o the workplace itself being recognised as a site of learning and knowledgeuction. This concept is an integral feature of the knowledge economy and the
ing intellectual capital of businesses has the potential to erode awarding bodies as
the dominant force in knowledge creation. If HE is to continue to make a
bution to the knowledge economy, collaborative activities based in and around the
place should be considered (Brennan, 2005).The challenge for global businesses is

nterprise skills and creativity of the workforce are likely to be a prerequisite. The
of technological change and market responses demand a continuous drive toate. Work based has a key role to play in supporting businesses to innovate.

2.3 Teaching Ethos
The colleges approach towards teaching and learning is simple and effective. The main aim of UKCBC is to assist learners in maximising their
potential by ensuring that they are taught clearly and effectively. This will enable students to engage in the learning environment and promote
success in both their academic studies and subsequent career.
2.3.1 Methods of Delivery:
LECTURES:
These will be developed around the key concepts as mentioned in the indicative course content and will use a range of live examples and cases
from business practice to demonstrate the application of theoretical concepts. This method is primarily used to identify and explain key aspect
of the subject so that learners can utilise their private study time more effectively.
SEMINARS:
These are in addition to the lectures. The seminars are designed to give learners the opportunity to test their understanding of the material
covered in the lectures and private study with the help of reference books. This methodology usually carries a set of questions identified in
advance. Seminars are interactive sessions led by the learners. This method of study gives the learner an excellent opportunity to clarify any
points of difficulty with the tutor and simultaneously develop their oral communication skills.
CASE STUDIES:An important learning methodology is the extensive use of case studies. They enable learners to apply the concepts that they
learn in their subjects. The learners have to study the case, analyse the facts presented and arrive at conclusions and recommendations. This
assists in the assessment of the learners ability to apply to the real world the tools and techniques of analysis which they have learnt. The case
study serves as a supplement to the theoretical knowledge imparted through the course work.
Plagiarism:
Any act of plagiarism will be seriously dealt with according to the colleges and awarding bodies regulations. In this context the definition and
scope of plagiarism are presented below:
Plagiarism is presenting someones work as your won. It includes copying information directly from the web or books without referencing the
material; submitting joint coursework as an individual effort; copying another students coursework; stealing coursework form another studentand submitting it as your own work. Suspected plagiarism will be investigated and if found to have occurred will be dealt with according to th
college procedure. (For further details please refer to the plagiarism policy and the student code of conduct.)
