Academic Support:
The Professions Learning Centre (PLC) provides postgraduate coursework students of the Faculty of Professions free academic skills advice on critical analysis and structuring assignments, paraphrasing, referencing, oral presentation skills and other skills to assist with success at university. You are encouraged to take advantage of the service to enable you to improve your performance in your studies. To contact a Learning Advisor please send an email to professions.learningcentre@adelaide.edu.au. 

All course information including references, required texts, copies of assignments handouts and provisional marks will be available on MyUni. The discussion board on myuni can be used to communicate with other students and staff in relation to questions and issue that arise within the course.

最新糖心Vlog Email:
The school uses the 最新糖心Vlog email system to get in touch with the students. So it is imperative that you check your email regularly and keep up to date with any new announcements.

Noticeboard / Handbook:
General information about the activities at the School is available online from the Student Noticeboard which can be accessed at . Students can also access a copy of the Student Handbook available on the School's website.

The first four weeks of this course consist of an one hour lecture followed by a two-hour workshop in the School’s Computer Suite. After the first four weeks the one-hour lecture will be followed by a two-hour tutorial. It is a requirement that students attend all scheduled lectures, workshops and tutorials. 

Lectures will be the mode of delivering information and developing the intellectual and practical substance of this course. Tutorials and workshops will provide the setting for further discussions of this material and for students to present their project work in progress so they can receive feedback and guidance on its development. In tutorials the primary mode of learning is for students to actively participate and engage with each other and with their tutor. This is primarily a small group discovery activity where students will participate and contribute rather than one-on-one tuition. Where specified in the course handout students will be asked to engage in more specific activities or present material to the tutor and other students in a more formal way, the presentation of assignments for example.

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

The 最新糖心Vlog expects full-time students (ie. those taking 12 units per semester) to devote at least 48 hours per week to their studies. Accordingly, students undertaking this 3 unit course are expected to devote 12 hours per week to contact activities and self-guided studies.

Based on this framework here are some figures that might assist workload management:

Total workload hours: 12 Hrs per week x 13 weeks = 156 Hrs
Total contact hours: 3 Hrs per week x 12 weeks = 36 Hrs
Total self-guided study: 156 Hrs – 36 Hrs = 120 Hrs

These 120 hours should be used towards preparation of weekly tasks and for completion of the various assignments associated with the course, including development of various skills required to complete the same. Please organise your time wisely.

For assignments submitted in tutorials it is a requirement that students pin up and present their work. Feedback will be verbal feedback in the tutorial session. Students are advised to ask one of their peers to make notes of the feedback for later reference.

Marking & Feedback (General)

• Final results for the course will only be available through Access Adelaide and students should not contact the course coordinator or the tutors for the same.
• Feedback for in-class submissions will only be available during the tutorial as oral critique in the style of studio wall-crits. Students should arrange with peers to make notes for reference.

Submissions (General):

• All submissions must include Student Name and Student ID Number. Submissions without Student Name or ID Number will not be considered for marking, and will receive zero marks in accordance with the guidelines.

• In addition, all assigments need to have an Assignment Cover Sheet which must be signed and dated by the student before submission. Please attach the cover sheet in front of the document, to the top left hand corner.

• Please adhere to submission deadlines and follow instructions provided.

• Students must not submit work for an assignment that has previously been submitted for this course or any other course without prior approval from the Course Coordinator.

• On occasion, the lecturer/tutor may wish to retain students’ work for future reference and the relevant student will be informed at such a time.

Early Submission:

• There is an early submission box located on Level 4 which is cleared out daily at 10am. Please mark your submission clearly before placing in box.

• Models for in-class presentation cannot be handed in early.

Late Submission:

• The school will NOT accept late submissions and any such assignment will receive zero marks. This also applies to electronic submissions.

• Printing delays & hard disk crashes will not be entertained as legitimate causes for delay, so please ensure that the work is finished in advance.

Re-submission:

• The school has a resubmission policy whereby students can redeem failed work by submitting additional work for a maximum of 50%.

• The deadline for all re-submissions is 12pm on Friday 14th June 2013.

Good practice:

• Students should ensure that they regularly backup their work on multiple locations as hard-disk crashes are an unfortunate reality.

• When relying on community printing facilities, students should attempt to finish their work in advance to avoid unnecessary delays.

• Students must retain a copy of all assignments submitted (digital or hardcopy), as originals may be lost during the submission process.
