The MyUni Discussion Board will be utilized as a medium for online discussion to provide students the opportunity to share ideas and concerns that are related to teaching Information Technology in schools.

Seminars/workshops will be held weekly commencing the week beginning 25 July 2016. The course will be delivered as 8×2 hour seminars/workshops in the second semester.

Seminars/workshops are an important component of your learning in this course. The communication skills developed in seminars by regularly and actively participating in discussions are considered to be most important by the School and are highly regarded by employers and professional bodies.

I will be available for consultation through negotiation.  Pease contact me at 0402 455 582

Please regularly check your email or the course’s MyUni announcements page for course-related announcements.

The 最新糖心Vlog expects full-time students (i.e. those taking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies. A subject worth 2 points, therefore, should take 8 hours (incl 2 hours of formal classes) during the teaching weeks of the course. Students in this course are expected to attend all lectures/seminars throughout the semester. There are no tutorial sessions for this course Please refer to Access Adelaide for your timetable and enrolment details. http://www.adelaide.edu.au/access/

Your unique and individual assessment task will cover at least one folio, skills and project that demonstrate the assessment design criteria for the SACE Board. Each task is designed to create opportunities for the student to provide evidence of his or her learning at the highest possible level of achievement against the Performance Standards (PS) for external moderation.

The assessment portfolio will demonstrate your awareness of the professional standards and apply industry standard practice. For each assessment task, include the following:

• A brief description of what the assessment task is as an overview including:

     • Assessment type and conditions

     • The objective(s) of the assessment task from the Subject Outline (SO) (page and key questions and concepts)

• Assessment task and tools to gather student performance.

• Assessment tool items mapped  using applicable SACE Subject Outline and skills check list.

• Appropriate Performance Standards (PS) sheets for moderation and student feedback.

Assignments to be submitted online via MyUni and Turnitin.

The quality of English expression is considered to be integral parts of the assessment process. Marks may be deducted for poorly organised and poorly presented work.

Assessment marks will be displayed on the course website as they are available. Students are encouraged to check their marks and notify the lecturer-in-charge of any discrepancies.


Extensions for Written Assessment

Extensions are granted at the discretion of Course Coordinators or Assessment Officer in compliance with the Modified Arrangements for Coursework Assessment Policy. Extensions beyond the due date are usually only granted in the case of significant medical, compassionate or extenuating circumstances which affect a student’s capacity to demonstrate their demonstrate their true level of competence in an assessment task.

Students must apply for an extension by completing the online Application for Extension form. The application must give details of the extent and length of the student’s medical, compassionate or extenuating circumstances and the length of extension that is requested. The Course Coordinator or Assessment Officer will email the student regarding the outcome of their request as soon as possible after it is received. If an extension is granted it is provisional until formal evidence of the medical, compassionate or extenuating circumstances referred to in the online Application for Extension form is received. Where the application for extension is based on medical circumstances students must submit Attachment A available at the Modified Arrangements for Coursework Assessments website (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/3303/) . Students must have an 最新糖心Vlogn registered medical practitioner complete Attachment A. The practitioner must clearly indicate the dates in which the student is deemed to be unfit to complete an examination and display their medical provider number or practitioner's official stamp on the Form. Students must attach this evidence as well as the email granting the extension to their written assessment when it is submitted. The evidence submitted must be consistent with details provided in the application requesting the extension. If the details of the request for an extension and the medical or other evidence verifying the reason for the extension are not consistent in all respects the extension may be nullified, and the Course Coordinator of Assessment Officer may in their discretion decide not to accept the assignment, or impose a penalty for late submission.

Students can apply for an extension at any time before the due date for an assignment. However, students are strongly advised to make extension applications as soon as their need becomes apparent. Delay in making an application obviously involves the risk that there will be insufficient time to complete the assessment (with consequential loss of marks) if the application for extension is refused.

If an application is made within five days of the due date, or after the due date has expired, it will not be granted unless the Course Coordinator or Assessment Officer is satisfied:

- that the circumstances warrant an extension; and
- the application was made as soon as was practicable, and with no unreasonable delay.

The duration of an extension is for the Course Coordinator or Assessment Officer to determine. However, unless there are exceptional circumstances an extension should not be granted for more than 10 business days or beyond the last day on which teaching may occur in the relevant teaching period, whichever is earlier.

If a request for an extension is rejected, the student can appeal via the Student Grievance Resolution Process within seven days of notification of rejection by the Course Coordinator or Assessment Officer.

Penalties for Late Submission

An assessment that is submitted after the due date, and without an extension, will incur a 5% deduction from the total mark for every 24 hours or part thereof that it is late, including each day on a weekend. For example, an essay that is submitted after the due date and time but within the first 24 hour period, and that has been graded at 63%, will have 5% deducted, for a final grade of 58%. An essay that is more than 24 hours late will lose 10%, etc. Hard copy submissions made after 5.00pm on a Friday will be assumed to have been submitted on the next business day and will be penalised 5% per day for every day including weekend days and public holidays. This penalty may be increased where the assignment is to be completed in a period of less than a week.
