 This course is taught through problem-based learning, at least for the core modules. Problem-based learning is just a way of giving context to your learning. We start from a real-world problem. We're divided up into groups for a module and then within that group we're given a problem. That gives a fixed point which to hang new information. It's also quite motivating and you actually want to find a solution. There's a goal to work towards so when you do get that goal you get the sense of satisfaction. Other than people spoon-feeding you things, you have to go away and learn it yourself and then come back and discuss it with your group. The problem is a profy body wrap. It's a treatment to aid in taking off inches, changing body shape, size, contour, as well as tightening and toning the skin. It's at the control by a micro-pressor so we can say whether that's the potential. We're looking at a therapy in which you wrap the body in a elastic band and you heat the body and this is meant to increase blood circulation and cleanse the cells. What students do is to tackle real-world problems from the beginning in the way that scientists actually practice, that's to say from a research perspective. Do we really need to know the distribution? Well isn't this elastic band only supposed to be put on one part of the body? I find it more fun because when I'm sitting in lectures, I don't know about anyone else but when I'm sitting there after about 15-20 minutes I start yawning even if I find it interesting. Whereas this way we have maybe like 15 minutes of someone talking to us and then we're talking as a group and interacting with each other which is the most important part and we're learning from each other and then if we do happen to get stuck we can always go to someone for help or ask for an expert session. Is that something we could look up? We call the degree a paperless degree, it's not quite paperless but we're aiming in that direction. We'd loan students for the duration of their programme a tablet PC. The things that we have to learn about usually are incorrect in books, we'd have to carry around in theory like biology, chemistry and physics textbooks. We've got the internet on our tablet PCs which we can use to research them and because of our tablet PCs we can flip them around, pin them down and use them as notepads as well. The whole course is done on the tablet PC, everything is electronic, the way we communicate, the way we work amongst ourselves as a team and with the faculty. It's a lot more efficient, it'd be a lot more difficult to do with pen and paper. OK right, I think we're ready to report our conclusions on this one then. I've been discussed and read the problem that this body heat wrap treatment is completely rubbish and that they're actually doing it the wrong way around. Like if you're colder and you're sitting there idle your body will start to burn the facts and that will make you lose weight but if you're hot then your body will lower its metabolism where this says it will increase your metabolism. Rather than having to be hard headed and just saying you know I'm right, you're not, you know this helps you understand everyone else and other people's way of thinking. Everybody tends to have their moment to shine, it doesn't really matter what the skill set of the other students are there will be a part where I'll be useful and I'll be able to bring my knowledge to bear on the problem. You need to know the distribution of heat as well. You're actually going in there and figuring out things for yourself and then I think from that you tend to remember things a lot better because you're like oh that makes sense instead of like being told this is this.
