3. Programme Description
3.1 Overview
3.2 Aims and Objectives
The BA (Hons) History programme aims to:
• Deepen students’ understanding of past societies and cultures
• Enable students to acquire skills of critical analysis of both primary and secondary sources
• Foster in students an appreciation of the contested nature of historical enquiry and interpretation
• Develop in students a range of personal and transferable skills relevant to employability and lifelong
learning
A knowledge of the past is vital for individuals, organisations and society, both as a creative resource,
and for a deeper understanding of the building blocks of identity on the regional, national and
international level. Rival claims on contemporary power often rest in part on competing interpretations
of the past. Knowledge of the past can therefore be used to inform current debates. In addition,
students of history acquire skills of analysis, argument and communication which help them to
develop as individuals, as responsible contributors to organisations, and as articulate, critical
members of a democratic society.
The BA (Hons) History programme is distinctive in that it provides students with the opportunity to
engage with a wide range of chronological periods and explore differing territories, whilst providing
them with core linking themes, most notably, through strands entitled ‘Concepts and Debates’,
‘Historical Skills’ and ‘Sources and Methods’. Students are able also to select modules located
within the following strands: ‘American History’, ‘Culture and Identity’ and ‘State and Society’. A
key component of the programme is the emphasis placed upon primary source analysis. Within the
programme, a variety of assessment forms are used – from traditional essays and examinations to
presentations, critical book reviews and projects. The aim is to provide students with a wide variety of
high-level skills which will enhance their employability at the end of their degree studies.
QAA Subject Benchmark Statement(s):
The BA (Hons) History programme responds to the United Kingdom QAA benchmark statement(s) for
the subject of History. Benchmarking Analysis provides a detailed specification of the relationship
between this programme's curriculum and the relevant QAA benchmark.
Internal contexts:
The BA (Hons) History degree programme is located within the Department of Humanities and forms
part of a suite of related subjects, including American Studies, English, and Media, Culture and
Communications. History has been taught as an undergraduate subject at the University and its
predecessor institutions for many years, often as part of a joint honours Humanities-related
undergraduate course. In recent years, however, the subject has been taught as a single as well as a
joint honours subject. Undergraduate numbers have grown significantly since the single honours
degree was first offered in 1999, when a cohort of approximately 15 single honours students began
the course. In 2007-8, some 60 single honours History students enrolled on the first year of the
undergraduate programme. In recent years, in part as a response to the growth of undergraduate
student numbers, academic staffing has been increased. This has enabled an expansion of the
programme in terms of both its chronological and territorial range. The undergraduate History
programme forms a key part of the History provision at Lincoln. Since 2005, the History portfolio has
Document Generated on 14 November 2014
Page 5/40
University of Lincoln Programme Specification - Bachelor of Arts with Honours (BA (Hons)) History
been extended with the delivery of a MA in Historical Studies. A number of History postgraduate
research students are also enrolled in the Department of Humanities.
The undergraduate History programme at Lincoln is delivered in an increasingly research-orientated
environment. The undergraduate programme has been developed so as to allow students to benefit
as much as possible from the research enthusiasms of the academic staff. A number of History
academic staff contribute to the work of one of the Faculty’s research centres. Established in 2005,
the Centre for Regional and Local History is devoted to the study of regional and local history in an
international context; and to informing the history of Lincolnshire and the East Midlands by placing it
in that wider setting. The Centre supports a range of publication and research activities, including the
International Journal of Regional and Local Studies. A number of day schools and conferences have
been held under the auspices of the Centre, including, in 2007, the Northern Women’s History Day
School and the international symposium Radical Cultures and Local Identities.
The Centre also has strong links with regional and local history in the East Midlands and Lincolnshire
and co-operates closely with Lincoln Record Society, the Survey of Lincoln, and the new county
museum. An annual local history conference is organised in association with the Society for
Lincolnshire History and Archaeology. In recent years members of the Centre have supervised a
number of postgraduate students who have successfully completed research degrees. Topics have
included ‘Lincolnshire rural women workers’ and ‘The exercise of power: the case of Grimsby
1840-1900’. Current postgraduate research projects with a local and/or regional dimension include,
‘Lincolnshire population trends in the second half of the nineteenth century’, ‘Changing agricultural
practice in twentieth century Lincolnshire’ and ‘Bishop Thomas Watson of Lincoln’.
External contexts:
In recent years, as HESA statistics indicate, there has been a steady growth in full-time
undergraduate History students. In 2002-3, 30,675 full-time students studied the subject at
undergraduate level. This had increased to 34,080 in 2005-6. The expansion of the subject at Lincoln
over this period has exceeded this national pattern of growth. At national level, the subject of History
is buoyant, with much interest in the subject clearly being expressed through a variety of popular
cultural forms, most notably on television and in the proliferation of popular history books. The
flowering of ‘public history’ is explored within a number of modules which comprise the
undergraduate History programme at Lincoln. Within the locality, the pursuit of History is of significant
cultural importance. The city and surrounding region has a range of thriving History-related societies.
