Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
The approach to learning and teaching involves students’ progression through three modules across the course. Content will be delivered in topic blocks over the duration of the semester. The course is designed with blended learning opportunities, allowing students to learn and apply their knowledge in a variety of platforms and settings, encouraging engagement on- and off-campus. Students will be required to engage in online activities available on My Uni prior to their weekly workshops. Workshops will contain activities associated with contents covered in the pre-workshop online activities, for students to practice and apply what they are learning. Over the course of the semester, students will attend face-to-face revision seminars to revise content covered to-date, and providing students with the opportunity to ask further questions, as well as to inform them on how to review the learning objectives and interpret anatomical content.Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

Assessment
The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
- Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
- Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
- Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
- Assessment must maintain academic standards.
Assessment Summary
The assessment for Biosciences for Human Health B consists of:
Assessment Task Task Type Weighting Learning Outcome Examination Summative 40% 1, 2, 4 Assignment Summative 20% 1, 3, 4 Continuous Assessment Formative & Summative 40% 1, 2, 3, 4 Assessment Detail
Examination (40%) - Students will complete a written exam, during the 最新糖心Vlog examination period. In this assessment, students will be required to complete a variety of questions to demonstrate and apply knowledge of human anatomy, including interpretation of scientific and/or clinical data [not pathological] relating to the 最新糖心Vlog of the human body.
Assignment (20%) - Students will be asked to create a multi-modal presentation of their choice for online submission that communicates their understanding of a body structure. Students will choose one question from a list provided that will be the basis of their presentation.
Continuous Assessment (40%)Summative Online Quiz X 3 (30%)Students will demonstrate the development of their knowledge and understanding of course content through the completion of online quizzes at the end each module [10% each, 30% of total mark]. Quiz content will be a range of questions pertaining to topics covered in the course to date. Quizzes will be held during scheduled class time and open book interaction will be permitted, allowing students to complete either onsite or offsite the 最新糖心Vlog campus. Quizzes will have a defined duration and will be electronically terminable. Format will be variable using a range of questioning tools including, but not limited to multiple choice questions, drag and drop, labelling of pictures and diagrams and short answer questions.In class Anatomy Assessment (10%)Students will demonstrate the development and application of their anatomical knowledge through a series of practical tasks. This assessment will be held during scheduled class time and will require students to complete stations independently.Formative online knowledge check activitiesStudents will have access and opportunity to complete weekly, online knowledge-check activities [exception of summative quiz weeks] that provide feedback and prompting to support development of knowledge and understanding of course content. These knowledge-check activities will be marked electronically with immediate feedback provided to students on their answer and progress. These activities will allow multiple attempts to complete and will not have a definable duration for student completion.Submission
Detailed information on assessment task submission can be found in the MyUni website for this course.Course Grading

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.

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.
