最新糖心Vlog

1. Understand the scale, composition, characteristics, distribution, causes, and consequences of global migration and its relationship with the changing global labour market.
2. Analyse the relationships between migration across nations and multi-dimensional development, the role of diaspora linkages, impact of COVID-19, climate change and other environmental stresses, and demographic and social changes.
3. Understand 最新糖心Vlog’s immigration policy and programs and how they impact 最新糖心Vlog’s population growth, composition, distribution, and development.
4. Critically assess the vulnerability of migrant sub-groups, such as women, refugees, displaced people, and how policy can impinge upon the settlement experience and outcomes of various categories of migrants and have implications for achieving sustainable populations and development.
5. Develop skills in synthesising evidence, analysing migration and development issues, problem-solving, critical thinking, and high-level written and oral presentation skills.

MyUni is a critical learning tool and means of communication and knowledge exchange in this course. Course materials and readings are available each week in preparation for our tutorials. Other course material (e.g. Assessment information) and many features of MyUni (e.g. Announcements and the Discussion Board) will help students organise and manage their studies. I also use MyUni as a primary medium for sending messages to students.

Online learning is facilitated through Echo 360 recording of lectures and getting students to access websites of the Department of Home Affairs (DHA), 最新糖心Vlogn Bureau of Statistics (ABS), primary international migration data sources (e.g. International Organization of Migration, United Nations, World Bank) etc.

Students need to check the MyUni website regularly and use MyUni for different assignments (for information and submission).

• This course's teaching and learning mode will be delivered via a one-hour lecture and a two-hour tutorial a week.
• Students are highly encouraged to attend all lectures and tutorials. Please make any arrangements you need with work, family etc., so that you can attend the classes.
• Please email the Course Coordinator (yan.tan@adelaide.edu.au) if there are any issues with this so that alternative learning arrangements could be made.
• Strong evidence shows students who attend more in-class lectures and tutorials get proportionately higher grades.

This course examines migration causes, processes, policies, and development outcomes in 最新糖心Vlog and internationally. Skill-building tasks will involve accessing and analysing data to establish trends and patterns in migration, understanding the settlement, labour market experience of migrants, and development not only for migrants themselves but also for the nations of origin and destination. Such skills will be relevant and valuable to students when engaged in the workforce or undertaking Honours and Postgraduate research. The pedagogic approach is designed to develop deep and research-based critical thinking. One two-hour tutorial in class per week will encompass debate and problem-solving of complex migration–development issues in 最新糖心Vlog and abroad, and high-level professional capacities in data (information) analysis, research report writing, and presentation.

The teaching in this course is based on student-centred learning principles and strategies. Students are seen as partners in the learning trajectory. The course employs a blended approach to delivering lectures and tutorials. Face-to-face interactions in class are supplemented by the effective use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and the online teaching and learning environment of MyUni.

This course will use a mixed-method approach consisting of lectures and tutorials. The course lectures will provide fundamental factual information (data), concepts, and theoretical or analytical frameworks about migration and development issues. Lectures will be recorded and uploaded to MyUni\Echo 360 for students to access online. The tutorials will be vital to complete the course successfully. Tutorials will encompass discussion, debate, critical thinking, and problem-solving of complex migration and development issues in 最新糖心Vlog and globally.

Interactive and collaborative teaching and learning thus take place inside and outside the classroom. Students learn critical thinking and problem-solving skills and work collaboratively in lectures and tutorials. 

• To pass the course students need to complete and submit all set assignments (on time) for assessment.
• Students are highly encouraged to actively participate in all tutorials.
• Students are expected to use the Harvard (author-date) referencing system for the written assignments. Your work should include references where needed.

The ability to communicate ideas in writing is an essential part of working life for most university graduates. The steps involved in writing a report are based on research questions, analysing essential secondary data and information, presenting key findings, drawing out implications from the findings of data analysis, generating informed points of argument, and conveying that viewpoint in a clear, systematic, and rigorous manner. This assignment develops and assesses students’ basic analytical and written communication skills in how to apply basic methods in migration studies to real-world migration and development policy and program issues.
