Cornwall Students on the Global Climate Change, Global and Imperial History and Physical Activity and the Environment pathways will spend a night at the University of Exeter Cornwall Campus (Tremough), near the historic port of Falmouth. The campus is home to undergraduate and postgraduate students studying a wide range of subjects as well as the Environment and Sustainability Institute whose interdisciplinary research focuses on the solutions to the problems of environmental change. Lectures will be given by University of Exeter faculty who are based at the Tremough Campus.

Academic content

Lectures/Seminars The latest programme timetable will be given to you on arrival. It contains details of all the lectures and the social programme. You will be notiďŹ ed if there are any changes to the programme after your arrival.

The aim of our teaching is not to tell you the â&#x20AC;&#x153;correctâ&#x20AC;? answer, but to explain the main points of a topic and encourage debate. This helps you to understand different arguments, make judgements about their merits and learn to analyse a topic critically. Participation is an important part of the learning process and it is important to do some reading before each seminar, so that you can follow and contribute to the discussion.

Independent study An important part of UK academic culture is independent study. This usually involves working on your own or in a small group to research a

topic and contribute to a seminar. Independent study is intended to develop skills such as critical analysis and problem-solving to develop your own ideas.

Group work Most of the pathways include group work designed to encourage team-working skills. As groups will include students from different countries, it is a good way of learning about working in a multi-cultural environment.

ACADEMIC CONTENT

ional internat school 2013 summer

Assessment Assessment for the majority of pathways consists of a presentation and/or an essay, to be submitted within two weeks of the end of the programme.

Plagiarism Plagiarism is presenting someone else’s words or ideas as your own. Whenever you use a quotation, or reproduce an author’s ideas you should reference the source. Plagiarism will not be tolerated in any form.

Exeter Learning Environment (ELE) Once you have registered you will have access to ‘ELE’, the University of Exeter’s on-line Virtual Learning Environment.

Support

Here you will find your reading list with links to articles and any lecture notes or course materials that lecturers may upload.

Certificates and Transcripts Certificates of attendance will be awarded at the end of the programme. Transcripts will be sent to students completing the assessment for their pathway in October, following the completion of our examination procedures. Provisional grades will be available in September.

If you have any problems with the academic content of the programme, please speak to Lyndon who will be able to assist you.

ional internat school 2013 summer www.stonehenge.co.uk Stonehenge is a 5,000 year old monument, composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones. Such is its importance; the site was added to the UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites in 1986. The methods used and the reasons for the construction of Stonehenge are largely unknown and there are many theories about them, often called the “mystery of Stonehenge”. It has been said that it would have taken 30 million man hours to complete. Proposed functions for the site include usage as an astronomical observatory, or as a religious site. Other theories have advanced supernatural or symbolic explanations for the construction. Stonehenge is a place of pilgrimage for people following pagan and nonpagan beliefs, such as neo-druids. It is the location for annual festivals marking the summer and winter solstices.

Salisbury The magnificent medieval city of Salisbury has it all â&#x20AC;&#x201C; historic streets and alleyways, charming halftimbered buildings, traditional English eating houses and characterful shopping streets, not to mention a superb range of attractions, including one of the UKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest medieval cathedrals.

Salisbury Cathedral The Cathedral was completed in 1258. It contains the best preserved of the four surviving copies of the Magna Carta (the English legal charter of 1215) and the oldest surviving mechanical clock in Britain. The Cathedral is easy to find as its spire is 123 metres tall and is visible from everywhere in the city. The spire can be seen from the inside on

a tower tour of the Cathedral. The Cathedral may be most recognisable for being the setting for Hogwarts in Harry Potter, which was written by Exeter alumnus J.K. Rowling. The surrounding Cathedral Close contains historic schools and houses, as well as museums that are worth a visit.

Shopping Salisbury has a mix of well known chain shops and smaller independent shops. On Saturdays it is worth paying a visit to the Charter Market to sample the products that have kept the market going for 800 years. The Salisbury Tourist Information Office is located at Fish Row, Salisbury, SP1 1EJ.