The delivery of History-related programmes at Lincoln in part both enables this local demand to be
met and also provides opportunities for a variety of fruitful University and community engagements
and projects to be undertaken.

5. Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategies
5.1. Learning and Teaching Strategy
The learning and teaching strategy adopted within the BA (Hons) History programme is set out
below.
Intellectual independence is one of the most important qualities of mind of the history student. By the
time students graduate, they will be expected to think of themselves as independent learners. History
modules will encourage and support them to achieve this by using flexible and varied means of
teaching, learning and assessment. Students will learn to work in groups and individually, to produce
reports, essays and book reviews, to assess themselves and their peers and to give presentations.
They will learn to identify, use and evaluate a wide variety of source materials including personal
testimony, photographs, newspapers, CD ROM’s and on-line sources, novels, films and government
documents. They will have the opportunity to work extensively with new technologies including the
use and creation of multimedia packages in relation to the subject matter of history.
The degree reflects the University's primary objective 'to be recognised for teaching and learning that
is informed by research' [Strategic Plan Overview 2007 - 12, p.2]. Several modules are directly linked
to staff research interests, such as the level two modules ‘Environmental History’; ‘The Birth of the
Modern Age?’ and, at level three, modules including ‘The Middle class and Urban Britain,
1780-1900’, ‘Coal, Culture and Community’. Other modules are pre-empting new research, such as
the ‘Representations of the First World War’ module. There is also an emphasis throughout the
programme on positioning the students as active participants in the research process both through
the ‘Sources and Methods’ strand where heavy emphasis is laid upon techniques for historical
research and also through assessment strategies, which include the production of primary
research-informed outputs, culminating at level three in the production of work such as the
independent study and oral history project. Such assessment forms involve students as active
participants in collaborative or individual research projects.
History modules incorporate a wide range of teaching, learning and assessment methods, reflecting
the broad nature of the learning outcomes for the subject. At all levels, lectures with follow-up
seminars are the norm in most modules, though there are workshops for more practical,
primary-source driven work. The seminar is the core teaching and learning activity, as it is seen as
the most effective way of encouraging active debate rather than the passive acquisition of
information. Although a good deal of work is tutor-led at first, student independence is encouraged.
Student choice is one of the ways in which this is achieved: choice within modules, and, in the final
year of study, choice between modules. The Independent Study at level three is taught through
individual tutorials, a teaching method not employed at earlier levels. At this stage, students are
expected to be able to manage the process of setting up a research topic, and negotiating the
management and completion of the project with the tutor.
Student progression is ensured through a developing set of learning outcomes at each level.
At level one, students are expected to:
• identify and locate appropriate source materials within the university
• start to evaluate primary source materials
• show an awareness of theories and concepts of history
• identify arguments in secondary material
• identify appropriate forms of analysis and enquiry
Document Generated on 14 November 2014
Page 9/40
University of Lincoln Programme Specification - Bachelor of Arts with Honours (BA (Hons)) History
In addition, they will make some progress in IT, group work, presentations, and written work of
various kinds.
At level two, students are expected to:
• gather, assimilate and interpret appropriate material from a wider variety of sources
• deepen their critical analysis of primary sources, and use them more extensively
• identify and analyse key themes and arguments in secondary material
• recognise and appraise a range of theoretical perspectives
• design and manage a more complex research project
• demonstrate capacity for independent learning and reflection
• demonstrate enhanced skills in group work, presentation, IT and written work
At level three, students are expected to:
• engage in independent research using a wide variety of source both readily available and more
difficult to access
• be able to manage large amounts of information
• explain and evaluate the relationships between primary and secondary material
• appreciate and critically evaluate current and past debates within the study of history
• be aware of different historical methodologies
• be aware of continuity and change over various time spans
• develop a cogent argument of their own in relation to issues and debates, and to support this
argument thoroughly
• show a high level of critical reflection upon their own work
• evaluate and apply theoretical frameworks themselves
• show high levels of communication skills in writing and presentation
• work as a highly effective group member
The learning outcomes for individual modules encompass these points, as well as outcomes of
subject knowledge.
Personal Development Planning (PDP)
As outlined in the QAA documentation relating to PDP processes, these will complement the formal
curriculum by: ‘helping students to:
• reflect critically on their own learning, behaviours and achievements;
• be more independent and effective learners and value their own capability through improved
self-awareness;
• motivate themselves;
• be aware of how they can apply their learning in contexts other than the academic curriculum;
• enhance their ability to present themselves to others;
• improve their employability;
• and encourage a positive attitude to the idea of learning throughout life.
