Assessment
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
Requirements for Year 5 of the MBBS Program
To complete Year 5 students must achieve a Non-Graded Pass (NGP) in the Y5 Examination course (end of semester summative assessments) and have successfully completed all year level component course placements (24 units) as per below.
Requirements to achieve a NGP in MEDIC ST 5000AHO/BHO:
Assessment Task Task Type Weighting (%) Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE)* Summative 50 MCQ paper Summative 50
To pass MEDIC ST 5000 AHO/BHO, the combined score after standard setting adjustments of the OSCE (conducted over two semesters) and the end of year MCQ paper must be at least 50% per the weighting above. Students who have a combined score, after standard setting adjustments, in the range of 45%-49% will be offered additional assessment to provide a further opportunity to demonstrate their level of competence. Students who have a combined score, after standard setting adjustments, of 50% or above, but have a score for either the OSCE (over two semesters), or the end of year MCQ paper, that is less than 45% will be offered additional assessment in that component to provide a further opportunity to demonstrate their level of competence. Following additional assessment, a combined score of 50% or greater (after standard setting), with the score in no single element less than 45% (after standard setting) is required for progression. However, even if the score is > 50% the maximum score result recorded for additional assessment is 50% and an overall pass in the examination 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.
