Teaching & Learning Modes

In this course, we seek to create an interesting, challenging, relevant, and engaging education experience. To help achieve this objective we have a number of teaching aims:

• Create a climate of engagement, dialogue and ongoing feedback between students and lecturers regarding the content, teaching strategies, learning experiences and outcomes
• Cater for a variety of learning preferences and abilities by providing a range of learning activities and teaching methods
• Develop independent learning skills and create an environment that both provides structure and guidance as well as encouraging students to extend their learning 
  
  
  Teaching strategies
  
  This course is a combination of formal lectures, tutorials (problem solving classes) and brief presentations by students. The lectures are used to explain concepts and to give real life examples of situations in which these concepts are used. The tutorials are for problem-solving and discussion of issues raised in the lectures. All tutorial questions are from end of chapter exercises in Butler. There is an expectation that students will engage in additional readings, as well as the required text. In all classes, students are encouraged to ask questions if there is material that they do not understand. The brief presentation involves detailing the weekly behaviour of the 最新糖心Vlogn dollar.
  
   
  TUTORIALS
  
  Tutorial questions will be discussed every week. Tutorials are an important component of your learning in this course. The communication skills developed in tutorials 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.

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. This means that you are expected to commit approximately 9 hours for a three-unit course or 13 hours for a four-unit course, of private study outside of your regular classes.

Students in this course are expected to attend all lectures throughout the semester.
