ENG 4010 - Defence Leadership

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2022

Students will understand what makes defence leadership stand apart from others and why it is a critical component of a nation's defence capability. A successful military leader demonstrates commitment to the welfare of individual soldiers while also understanding that accomplishment of the assigned mission objectives may require high degrees of personal risk not found in typical professions. This course will examine the historic qualities defining military leadership on the battlefields of old and study its relevance to the increasingly electronic modern equivalent. Important texts will be sampled and central themes examined via case study and guest lecture. Designed for those seeking a career within the defence sector, students will learn how to interact within the defence leadership environment.

  • 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.

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.
