Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
Lectures:
There are generally four lectures per day over five weeks of the course. The lectures are of one hour duration, and are presented by a variety of grape and wine industry professionals. Lecture handouts are provided and copies may be posted on MyUni in advance at the discretion of the guest lecturer. Lectures are not recorded.
Workshops:
Two workshops will be held, conducted by Kerry Clark, a Wine Industry Consultant. The first workshop covers Leadership, the second Conflict Management. A further workshop, which will included a tutored tasting of wines, is entitled 'The Changing Face of World Wine', presented by Mr Robin Day, winemaker and former Chairman of the AWRI.
Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
The information provided below is provided as a guide to assist studnets in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
A studnet enrolled in a 3-unit course, such as this, should expect to spend on average 12 hours per week on the studies required. This includes both the formal contact time required (lectures etc) and non-contact time (assignments etc).
Note that GIPPC runs for only six weeks of the semester, and that therefore there is an expectation that non-contact time engagement with the course be somewhat greater than is usally the case. This is reflected in the nature of the assessment items.Learning Activities Summary

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
Assessment task Task type Due Weighting Learning Outcome Literature review Summative/Formative End of week 9 30% 1, 2, 3, 4 Seminar presentation Summative/Formative Week 12 30% 2, 3, 4 Final report Summative/Formative Week 13 40% 2, 3, 4 Assessment Related Requirements
Attendance at all workshops and student presentations is compulsory.
To pass the course, students must gain an overall scaled mark of at least 50%.
There are no hurdle requirements associated with this course.Assessment Detail
1. Literature Review
Each student will be required to submit a detailed 1,500 word analysis of a topic related to research and development in the international wine industry. The aim of this analysis is to evaluate published literature to determine what is known and to identify gaps or problems in the knowledge, and generate appropriate conclusions.
2. Seminar Presentation
Students working in pairs will be required to chose a topic for the seminar from a list provided by the Course Coordinator. The time allowed for seminar presentation is 25 minutes, followed by a 5 minute discussion and question time. A suggested structure for the seminar is as follows: introduction; development of topic; conclusion/summary; recommendations. For each topic, several references will be available to aid your research upon request. These references can be sourced from the Librarian, Anne Lord of the John Fornachon Memorial Library after the first lecture.
3. Final Report
Each student will be required to submit a 6,000 word (approximately 15 pages) paper-based written presentation, which is based on, and develops, the main points of their seminar presentation. The preferred style of the summary is from the AWRI's 'Style guide for presenting written work' which will be made available in MyUni. An example of a suggested structure for the written presentation is as follows: background; objective(s); key issues; discussion of key issues; conclusions/summary; key recommendations; references.Submission
Late submission of assessments
If an extension is not applied for, or not granted then a penalty for late submission will apply. A penalty of 10% of the value of the assignment for each calendar day that is late (i.e. weekends count as 2 days), up to a maximum of 50% of the available marks will be applied. This means that an assignment that is 5 days or more late without an approved extension can only receive a maximum of 50% of the mark.Course Grading
Grades for your performance in this course will be awarded in accordance with the following scheme:
M10 (Coursework Mark Scheme) Grade Mark Description FNS Fail No Submission F 1-49 Fail P 50-64 Pass C 65-74 Credit D 75-84 Distinction HD 85-100 High Distinction CN Continuing NFE No Formal Examination RP Result Pending Further details of the grades/results can be obtained from Examinations.
Grade Descriptors are available which provide a general guide to the standard of work that is expected at each grade level. More information at Assessment for Coursework Programs.
Final results for this course will be made available through .

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.
