PEER ASSISTED LEARNING (PAL)
The Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) is a student-to-student support scheme for First Year students taking Chemistry and First Year students taking Physics in the College of Science, Engineering and Food Science. This initiative involves two modules as follows: CM0003 (5 credits) and PY0003 (5 credits). These modules are intended to give recognition to the time and effort committed to the PAL initiative and the relevant module is credited to students participating in the PAL scheme as follows:
CM0003 is for PAL Leaders, i.e. Second or Third Year
students who have passed First Year Chemistry.
PY0003 is for PAL Leaders. PY0003 is delivered over Second and Third Year to students who have passed First Science Physics, but students are only formally registered in 3rd Year and any work completed during the module is only formally assessed in Third Year.
Note: These modules do not form part of the credit assessment of any degree programme but will be listed on the student's academic transcript subject to satisfactory completion of the module.
Students wishing to participate in this scheme should contact chemistry@ucc.ie for queries in relation to CM0003 and physics@ucc.ie for queries in relation to PY0003.
Module descriptions are contained in the Book of Modules, 2022/2023.
