The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Assessment Summary

Academic Progression Requirements

As defined by the Academic Progress by Coursework Students Policy, the MBBS is a yearly program

Progression from one year to the next in the MBBS is dependent on the student successfully completing an annual examination in which a full year’s learning is assessed.

To successfully complete the annual examination the student must pass the combined end of semester and end of year examinations, all hurdle requirements and have successfully completed all year level component courses (24 units).

To progress into Year 3 the student must pass MEDIC ST 2000A and 2000B - Second Year MBBS Examination Part 1 and Part 2 courses, and have successfully completed all year level components (24 units). Core courses in year 2 are MEDIC ST 2101A/B Scientific Basis of Medicine II, MEDIC ST 2102A/B Clinical Skills II, MEDIC ST 2103A/B Medical Professional & Personal Development II and MICRO 2506 - Medical Microbiology and Immunology II.

IF a student fails the compulsory examination course no passing grade will be received for any core medical studies courses.

IF a student has not completed all required MEDIC ST units of the year they must successfully complete an appropriate remedial course of the same or greater value as specified in Term 4 of the same academic year.

A student will only be eligible for summer school if the following criteria are met:
• The student does not have a recorded breach of genuine academic misconduct;
• The student has completed all formative and summative assessment tasks within the failed course;
• The student has attended more than 80% of teaching activities for which attendance is recorded across the academic year, within the failed course.

ASSESSMENT FOR BACHELOR OF MEDICINE AND BACHELOR OF SURGERY (MBBS)

The 最新糖心Vlog has chosen to adopt a mixed-mode approach to the conduct of final exams in 2021. This course will have an invigilated exam for Semester 1 2021. More information will be available in the coming weeks.

Assessment Task	Task Type	Due	Weighting (%)	Course Learning Outcome(s) Assessed
1. Professional Requirements Quiz	Summative Hurdle	Semester 1	0%	3.1, 3.2
2. Medical Knowledge and Reasoning Examination (MKR) 1*	Summative	Semester 1	30%	1.1 - 1.9, 2.1 - 2.3, 3.1, 3.2
3. Medical Knowledge and Reasoning Examination (MKR) 2*	Summative	Semester 2	45%	1.1 - 1.9, 2.1 - 2.3, 3.1, 3.2
4. OSCE	Summative	Semester 2	25%	1.1 - 1.9, 2.1 - 2.5, 3.1, 3.2

*The overall mark for MKR Examination is calculated by the combined mark for MKR 1 and MKR 2.

The MKR overall is a hurdle requirement and students must achieve 50% or greater for both for the MKR overall AND the composite total of all assessment tasks (MKR overall and OSCE) to be awarded NGP.

Students who achieve 50% or greater for the composite total of all assessment tasks (MKR overall and OSCE) but 45-49% for the MKR overall will be offered an additional assessment.

Students who achieve 50% or greater for the MKR but 45-49% for a composite total of all assessment tasks (MKR overall and OSCE) will be offered an additional assessment.

All additional assessments will take place during the Semester 2 replacement / additional examination period. The result of a passed additional assessment is 50%

The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Medicine Language and Learning is an optional course open to MBBS students which has an emphasis on effective communication, essential to the successful practice of medicine. This includes exploring the impact of culture on communication. It is designed for international students but is open to all students, regardless of language and cultural background. Delivery of the program is in small group sessions.
Further information about Medicine Language and Learning can be found in the course outline.

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
