Oooh, she sounds like a right old bag.
Maybe talk to your tutor about it, as if you are ever looking to complete this course at a later date, it might be worth completing this particular module as then you'll have less to do if/when you go back. If its only just after Christmas then perhaps it wouldn't be so bad to stick it out. Obviously if you have appointments or are ill, then its tough titty, they can't expect you to go in. I really can't see how any module is that flipping essential to attend every lecture otherwise you'll let your peers down - sounds like scare tactics to me.....
Defo have a chat to your tutor whatever you decide though...
