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.
Time and space are often issues when trying to fit clinical placement and theoretical learning in. In 2020, online lectures will be prerecorded so that students can view at their convenience. Tutorials to reinforce the lecture content will be utilised.
Skills sessions worked best when there was interation and "hands on" activity. This will continue with suggested refinements in 2020.
Students liked the smaller group work in the skills sessions, and also enjoyed having the opportunity to feedback in a timely fashion as to positive and negative aspects of the course.
Students wanted more definitive guidance on the preoperative assessment portfolio as well. This assignment has been completely redesigned in order to address the format concerns that students raised. It will also be due earlier in the semester to create a 'break space' between this piece and the exam.
Positive feedback included the use of the Intellilearn software for the drug calculation test, and this process has been refined.
PBL was a popular aspect of this course, and will be restructured for flow reasons in 2020. -

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.
