Normally you will study one module at a time for two weeks (there are some exceptions). This approach allows you to focus on gaining an in-depth knowledge of the subject area by concentrating on one topic at a time. Module leaders and lecturers adopt different teaching styles in order to provide you with the knowledge and understanding required to be successful in your chosen area of study. Teaching is by interactive lectures, small group workshops or tutorials.

Most of the information and resources you will need for your modules will be stored on Moodle, our virtual learning environment. These will contain any reading lists, lecture notes and recordings of lectures for you to view.

Your personalised timetable will be available through Tabula (another online Warwick system) and you will also be able to view this through the My Warwick app. Tabula will only begin to display your personalised timetable once you have registered for your modules.

The more actively you participate in sessions, the more you will get from your course and overall student experience. You have a responsibility to yourself, as an independent learner, to be organised and proactive so that you are able to make the most of your time at Warwick.
