5 3. Programme Description 3.1 Overview The BA (Hons) Sports Business Management programme is designed to respond to an increasingly dynamic, challenging and competitive external environment. From a supply perspective, undergraduate provision nationally in the Sports subject area has, over the last decade, been characterised by a dramatic increase in both the number of institutions offering sport or sport-related programmes and the overall number of named Sports courses. However, courses that are specifically business oriented are less prevalent. This indicates that whilst there are well established courses (and institutions) offering traditional sports science/sports coaching courses, there are fewer operatives in the sports business and management field. This perhaps reflects the relatively new phenomenon of sport as business which has been a growing field of the industry since the mid-nineties. From a demand perspective, it can be perceived that sports courses with a management focus and an emphasis on developing students business knowledge and potential for employment, both generally and within the sports sector in particular are likely to be increasingly popular given the increased globalisation of the industry and increased commercialisation of sports organisations. Indeed, the aim of developing or preparing students that have an interest beyond sporting performance, for a career within sport or related sectors can be perceived as a key driver for this programme. Moreover, students applying for sports courses, whilst interested in the performance side of the industry are attracted by the potential to develop business knowledge and skills relevant to careers in sport and, in particular, the opportunity to gain practical experience through study visits and work experience. The BA (Hons) Sports Business Management programme is, therefore, designed to meet the business knowledge/skills expectations of students whilst retaining an interest in and study of sport from leisure to the high performance sectors. Students who successfully progress from the optional Professional Practice Module, will receive the award title BA (Hons) Sports Business Management (with Professional Practice) 3.2 Aims and Objectives The aims of the BA (Hons) Sports Business Management degree are to: 1. Provide a broad based business education with the sports industry as the focus of study; 2. Provide an education that explores the policy, planning, impact, management and delivery of sporting opportunities, particularly in a commercial context; 3. Develop skills for the critical analysis of sport, sport products, services and operations. The BA (Hons) Sports Business Management aims to provide students with the knowledge and critical understanding of sport as a social and economic phenomenon and to equip them with the appropriate skills and knowledge for a career in the sports industry. More specifically the programme aims to develop students knowledge and skills in two complementary areas. Firstly, it develops students knowledge and understanding of the sports industry its global structure and complexities, and the challenges and issues involved in reconciling government objectives with personal and community aspirations. Secondly it equips students with more general business and transferable skills necessary to become effective practitioners within the enabling businesses and infrastructures that make up the sports industry. Students have the opportunity to take options from their second year onwards which allow them to specialise in particular business functions (finance, HR, marketing, advertising or PR) or take a more generic route through optional units. The opportunity to undertake an optional 12-month work placement (Professional Practise) between Levels 5 and 6 allows students to further develop their Page 5/42

6 business / management knowledge and transferable skills within a real work environment, whilst significantly enhancing their employability on completion of the programme. The BA (Hons) Sports Business Management is distinctive in that the Lincoln International Business School aims to provide courses relevant to the management of various and distinct sectors of the economy. The bespoke nature of this course, which sets out from the start to deliver a programme that focuses on the business and management of the sports industry is both innovative and distinctive. 3.3 Variations to Standard Regulations and Guidance None Page 6/42

