A tutorial letter is our way of communicating with you about teaching, learning and assessment. Tutorial Letter 101/2018 contains important information about the scheme of work, resources and assignments for this module. We urge you to read it carefully and to keep it at hand when working through the study material, preparing assignments, preparing for the examination and addressing questions to your lecturers. This tutorial letter also provides all the information you need with regard to the prescribed study material. Please make sure that you obtain the prescribed material as soon as possible. It is suggested that you read Tutorial Letter 301 in combination with Tutorial Letter 101 as it gives you an idea of generally important information when studying at a distance and within a particular College. In Tutorial Letter 101, you will find the assignments and assessment criteria as well as information on the preparation and submission of assignments. You will also find important information about the examination in this tutorial letter.
