They might learn from one of the self-directed study materials in the library. These include books, videotapes and interactive computer-based learning programs. They might join one of the induction courses or special 'I.T. Entitlement' courses that are offered. Full details of the times and dates of these courses are available from the computing service and are advertised in College computer rooms and on the appropriate web pages. There are no formal exams or tests.
Students are responsible for assessing their own progress.
Since there is no formal assessment, failure to take advantage of the opportunities available will never of itself lead to failure of a course. However, a student might be at a disadvantage academically if their I.T. skills are not as good as those of fellow students. A student who had previously ignored the opportunities available to learn word-processing could then be in difficulty. If you have any further questions about the I.T. entitlement, ask your course tutor. Alternatively, contact the computing service who will be pleased to help.