PDP is likely to involve an individual in:
• gathering information on learning experiences and achievement;
• reflecting on learning experiences and achievement;
• identifying new learning needs and creating development plans;
• reviewing their progress towards the achievement of goals they have set.
and develop their capacity to:
Document Generated on 14 November 2014
Page 10/40
University of Lincoln Programme Specification - Bachelor of Arts with Honours (BA (Hons)) History
• recognise, value and evidence their own learning in academic and non-academic contexts;
• evaluate and recognise their own strengths and weaknesses and identify ways in which perceived
weaknesses might be improved and strengths enhanced;
• utilise their own records and evidence of learning to demonstrate to others what they know and can
do;
• recognise how achievements that are not part of an academic programme might be accredited;
• plan and take responsibility for their personal, educational and career development.
Characteristics of effective PDP practice:
The key lesson from institutions that have already implemented such policies in higher education is
that PDP should be integral to learning. Students do not participate in such processes for altruistic
reasons: they have to perceive the investment they make will be valued.
PDP is likely to be most effective when it is:
• a mainstream academic activity
• linked to the learning objectives/ outcomes of programmes
• undertaken regularly
• supported and valued by staff
• supported by institutional structures, resources and expertise
• owned by the learner
• seen to be valued by society (e.g. employers and Professional Bodies)
Students are more likely to value PDP if they see that academic staff themselves are involved in PDP
processes, e.g. through appraisal and development policies or portfolio building linked to professional
accreditation or CPD requirements.’
In order to embed PDP as fully as possible within the History programme, the following measures will
be undertaken, in line with the practice outlined in the QAA recommendations:
• at the start of a programme, students will be introduced to the opportunities for PDP, through the
induction process, the use of academic tutors and through the first year unit Communication Skills.
Students will be allocated an academic tutor whom they will be able to contact regarding their
academic work throughout their degree studies.
• students will be provided with opportunities for PDP at each stage of their programme, most notably
in Historical Communication Skills at level one; Career Planning and Independent Study Preparation
at level two; and Independent Study at level three.
• the rationale for PDP at different stages of a programme will be explained for the benefit of students
(e.g. in level handbooks and module guides);
On completion of their programme students will have:
• participated in PDP in a range of learning contexts at each stage or level of their programme;
• demonstrated that they can access and use the aids and tools provided by the institution to help
them reflect upon their own learning and achievements and to plan for their own personal,
educational and career development;
• with support, created their own learning records containing information on the qualities and skills
they can evidence which can be drawn upon when applying for a job or further study.
General:
• The primary responsibility for developing, updating and maintaining their Personal Learning
Records rests with the individual student, with staff support.

• Students are introduced to PDP its purposes, obligations and anticipated benefits, at an early point
in their HE experience.
Career planning and advice is embedded into the programme: at level two, for instance, students
undertake a module exploring Career Planning and Independent Study Preparation, which ensures
that due attention is paid to life following graduation. As part of this process, the critical self-reflection
which is a central element of PDP is tested. At the outset of level three, as part of the induction
process, careers advice and resources associated with careers are brought to the attention of
students at a critical point in their studies. Within the Faculty, a Writing Centre has been established
in order to aid students with writing challenges, which may have been identified by academic staff in
feedback. The Writing Centre is staffed by a Royal Literary Fellow who is attached to the Faculty. The
Faculty aims to continue the operation of the Centre once the Royal Literary Fellowship funding
expires. This facility operates in addition to the University’s disability service, DART, which inter alia
provides support for students with dyslexia.
5.2. Assessment Strategy
The assessment strategy adopted within the BA (Hons) History programme is designed to allow
students to demonstrate their achievement of the above learning outcomes, and therefore
incorporates a variety of methods. Different skills are called for in examinations, presentations,
projects, book reviews, portfolios and essays. Each level offers a range of these assessment
methods. To a certain extent, there is more emphasis on independent work in level three, and more
on tutor-led work in level one, but the aim has been to allow students to experience all kinds of
assessment from the outset. Although considerable emphasis is placed on the essay as a significant
format for the assessment of skills of debate, argument and evidence, a variety of forms of
assessment are used to test different learning outcomes. The programme includes coursework and
timed examinations (involving both seen and unseen papers).
Assessment Map gives a top-level indication of the scheduling and distribution of assessment modes
within the programme. Details of module assessment strategy are included with each module
specification.
Assessment weightings vary within modules. In assigning weighting to assessment components, due
attention has been paid to the number of learning outcomes being tested. Care has been taken to
ensure that there is broad comparability between the assessment diets associated with modules at
the same level. The programme team members have also sought to ensure that, within the options
presented, there is a wide variety of assessment methods from which to select. As a guiding
principle, students will have the opportunity throughout the programme to build upon the assessment
experiences they have gained earlier in their studies.
