Does anyone know if the NNAS section c: hours breakdown domain, are the hours definitely only the time you spent face to face in lectures and not how many hours the course is weighted at?
For instance: most of my courses are worth "12 units" which is equivalent to 150 hours of focused learning. But that subject you only had a 2 hour lecture once per week for 13 weeks, equalling 26 hours for that semester. That's a big difference.
My uni told me today that when they assess Canadian degree's and American nursing degree's they go by unit weighted hours, being the 150 hours not there class room time, as there is so much self directed learning and reading material pre classes ect.
The NNAS has said you're only allowed the time you are physically in a class room, and no other time in studying or reading, engaging in online discussions within your assessments. I am wondering if she is wrong?
What has other people's uni put down?
