Assessment Strategy

-threshold -Grades D- to D+ Work displays satisfactory knowledge and understanding of the facts and principles specific to the topics covered in this module and the outcomes being assessed, reflecting a satsifactory level ofbackground study. Presentation, communication and are satisfactory. The work contains some irrelevantmaterial and weaknesses in structure. A grade of D- is required to pass assessements.

-good -Very good, Grades B- to B+ Work displays very good knowledge and understanding of the facts and principles specific to the topics covered in this module and the outcomes being assessed, reflecting a good level ofbackground study. The work is focussed, well structured and logically presented. There is some originalinterpretation and demonstration of links between topics. The work is presented to a very good standard with goodcommunication and minimal factual or computational errors.Good, Grades C- to C+ Work displays good knowledge and understanding of the facts and principles specific to the topics covered in this module and the outcomes being assessed, reflecting a good level ofbackground study. The work is focussed, mostly structured and overall, logically presented. There is some original, though mimimal, interpretation and demonstration of links between topics. The work is presented to a good standard with goodcommunication but with some factual or computational errors.

-excellent -Grade A- to A* Work displays excellent comprehensive knowledge and detailed understanding of the facts and principles specific to the topics covered in this module and the outcomes being assessed, reflecting extensivebackground study. The work is highly focussed, well structured, logically presented with discussion of evidence based information. The work contains original interpretation and new linksbetween topics are developed.The work is presented to a high standard with accuratecommunication and no factual or computational errors.

Learning Outcomes

• Critically demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the importance of optimising normal physiological processes, supporting safe, physical, psychological, social and cultural situations.

• Discuss how a midwife, in partnership with the woman and members of the multidisciplinary team, plans and carries out ongoing integrated assessment, individualised care planning and evaluation for both the woman and the newborn infant.

• Discuss normal physiological processes in fetal development, and newborn and maternal adaptations during childbirth, demonstrating knowledge and understanding of deviations from these.

• Use evidence based practice approaches to respond appropriately to signs of compromise and deterioration in the woman, fetus, and newborn infant.
