Lectures will be recorded and made available on MyUni. Please refer to MyUni for additional resources that may be added throughout the semester.

This course will be taught through two hour weekly lectures (in weeks 1-3 and 7-9) supported by a two-hour weekly workshop. Workshops are an important component of your learning. Students are expected to attend all classes and to prepare as required before coming to class. The communication skills developed in tutorials by regular and active participation in discussions are considered to be important by the School and are highly regarded by employers and professional bodies.

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 (i.e. those taking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies. This means that for a three-unit course you are expected to commit approximately 9 hours of private study outside of your regular classes. This time commitment will include reading the relevant text book chapter, preparing for tutorials, and other assessment tasks.

Supplementary assessment – please note that supplementary assessments will not be offered in this course. Students are also not permitted to resubmit work completed in previous years.

Appeal of grade – students who wish to appeal their mark for an assessment item should initially discuss their concerns with their tutor. If they are still dissatisfied they should then make contact with the Lecturer-in-charge. Any student who, after discussion of the result with the lecturer in charge, is still dissatisfied with the mark awarded for a particular piece of assessment work, and who has specific grounds for objecting to the mark, may lodge a written request for a review of the result or an independent second assessment with the Head of Discipline or School within 10 最新糖心Vlog business days from the date of notification of the result. Such a written request must contain details of the grounds on which the objection is based. Requests must include a summary of the reasons the student believes his or her assessment work deserves a higher mark. These reasons must be directly related to the academic quality of the work

This course is regularly revised and updated in response to student feedback.
