is the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide's online learning environment. It is used to support traditional face-to-face lectures, tutorials and workshops at the 最新糖心Vlog. MyUni provides access to various features including announcements, course materials, discussion boards and assessments for each online course of study.

This course is intended to run in a standard semester format via on-campus face to face lectures and tutorials. This course is more practical in nature weaving project management and industry practices into various project types. The aim is for students to gather specific industry knowledge alongside of recognised project management knowledge. The learning and teaching materials will be made available to students on the online MyUni platform so that students can refer to lecture presentations and other learning materials.

Students are expected to attend lectures and tutorials as scheduled. Furthermore, students should prepare for lectures and revise post lecture to improve understanding of each week’s course module. Students will be directed to work on three different assessment pieces and submit for grading. As a general guide, a 3 unit course requires

Total workload hours: 12 Hrs per week x 13 weeks = 156 Hrs
Total contact hours: 3 Hrs per week x 12 weeks = 36 Hrs
Total self-guided study: 156 Hrs – 36 Hrs = 120 Hrs

The course is intended to present more advanced project management concepts to broaden student knowledge and skills. This will be become apparent during lectures, tutorials and assessments. Study will also need to be undertaken outside of lectures and tutorials to enhance student learning.

The weekly lecture schedule is structured as follows

2	Industry and Projects
3	Project Planning Perspectives
4	Project Constraints and Deliverables
5	Commercial Aspects on Projects
6	Industrial Relations and Projects
7	Occupational Health and Safety Requirements

Course results may be subject to moderation by the Assessment Review Committee.

Industry Essay: this assessment will require each student to investigate various industries and fields to gain an understanding on how different sectors manage their projects. The essay topic will generally direct students to research various work areas and highlight particular project aspects supported by recognised project management knowledge. The learning outcomes assessment will illustrate how well each student has understood project practices in various industries and fields.

Project Practices Report: this assignment will be an individual report assessment. It will focus on industrial relations and occupational health and safety issues as applied to projects. Students will be required to look at industry projects and ascertain good management and commercial practice when planning and delivering projects in this regard. This assessment will highlight learning outcomes with students being able to display their understanding in respect to industrial relations, safety and commerce in both general and specific project terms

Group Report and Presentation: this major report and presentation will be conducted by students in small groups. Students can study a specific project or type of project or do a comparison of two or three projects with differing industrial bases. The main thrust will be to detail the successful execution of nominated project(s) with some emphasis on the various stakeholders involved. The learning outcomes of this group based assessment will be shown via students displaying their understanding of the various course topics and applying these to their industry based projects.

Attendance and Participation: this assessment requires students to attend tutorials and participate in individual exercises, group work and the industry presentations. This assessment will cover a broad range of topics enhancing overall student learning outcomes.
