Overview

The module is based on a combination of half day workshops and the use of online learning resources.

Reviewing the research on serious road policing offences

Road collisions and prevention strategies

In addition to the classes provided distance learning based material (this will include Panopto recordings, video resources and web based learning resources) will be provided via blackboard to supplement students learning. Students will be expected to access these resources following workshops in order to assist in the completion of assessment tasks and further explore key learning outcomes.

Assessment Strategy

-threshold -Acceptable work = Grades D+ to D- Very little critical analysis of relevant academic literature, legislation and police procedure Limited use of relevant texts and academic literature (texts suggested in class) Heavy reliance on real world examples and experiences to illustrate theory in practice Limited but accurate use of citation and quotation

-good -Good work = Grades B+ to C- Some critical analysis of relevant academic literature, legislation and police procedure Use of relevant texts and academic literature (texts suggested in class) General use of real world examples and experiences to illustrate theory in practice Accurate use of citation and quotation

-excellent -Excellent work = Grades A* to A- Significant critical analysis of relevant academic literature, legislation and police procedure Use of relevant texts and academic literature (including the texts suggested in class + other students have found through independent study) Where relevant use of real world examples and experiences to illustrate theory in practice Accurate use of citation and quotation.

Learning Outcomes

• Review the evidence base associated with serious road policing offences, and strategies associated with reducing the number of collisions

• Common causes of road collisions and how they can be reduced

• Evidence-base associated with serious road policing offences
