The course has been structured to also cater for non-Property students who are wanting to enrol in an elective course that can provide them with the basic knowledge that is required when buying property, whether it is your first home, dream home or an investment property.

  • Assessment

    The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

    1. Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
    2. Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
    3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
    4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.

    Assessment Summary
    Assessment 1 - Video Suburb Report - 15%

    Assessment 2 - Oral Test - 15%

    Assessment 3 - Valuation Report - 40%

    Assessment 4 - Quiz on Commercial Property and Time Value of Money (TVM) - 20%

    Attendance and Participation - 10%

    Assessment Detail
    Assessment 1 - Video Suburb Report
    The purpose of this assessment is to get you out and about in your suburb. Conducting research and analysis behind a desk and on a computer is great but there is nothing like gaining local property knowledge of an area by walking, riding or driving around the locality.

    Assessment 2 - Oral Test
    Each student will undertake an oral test, based on the first few weeks of this course.

    The oral test will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes. There will be a series of questions. Not all students will be answering the same questions.

    Your answers should not only address "What" but also "Why". For some questions, it will be relevant to cite examples to help justify your answer.

    Assessment 3 - Valuation Report
    Major assignment

    Attendance and Participation
    You are expected to attend all lectures and workshops.

  • 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.

    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.
