They are not an indication of what you must deliver or an example of the ideal manner in which to deliver the Essential Content. Rather, we hope that these SOW will give you ideas as to the types of teaching and learning activities that might be employed to meet the requirements of providing the requisite Guided Learning Hours (GLH) for the unit. You should ensure that the SOW you produce foryour course are appropriate to your students, programme delivery plan, resources and local needs.  \n2 How to Read the SOW  \nIn order to support consistency across our qualifications, in developing these SOW, we have taken a simple approach to the structure of the SOW. This is:  \n• A 15-credit unit requires 60 GLH  \n• To deliver 60 GLH we define 20 3-hour teaching sessions  \n• 20 sessions x 3-hours = 60 GLH Similarly, for a 30-credit unit:  \n• A 30-credit unit requires 120 GLH  \n• To deliver 120 GLH we define 40 3-hour teaching sessions  \n• 40 sessions x 3-hours = 120 GLH  \nThis is not intended to dictate the way that you may deliver the GLH. Depending on your mode of delivery (full-time, part-time, etc.), timetable, resources and approach to the subject, you will develop your own pattern of delivery.  \nKeep in mind that while we are using a standard length of time for each taught session, this is not required. You may find that it is necessary, or desirable, to vary the length of taught sessions; in order to provide students with a vari","cbCainGcBfw8kHQq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainGcBfw8kHQq","pdf",617334,77,"English","# Introduction\n# How to Read the SOW\n# Learning Outcomes and Assessment\n# SOW Sessions\n# Frequently Asked Questions\n# Schemes of Work\n## Unit 1: Fundamentals of Laboratory Techniques\n## Unit 2: Data Handling Approaches and Techniques\n## Unit 3: Regulation and Quality in the Applied Sciences\n## Unit 27: Analysis of Scientific Data and Information\n## Unit 28: Applied Sciences Research Project","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Example Schemes of Work (SOW) in this document?\",\"answer\":\"They provide insight into how to structure delivery of the Essential Content for the units within the Higher National Qualification.
