[edit] Description Element (HEAR)

[edit] Provider Description

Use the following term:

  • providerStatus: Describes the legal status of the provider, for example as either a 'recognised body' or a 'listed body'.

[edit] Qualification Description

Use the following terms:

  • regulations: (mandatory) This description SHOULD include reference to the regulations concerning degree-awarding powers in the UK. The recommended text is: "The power to award degrees is regulated by law in the UK."

  • dualAward: (optional) If the qualification is a dual award, for example between two UK institutions or between a UK and European institution, give details here.

  • professionalStatus: (optional) Details of any rights to practise or other professional standing accorded to holders of the award. The institution MAY use a generic statement from a professional body or one of its own devising (see HEAR Guidance Document).

  • furtherStudy: (optional) Indicate if, within the country of origin, the qualification normally provides access (not admission) to further academic and/or professional study, especially leading to any specific qualifications, or levels of study. Include the grades or standards normally necessary to allow progression within the EHEA.

For example:

Access to postgraduate study: Bologna FQ-EHEA 3rd cycle PhD or MD.

Access to postgraduate study: Bologna FQ-EHEA 2nd cycle degree or diploma.

  • terminalAward: (optional) Specify if the qualification is a terminal (end) award or part of a hierarchy of awards.

[edit] Course Description

Use the following terms:

  • aim: Describe the aim(s) of the programme.

  • learningOutcome: Describe the overall learning outcome(s) of the programme.

  • specialFeature: Any particular features that help define the programme that are not covered elsewhere.

[edit] Presentation Description

Use the following terms:

  • accessRequirements: (mandatory) Details of the nature and length of qualifications or periods of study required before starting the programme. Producers MAY implement this content using 'boilerplate' text and a hyperlink to specific documents held elsewhere; in this case, implementers SHOULD have regard to the persistence of the hyperlinks and the associated content, for example: "Detailed information regarding admission to the programme is available in the University's on-line Prospectus at: www.easthampton.ac.uk/admissions/ugprospectus/06." See Guidance Document, section 3.3.

  • assessmentStrategy: Description of the type of assessment used in a module or course component, or in an assessment activity. Use of an encoding system with human-readable terms is preferred. [this may be redundant, because it is not structured enough for HEAR purposes, Alan Paull]

  • minimumStandards: (mandatory) Details of the regulations covering the minimum standards required to secure the qualification; therefore applies to the Programme only. See Guidance Document, section 4.2.

[edit] Assessment Description

  • gradingScheme: Information about the grading scheme used for the assessment of a presentation.

[edit] Additional Information Description

  • prizes: Information about university, professional and departmental prizes awarded to the learner.

  • additionalAwards: Information about academic (credit-based) and non-academic awards made to the learner.

  • recognisedActivities: Information about other recognised non-credit-bearing activities undertaken by the learner.

  • informationSources: Further information sources and references where more details on the qualification could be sought.

Alan Paull Do we need another description element here to cover any other eventualities?
