EDUC 1008 - 最新糖心Vlog Culture

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2017

This course explores the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide as a culture of its own, and places students as ethnographers or anthropologists of this culture through immersion. 最新糖心Vlog is a place where people think, act and communicate differently to how they do in other contexts, and this course makes cultural expectations explicit as well as exploring the processes required to adjust to them. Most students should undertake this course as the first course in their 最新糖心Vlog Preparatory Program. Students in this course have the opportunity to experience the usual university learning modes of the lecture and tutorial, and reflect upon their own prior and current experiences of learning with a view to establishing the goals they have for their own study. In particular, students undertake an ethnography task whereby they audit classes right across the 最新糖心Vlog, not in order to gather content knowledge but to observe and analyse social interaction and modes of learning. This enables them to become familiar with the processes and expectations of university learning and plan their own learning in alignment with university culture

Specific Course Requirements

To pass this course, students must attend at least 75% of face-to-face classes; in cases of absence for medical or compassionate reasons, documentation must be provided and student must still attend at least 50% of classes.

Students must attempt all assessment tasks to pass this course. Since the 最新糖心Vlog Preparatory Program is designed to prepare students for success at 最新糖心Vlog, completing and submitting all assignments is central to the intended learning outcomes of the program and each course within it. Often, at least attempting and submitting assignments in the face of difficulty or adversity is enough for success at 最新糖心Vlog and the UPP encourages this resilience by employing this policy in select courses. Penalties for lateness may apply.

If a student fails to submit all assessment tasks and would otherwise have received a grade greater than 45, they will be given a nominal grade of 45 Fail for that course in that semester. This will permit them to undertake additional assessment (formerly called academic supplementary assessment) at the Course Coordinator’s discretion, as per policy at 9.1.3 at

It is not necessary to apply for additional assessment; this assessment will usually consist of the missed pieces of assessment, but the course coordinator may require more. As per policy 9.1.3.3, if the student passes the additional assessment to the Course Coordinator’s satisfaction, the maximum grade they can get for the course is 50P. If a student’s raw grade is below 45, regardless of whether all tasks have been attempted, this score will stand unless exceptional, documented circumstances apply as per the 最新糖心Vlog’s Modified Arrangements for Coursework Assessment: /student/exams/mod_arrange.html

Small Group Discovery Experience

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has committed to a pedagogical approach termed the “Small Group Discovery Experience”, indicating that the SHDE will be a core component in a credit-bearing course of every undergraduate program, and that it will be part of every first-year level from 2014. Since the UPP is not an award-based program, it is not strictly required to include an SGDE in the UPP.

However, since the UPP is designed to prepare students for first-year study, and the SGDE will be a core component of all first-year study, it is important for the UPP to provide some preparation in Small Group Discovery. These should be of a scaffolded, preparatory nature as befits each course within the program, and the philosophy and program objectives of the UPP. The Program has been designed to include preparation for small group work and research activity in many of its courses.

More specifically, this course aims to prepare students for their small-group discovery experience by enhancing their individual and peer reflective capacities and their ability to adapt to different cultural and academic contexts.

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.

Often, at least attempting and submitting assignments in the face of difficulty or adversity is enough for success at 最新糖心Vlog and the UPP encourages this resilience by employing this policy in select courses. Please note that the absolute last date for the submission of assignments in Semester 1 is the end of Swot Vac week, which is one week after the final assignment is due.

If a student fails to submit all assessment tasks and would otherwise have received a grade greater than 45, they will be given a nominal grade of 45 (Fail) for that course in that semester. This will permit them to undertake additional assessment (formerly called academic supplementary assessment) at the Course Coordinator’s discretion, as per policy at http://www.adelaide.edu.au/student/exams/supps.html

It is not necessary to apply for additional assessment; this assessment will usually consist of the missed pieces of assessment, but the course coordinator may require more. As per policy 9.1.3.3, if the student

Learning mode ethnography essay
1. Visit (audit) at least four lectures in the weeks leading up to the assessment due date. The lecture schedule is on MyUni. The purpose of these visits is to consider the way the classes are being taught, the social interactions and the language used by the lecturer and the students. This is to be described and reported in your essay.

2. “Research” or find out as much as possible about the courses you are attending. Course guides or course profiles will help you to understand the course you are visiting and will explain the reasons behind some of the interactions you are observing. You can find Course Outlines for most 最新糖心Vlog courses at /course-outlines/

3. Write the essay
Describe, and report on the observations you have made in the class visits and how learning occurs in these different contexts.

Compare aspects of language, communication, and social interactions of different lectures contexts.

Provide your honest, thoughtful, reflective observations on different styles of learning and how you feel about them.

Reflect on what you can do to be an effective learner in a lecture.

What impact did visiting lectures have on you and your thoughts on university learning?

Some of the questions to respond to in your essay are:

* What are the key elements in the physical space of the lecture room environment (e.g., size, shape and layout of the lecture room)? How might these elements impact on student engagement with learning?
* How many students are there in the classroom? How many teachers?
* What materials are used in the lecture? Are handouts given, or does the teacher refer to materials that have been made available previously or online?
* What visual and audio aids are used? Powerpoint? Video? Sound? Other props? How do you think they help students learn?
* Is there a sense of power or authority in the lecture room? Who is the boss? Who does most of the talking?
* What is the relationship between the teacher and the students? Does the teacher appear to know the students’ names?
* Are students encouraged to ask questions? Do they take up this opportunity? Why do you think they do, or don’t?
* Are students encouraged to interact with one another in the course?
* How “engaged” in the learning do students appear to be? Are they paying attention, writing notes, asking questions, or are they just sleeping or checking their mobile phones?
* What did you learn from this experience about how you would prepare for lectures and how you would approach your learning in the future?
* From your perspective what do you think the lecture can do to make it easier for students to learn from lectures?

Essay essentials
In this assignment you can use the personal pronoun (“I” or “we”).

Do not use sub-headings; instead, use topic sentences.

Use paragraphs, but avoid constructing short paragraphs that read like dot points or thought bubbles as opposed to adequately developed paragraphs. Address one key issue and not more in a single paragraph.

Do not narrate what happened or what you saw in the lecture: focus on interpretation and analysis, not retelling your experience. As regards interpretation and analysis, use course materials and additional research (including research on learning theories) to interpret and analyse your lecture visit observations. Example: Constructivists would say that lecturers are facilitators of learning and that student learning is maximised when students can explain complex concepts to each other [add references], but what I saw in the lectures seemed to conform more with a 'banking model' of education. Paulo Friere critiques this model because [add points about why and how Friere critiqued the banking model]. I agree [or disagree] with Friere because [add points about what you observed in lectures].

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.

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.