Global and Imperial History, Global Climate Change and Physical Activity students will travel to Falmouth for lectures on the Tremough Campus on 1 August. www.edenproject.com The Eden Project is one of the South-West’s most popular attractions as well as being a charity and social enterprise. The broader aim of the Eden Project is to educate people to live more sustainably and throughout the grounds you will find exhibits, art work and displays that illustrate the issues involved. The Eden Project also has regular music concerts and art festivals.

Created as a festival of plants, the centre is based around three domes, each representing a different climate. These domes, the largest greenhouses in the world, take visitors round the world’s flora. The tropical dome includes the biggest seed in the world, and a plant that can grow up to a metre a day, whilst the Mediterranean dome takes you across the equator to South Africa, and onwards to experience the Californian landscape.

Bath

Saturday 3 August Meet at the coach stop on North Park Road at 7.30am – coaches to depart at 7.45am. Coaches will depart Bath at 4.15pm for travel back to Exeter. www.visitbath.co.uk Bath is a historic city with a population of approximately 85,000 people. The city has been a world heritage site since 1987, recognising its international cultural significance, with 3.8 million tourists visiting the city every year, attracted by museums, theatres and other cultural attractions.

No visit to Bath is complete without a visit to Pulteney Bridge. Designed around 1770 by Robert Adam, the bridge is also a shopping arcade. It is one of only two bridges in Europe that serve this dual purpose, which explains why it is one of the main tourist attractions in Bath.

One of the main attractions is the baths and surrounding temple that were built by the Romans around the only naturally occurring hot springs in the United Kingdom. On a visit to the Roman Baths Museum it is possible to see Roman artefacts and learn more about how the original citizens of Bath lived. You can now sample the restorative waters yourself at the Thermae Bath Spa. Please note that the cost of entry to the museum and spa is not included in the daytrip.

Bath has an excellent reputation as a shopping destination, with shops to suit all tastes and styles. The award-winning Milsom Street is great for designer shopping, Green Park Station Market offers food and arts and crafts products, and the Southgate Centre (Bath’s new covered shopping development) is also worth a visit.

The city has many other museums and theatres, including the Theatre Royal; the Fashion Museum, which tells the story of fashion over the past 400 years; the Bath Postal Museum and the Jane Austen Centre, which tells the story of one of Britain’s most famous authors. The Victoria Art Gallery shows work by artists from the 15th century to the present day. You can also visit Sally Lunn’s Refreshment House for some food in the oldest house in Bath.

One of Bath’s most famous sights is the award-winning Royal Crescent, a beautiful collection of 30 residential houses. This reputation has encouraged film producers to include the Royal Crescent in recent films such as The Duchess. The Tourist Information Office can be found at Abbey Chambers, Abbey Churchyard, Bath, BA1 1LY.

St Ives Wednesday 7 August Meet at the coach stop on North Park Road at 7.30am – coaches to depart at 7.45am. Coaches will depart St Ives at 3.45pm for travel back to Exeter. www.stives-cornwall.co.uk St Ives is an old fishing town and thriving tourist destination set amongst the beautiful sandy beaches and rolling countryside of the Cornish coast. The town is a maze of small streets with a multitude of gift shops, cafés selling the world famous Cornish pasty and art galleries – all situated around a small harbour and headland. There is plenty to do, whether you like shopping, surfing, walking or art.

Beaches On the north coast of St Ives, Porthmeor Beach has a good reputation for surfing and its location is ideal for people also wanting to visit Tate St Ives. Porthgwidden Beach is another option that is located to the east of Porthmeor Beach. Porthminster Beach is to the southeast of St Ives and is the longest beach in the town. For those fancying a longer stroll, a walk along the coast will bring you to the wide expanse of Carbis Bay. There are also dramatic cliff top walks to the west of the town for those of you wanting to explore the wilder side of the Cornish coast. The harbour is a reminder of the fishing industry that the town used to thrive on. The harbour is also the location for the St Ives Lifeboat Station and the eighteenth

century Smeatons Pier. Alongside the harbour wall are a variety of shops, restaurants, fish and chip shops and also a small beach. A popular activity is taking an hour’s boat trip to Seal Island, 3.5 miles west of St Ives, where you can enjoy undisturbed seal watching. After leaving St Ives harbour, you will round the beautiful rugged Cornish cliffs and secluded coves, heading west to Seal Island. Tickets for the boat trip to Seal Island are purchased from outside the St Ives Lifeboat Station.
