Outreach and aspiration-raising opportunities from September 2011 to July 2012 at Greater Manchester Universities Aimhigher is changing the uni4me website (www.uni4me.co.uk) which will remain as a portal for information about activities and for resources for schools and colleges to use to promote higher education.

These vary between one day events or regular campus tours. Most are open to parents and carers as well as students. Groups or individuals can attend. Note that some events require advance booking.

  • Assessment and Marking: Case Studies from Other Institutions
    Title: Assessment and Marking: Case Studies from Other Institutions Date: January 2014 Author: Kevin Hewitt, Project Officer, DSE Enquiries: Kevin Hewitt, Project Officer, DSE Status: Final Introduction This report outlines the approach of a selection of other Universities to issues surrounding assessment and marking. In doing so, it gives an insight into the varieties of practice which exist across the sector and aims to inform possible future approaches at the University of Manchester. Four Universities have been chosen for the purpose of comparison – two from the Russell Group (Bristol and Liverpool) and two local Universities who have recently revised their approaches to assessment (MMU and Salford). The report concentrates on the following key issues, in line with the Project Charter for the Assessment and Marking Project: Timing, amount, structure and variety of assessment Marking and marking schemes Reassessment policies, including policies on reassessment overseas Note that this report focuses on assessment and marking for students on taught programmes. The assessment of students on research programmes is not covered here. Case Studies Case Study One – The University of Bristol The University of Bristol’s key policies on assessment can be found in their ‘Regulations and Code of Practice for Taught Programmes: Rules for Assessment, Progression and the Award of a Qualification.’1 Of all the regulations considered in this report, the University of Bristol’s are perhaps the most similar to the University of Manchester’s, but there

The addition of flavours and aromas have also proven to be popular with younger generations. In this communication we investigated the composition of the e-cigarette refills and assessed the biological effect of e-cigarettes refills on Beas2B (epithelium cells). We established that e-cigarette refills are complex mixtures of solvent vehicle, flavours with or without nicotine and their components are toxic towards the cells.
