  • Learning & Teaching Activities
    Learning & Teaching Modes
    Seminar style discussion meetings and project supervision by academic staff and project clients.
    Workload

    The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

    20 hours per week per student.
    Learning Activities Summary
    This is a project course and most of the learning acivities will be embeded in the project related activities that involving team work on the assigned project tasks, general course meetings with the teaching staff, projet meetings with the project clients, and academic consultation meetings with the teaching staff. Following are the details about the meetings that are expected to drive the learning activities. 

    General course and project related combined meetings usually last 1.5 to 2 hour. The duration of each team’s academic supervision meeting varies depending upon the nature and stage of a project and the needs of a team (or the needs of each individual member in each team) – expect 45-60 minutes each week at a mutually agreed time and place. Each team will also have project progress meetings with their project client(s) – such meetings will focus on the assigned topic and its related system to be developed and evaluated. Each of these meetings will last 45-60 minutes. It is expected that each team prepares and shares with teaching staff detailed minutes of the project meetings held with the clients.

    The members of each project team are encouraged to spend at least 10-12 hours each week in a lab working together. If they need help during the lab work, they can send a request to the teaching staff for a meeting in the lab. However, such requests will only be accommodated depending upon the availability of the time of the teaching staff. Each student can make an appointment to meet the teaching staff for discussing project’s technical or logistical issues. It is encouraged that the whole team meets the teacher together or at least keep the other team members posted about the discussion points and the outcomes.
  • Assessment

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

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

    Assessment Summary
    Following are the components of the assessment for this project course.

    1) Project proposal report and presentation (20%) - Group Assessment.

    2) Individual contributions (20%) Individual Assessment.

    3) Research and development Report (50%) Individual Assessment.

    4) Contributions in the formal project meetings (academic and client supervisors) (10%) - Individual assessment.

    The assessment Rubrics will be delivered through online learning platform - https://myuni.adelaide.edu.au/ - and discussed in the general project meeting.

    Due to the current COVID-19 situation modified arrangements have been made to assessments to facilitate remote learning and teaching. Assessment details provided here reflect recent changes.

    "Course assessment stays the same, even though the presentation component would be conducted remotely via Zoom.

    Please refer to the published time table and rubric for more information on the assessment. "
    Assessment Related Requirements
    Hurdle Requirement: If your overall mark for the course is greater than 44 F but, your marks for the individual contributions are less than 40%, your overall mark for the course will be reduced to 44 F.
    Assessment Detail
    1) Project proposal report and presentation (20%) - Group assessment. 

    A report critically analysing the relevant literature and detailing a research design and execution plan. The research proposal presentation will also describe individual research component.  

    2) Individual contributions (20%) - Individual assessment. 

    A presentation to demonstrate an individual contribution to the carried out research and its results and a prototype implementation of a system.

    3) Research and Development Report (50%) - Individual assessment.

    A detailed report demonstrating the design, execution, and findings and associated prototype system that has been fully tested. A detailed plan for the future work in the same or similar problem domain.

    4) Contributions in the formal project meetings (academic and client supervisors) (10%) - Individual assessment.

    Active and fruitful contributions to the formal project meetings with academic supervisors and clients. 

    Note: The details of the assessment rubrics will be provided through online learning platform, (https://myuni.adelaide.edu.au/ and will be discussed in the general project meeting.

  • 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.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • 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.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
