Your students will need to know what their weeks look like to be able to manage their time. A weekly overview allows you to show what is self-directed / guided learning, live lectures or onsite sessions of the practical nature.

Below we have used the weekly summary example for Biomedical Science Year 2 to show:

Focus of this week's sessions:

We start off the year and semester with the rapidly developing field of Genomics where you'll learn about the fundamentals of human genetics and its applications to human health and disease. This week you'll have an introduction to the module and start your SDL on some common DNA techniques and technologies. You'll continue to develop your personal and academic skills in the PAS 3&4 module. Coming up this week is some important information related to your ICAs for this module and feedback on your Sem 2 exams. You'll also have your first tutorial, which is careers-based, which will help you to continue to plan for your next steps after graduation.