9 5. Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategies 5.1. Learning and Teaching Strategy The teaching and learning strategy adopted reflects the Business School s commitment to self-directed, research engaged and independent student-centred learning. We will emphasise and support the development of applied analytical skills and of creativity within a business context, both of which support the aims of Student as Producer, as part of our overarching aim to create independent and self-motivated learners. Moreover, in the context of PRME, there are three connected levels of knowledge and skills for responsible management: a. The scope of responsibility: an understanding of the interconnections between individuals, organisations and a better world. b. Necessary knowledge to practice responsibility and have effect. c. A learning process (pedagogy) that develops the above and embodies values of: i. First learning to learn, to have responsibility for self and immediate others and develop an understanding of global issues ii. Second, to learn to apply knowledge in reasoning and in action to have effect, to comprehend the responsibility that comes with professional status and power and to widen and deepen their perspective on responsibility with regard to their subject area. iii. Third, to be able to critique and create knowledge in concept and in practice that embeds responsibility, to seek to change society for the better and to develop a greater depth of understanding of the complexity and inter-relatedness of global challenges. Furthermore, the programme has been developed to reflect staff research interests and expertise, facilitating both research informed teaching and research engaged learning. The range of teaching and learning methods described in the module outlines is matched by a varied diet of assessment methods designed to achieve a balanced student experience. Thus, learning situations are varied within the programme, reflecting the diversity of learning resources and the integration of learning and teaching processes. Staff attempt to develop appropriate and supportive learning materials that are suitable for students with a variety of backgrounds. The Business School s students include many from overseas for whom English is not a first language. An extensive network of support measures for international students has been put into place, including language tuition, peer-to-peer mentoring, small group tuition in mixed groups, project-based learning, and an international social programme designed to enhance cultural awareness. The School s Internationalisation agenda and support for international students continues to develop and is reflected in a curriculum which is international and not UK or Europe-centred. Whilst Investigating the Experience Economy module has been designed to facilitate the acquisition of transferable skills and the notion of the 'responsible' manager is contextualised in the Foundations of Sport Management, students will also be supported through the personal tutoring framework. Personal tutoring will not only provide pastoral support but a further space within which students can develop as reflective learners. A range of teaching and learning methods are used in the programme. Lectures are designed to introduce students to key themes and perspectives, to generate enthusiasm for further enquiry and research, to provide illustrative examples and case studies, and to signpost important issues such as sustainability and responsible behaviour in business. All lectures and seminars are supported by Page 9/42

10 additional materials on the module Blackboard sites; the use of this resource includes provision of course materials, notices, study guides, centre and conferencing, off-campus learning, supportive learning packages, use of blogs and wikis facilitate collaboration and group communication. Visiting speakers provide specialist expertise and current application of knowledge in a range of units and cross-unit areas. Seminars, workshops and projects offer students interactive learning opportunities and are aimed at deepening critical understanding and analysis. Sessions include tutor and student-led discussions, presentations, and problem solving exercises. The format adopted by each module is detailed in the module booklets where topics, tasks and assessment methodologies are clearly articulated. One-to-one support is available to all students to aid understanding and support learning. Feedback on progress is available at each stage and is used to resolve any particular learning difficulties Assessment Strategy The assessment strategy adopted within the programme follows the principle within the Lincoln Business School that a range of types of assessment should be offered. Within this context, it is imperative that all assessments contribute in a balanced way to the learning outcomes at programme level, as well as providing assessments of outcomes specific to each module. Moreover, in line with QAA principles, assessment is effectively integral to teaching and learning strategy. Therefore, the programme team views assessment as an integral part of the learning process, and it is considered to be instrumental in the achievement of successful learning in all programmes. The programme adopts a range of formative and summative assessment strategies. The variety in assessment reflects both the broad span of learning outcomes appropriate to the programme and the varying learning styles of our students. The strategy for assessment for the programme includes the use of 'formative' assessments to provide a key element of the learning experience. It also is designed to stagger the submission dates to provide a balanced study workload throughout the terms. The programme operates an appropriate overall assessment load per student per module. At level 4 this is determined to be a nominal 2500 words per 15 CATs, increasing to 3500 at levels 5 and 6. Where students submit written work it is submitted electronically via Blackboard and subject to similarity checks via Turnitin. Feedback on written assessment is often delivered electronically. Lincoln International Business School has agreed group work protocols and guidelines which manage the extent and appropriateness of group assessment at programme and module level. These are consistent with those established by CERD/EDEU (2010), are designed to ensure congruity between learning outcomes and group assessment, provide guidelines, for dealing with group processes, (including group formation, monitoring, review, peer assessment and process failure) and ensuring these are documented in Programme Handbooks and Module Guides. These guidelines are subject to annual monitoring and review. Overall, the objective of the assessment strategy is to ensure that intended learning outcomes of the programme are tested appropriately through the assessment process. The details of the form of assessments together with the weightings for each component, are included in the individual module descriptors. Page 10/42
