I&#8217;m<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> <\/span>a <span data-contrast=\"auto\">2nd-Year Global Development s<\/span>tudent, which means I was part of the first cohort to take this course. <span data-contrast=\"auto\">Although the course leaders were helpful <\/span>about <span data-contrast=\"auto\">what to expect<\/span> from the course<span data-contrast=\"auto\">, hearing from a c<\/span>urrent <span data-contrast=\"auto\">student can be v<\/span>ery <span data-contrast=\"auto\">beneficial. Therefore, I<\/span>&#8216;m here to tell you<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> the main elements of <\/span>my week as a <span data-contrast=\"auto\">Global Development student.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course Content&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In each year of the course, there will be a set of core modules<\/span>, as well as <span data-contrast=\"auto\">optional modules. As the course is run by three subjects \u2013 Geography, History and Politics \u2013 there is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/study\/undergraduate\/courses\/ba-global-development\/\">wide selection of optional modules<\/a> to choose from<\/span>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">In my first year, I chose to take three optional modules from each of these subjects<\/span>. T<span data-contrast=\"none\">his was so I did<\/span>n&#8217;t<span data-contrast=\"none\"> narrow my area of knowledge too much<\/span> when I<span data-contrast=\"none\"> have the luxury of studying an interdisciplinary degree.\u00a0<\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I also wanted to do this because I had not studied Politics or History before<\/span>. I was<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> worried that this would negatively affect me<\/span>, but I needn&#8217;t have. U<span data-contrast=\"auto\">niversity is about learning, and<\/span> <span data-contrast=\"auto\">everybody has <\/span>some <span data-contrast=\"auto\">gaps in their knowledge.<\/span> Choosing a range of modules<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> also helped me to discover what my interests were<\/span>. <span data-contrast=\"auto\">After completing my first year,<\/span> <span data-contrast=\"auto\">I r<\/span>ealised <span data-contrast=\"auto\">my interests lay more in Politics and History.<\/span> So, I chose not to take any Geography modules in my second year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <span data-contrast=\"auto\">biggest change from school to university was that <\/span>nobody was chasing me up for not working. Study is very independent here, meaning motivation comes from you. <span data-contrast=\"auto\">It is very easy t<\/span>o be distracted <span data-contrast=\"auto\">when there are so many events taking place around you<\/span>. Although these social and extracurricular activities are important, you do need to try to focus. I<span data-contrast=\"auto\">n a normal week, you need to put aside the time for independent study and treat university like a 9-5 job.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Opportunities&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span>for Global Development students<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The opportunities available to everyone in university are massive<\/span>! B<span data-contrast=\"auto\">u<\/span>t<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> as a Global Development student, you will be under three subjects, so<\/span> you will<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> <\/span>have access to even more.<span data-contrast=\"auto\"> I receive the weekly Learning Community Newsletter, which is delivered from Politics.<\/span> This <span data-contrast=\"auto\">advertises the events taking place that week that may be of interest. Some examples of this are \u201cReviewing \u2018White Fragility\u2019: Psychoanalysis with racism \u2013 Adam Phillips&#8217; Autumn Term Lecture\u201d event<\/span>. O<span data-contrast=\"auto\">r the \u201cVoice from the Global South \u2013 post-COP26 session\u201d online event. <\/span>It also acknowledges other things, such as <span data-contrast=\"auto\">the \u2018Political Duck\u2019, which is a\u00a0podcast run by the Politics Society. Other Global Development-related societies and general University societies can be found\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/yusu.org\/student-life\/clubs-and-socs#\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">here<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0if you would like to explore them.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Assessment&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I am writing this in early December, s<\/span>o <span data-contrast=\"auto\">I have just finished one of my assessments<\/span>. T<span data-contrast=\"auto\">herefore, it may be useful to hear about the type of assessment that is completed for a Global Development core module. In my Issues and Skills in Global Development module, it was required as a summative assessment (summative work is assessed and counts towards your final grade; formative work is used for feedback and does not count towards your final grade) to complete a group presentation. This was done as a debate<\/span>, <span data-contrast=\"auto\">presented in front of the rest of the cohort. Alongside this, we needed to individually complete a self-evaluation. This is one example of the type of assessment you would be required to complete<\/span>. Other assessments include <span data-contrast=\"auto\">essays and research projects.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I hope this blog has helped you understand more about what it is like to be a Global Development student at York, and you&nbsp;are excited to come join us here!
