Timetable details are located on MyUni.

On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

1.	Explain major evaluation approaches and their limitations for a range of public health interventions
2.	Identify, value and analyse health care resources and health outcomes to include in economic evaluation
3.	Demonstrate an understanding of the role of economic evaluations in the decision-making process
4.	Understand how to design and/or critique a public health evaluation
5.	Demonstrate an ability to work in teams and communicate effectively with others regarding the evaluation process and findings

There is no set textbook for this course. All resources, including links to journal articles and reading lists, will be disseminated via MyUni.

 

The primary means of communication outside of formal contact hours will be via MyUni. Announcements and discussion boards will be the main method of communicating with the student cohort.

All lectures for this course will be online. Course material will be supported by online resources via MyUni, which will be sequentially released in line with the teaching and learning activities in each week.

Zoom sessions will be used regularly for online students to allow discussion of course materials and provide an opportunity for students to ask questions.

This course is presented in DUAL mode - i.e. it is available as both a face-to-face or online course and students enrol in one or the other.

Note that face to face sessions will only be available if they are within COVID safe guidelines at the time.

Lectures for both modes are online.

Practical workshop sessions will provide an opportunity to explore issues raised during seminars in greater depth, and for students to learn from each other. These are available face-to-face over 2 hours/weeks on a specific day; or, for online students, they will be available online via MyUni and will consist of worksheets to be uploaded via MyUni, Discussion Board activities, quizzes and regular Zoom sessions.

The course will also include a number of expert evaluation guest speakers who will discuss public health evaluation in practice. Students are asked to submit questions beforehand and the guest speakers will answer them.

The session with experts will be face-to-face and recorded so it will be available to all students.

For face to face students, the course involves 2 hours of contact time each week during semester, plus additional work outside of class time for reading, class preparation, and assessment tasks.

For online students, the same amount of time is expected to be allocated towards completing coursework although this may be be spread over a longer period than 3 hours.

However, online students are expected to complete all the work allocated each week, before the next week's work is available

TOPICS TO BE COVERED

Principles of evaluation (definition, value, key approaches, outcome vs process, vs. impact measures)

Economic evaluation

N/A

ASSESSMENT TASK	TASK TYPE	WEIGHTING	COURSE LEARNING OUTCOME(S)
Online quizzes	Summative	20%
Evaluation assignment	Summative	35%
Economics assessment	Summative	35%
Participation	Summative	10%

The course assessments are structured so that students can review their learnings throughout the course and then apply these learnings to final assessment which aims to enable them to integrate all the different aspects of the course.

Quizzes (20%)
Two quizzes using short answer or multiple choice will assess student understanding of course content from seminars, workshops and readings.

Evaluation Assignment (1000 words) (35%)
Students will design a logic model.

Economics Assessment (35%)


Participation (10%)
Each student will receive a mark for their participation and engagement in classes throughout the semester. A key component of this grade will involve working in small groups to prepare and ask a question of the guest expert panel discussion.

Extensions
All extensions for assignments must be requested, at the latest, by the last working day before the due date of submission. 
Extensions will generally be granted only on medical or genuine compassionate grounds. Supporting documentation must be provided at the time a student requests an extension. Without documentation, extensions will not be granted. Late requests for extension will neither be accepted nor acknowledged.

Only the Course Co-ordinator(s) may grant extensions.

Supporting documentation will be required when requesting an extension. Examples of documents that are acceptable include: a medical certificate that specifies dates of incapacity, a police report (in the case of lost computers, car & household theft etc.), a letter from a Student Counsellor, Education and Welfare Officer (EWO) or Disability Liaison Officer that provides an assessment of compassionate circumstances, or a letter from an independent external counsellor or appropriate professional able to verify the student’s situation. The length of any extension granted will take into account the period and severity of any incapacity or impact on the student. Extensions of more than 10 days will not be granted except in exceptional circumstances.

Late submission
Marks will be deducted when assignments for which no extension has been granted are handed in late.

All assignments, including those handed in late, will be assessed on their merits. In the case of late assignments where no
extension has been granted, 5 percentage points of the total marks possible per day will be deducted. If an assignment that
is 2 days late is awarded 65% on its merits, the mark will then be reduced by 10% (5% per day for 2 days) to 55%. If that same assignment is 4 days late, the mark will be reduced by 20% (5% per day for 4 days) to 45%, and so on.

The School of Public Health reserves the right to refuse to accept an assignment that is more than 7 days late.

Assignments submitted after the due date may not be graded in time to be returned on the listed return dates.

Students submitting examinable written work who request (and receive) an extension that takes them beyond the examination period are advised that there is no guarantee that their grades will be processed in time to meet usual 最新糖心Vlog deadlines.

Resubmission
If a student is dissatisfied with an assessment grade they should follow the Student Grievance Resolution Process /student/grievance/process. Students who are not satisfied with a particular assessment result should raise their concerns with Course Co-ordinator(s) in the first instance. This must be done within 10 business days of the date of notification of the result.  Resubmission of any assignment is subject to the agreement of the Course Co-ordinator(s) and will only be permitted for the most compelling of reasons.

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.

The School of Public Health greatly values the feedback we receive from our students as it helps us to continuously improve our courses so we encourage all of our students to complete SELTs regulary for every course.
