination as soon as possible. You will receive a number of tutorial letters during the
semester. By way of these tutorial letters we will communicate 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 they always contain important and sometimes urgent information.
This particular 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 while preparing the assignment(s), preparing for the examination and addressing questions to
your lecturers. Please read Tutorial Letter 301/2015 together with this tutorial letter as it provides general
important information when studying at a distance and within a particular College.
Apart of the instructions on the preparations and submission of the assignments in this tutorial letter (101), you
will also find the assessment criteria. It also provides all the information you need with regard to the prescribed
study material and other resources and how and where to obtain them. Please study this information carefully
and make sure that you buy the prescribed material as soon as possible.
We have also included certain general and administrative information about this module. Please study the
specific part of the tutorial letter carefully.
We hope that you will enjoy studying this module and we wish you all the best!
