COURSE CODING AND
EXPLANATION
Each of those streams of courses are coded with numbers 1 –
6 in the following manner:
1
= Foundation studies courses
2
= Curriculum studies courses
3
= Process studies courses
4
= Contextual studies courses
5
= Professional learning studies courses
6
= Elective studies courses
Under each stream, individual courses are sequentially coded
by numbers again. The letter coding denotes the school name in the University;
the digit before the dash represents the course stream; the first digit after
the dash represents the year level; the second digit after dash represents
semester in the academic year and the last two digits after dash denote the
sequence of the course in each stream.
For example in EDU1-1101;
EDU = Course from School of Education
1 before dash = Course from Foundation
studies stream
1 first after dash = Level 1 course
1 second after dash = Course runs in
semester 1
01 last two digits after dash = sequence
– the first course
in foundation stream.
Therefore this is the first foundation studies course
offered to level one students in semester one from the school of education.
