The Induction Module is designed to help new students settle into university study and understand how learning is organised within the institution. Students are introduced to the online learning environment, key academic expectations, communication with faculty and peers, and the practical skills needed to manage their studies effectively.

The module provides an introduction to academic writing and study skills that students will use throughout their programme. Students learn how to structure written work, develop and support an academic argument, locate and use appropriate academic sources, reference correctly, and avoid plagiarism.

The assessment is specifically tailored to nursing students. Assessment topics are based on nursing-related issues, allowing students to apply the academic skills introduced in the module to subject matter relevant to nursing. Through the assessment, students practise finding and using academic evidence, organising their ideas, referencing sources, and presenting a clear academic response within a nursing context.

The module is self-paced and can be completed within a maximum period of two weeks. Students work through the sections in sequence and can organise their study time according to their individual schedule, provided that all required activities and assessment tasks are completed within the allocated period.
