Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
1 x 3 hour seminar per week, beginning from week 1.
Material including presentation slides, practice questions and case studies (if any) will be available on MyUni prior to each seminar.
These on their own are not an adequate substitute for active participation and taking your own notes in the seminar. It is recommended that you take a copy of the presentation slides with you to class and use these as a basis for your own note-taking. Developing seminar notes is your own responsibility in this course. If you miss a seminar, you should ask a friend or acquaintance for notes.
There is an expectation that students will engage in additional readings, as well as the required text prior to the seminar to gain a full appreciation of all aspects of the course.

Student Feedback
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.

Fraud Awareness
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.
