TEACHING METHODS, ASSESSMENTS AND EXAMINATIONS NIMS employs a vast variety of instruction methods. In the early stage, there are lectures which are complemented by practical workshops, seminars or tutorials. Other teaching methods used include role-plays, case studies, practical exercises, computer lab, visits to companies and other organisation and analysis of video-based materials of real-life events. The emphasis throughout is on the variety and diversity of both teaching methods and teaching materials. Students' opinion is regularly surveyed to gain feedback on how we might improve our courses. Various methods are used to assess students, often reflecting the nature of the course material covered. Some units emphasise formal examinations, perhaps combined with coursework, which might take the form of an essay or small group projects. Other types of assessment include individual projects or portfolios worked on over several weeks.
