Assessment Summary
This course uses criterion-based assessment. This means that the standard of work determines student grades in terms of meeting a number of criteria that represent the requirements for a particular course. In other words, work is judged according to a pre-determined standard of task completion rather than by comparing it to the work of other students undertaking the same course.

All assignments must be word-processed or typed.
Illegibly written or badly presented assignments will be sent back for re-transcription.  Legible typescript and the quality of English expression are considered to be integral parts of the assessment process.
Assignments must have all pages numbered and your name on the header.
Clearly indicate on the front page of the assignment: your name, student ID, word length, course and name of your lecturer.
Include a detailed reference list. Please note: Harvard, APA, Vancouver or Footnote style can be used for referencing. Ensure you are consistent with your chosen referencing style throughout your paper. 
Content and quality of thought matter more than quantity but you should keep within 10% of the prescribed limit.
Online submission will be via Turnitin on Canvas.
Extensions can only be sought under the provisions of the Modified Arrangements for Coursework Assessment Policy or the Reasonable Adjustments for Teaching and Assessment for Students with a Disability Policy.
For work that is late without formal extension, 2 percentage points will be deducted from the mark for every day (or part thereof) the work is late to a maximum of 7 days (including weekends and public holidays).  For example, an assignment that is 3 days late: raw score of 80% - 6 marks lateness deduction = 74% final mark. For work with a formal extension, these penalties will apply from the extended due date.
There will be a cut-off date for each assignment 7 days (including weekends and public holidays) after the original due date unless otherwise stipulated on MyUni. Work will not be accepted after the cut-off date, and a mark of zero will automatically be awarded for the assignment.
Applications for variations to the cut-off date can only be made by the Course Coordinator on pedagogical grounds and must approved by the relevant School Learning and Teaching Committee. If you are experiencing any difficulties understanding an assignment you are encouraged to make an appointment with your lecturer for early clarification.We understand that illness and family responsibilities usually affect everyone at some point.  If you discuss the difficulty with us promptly, we may be able to negotiate a solution.
Students are encouraged to check their marks and notify the lecturer-in-charge of any discrepancies.
Students must not submit work for an assignment that has previously been submitted and assessed for this course or any other course.
