Learning Resources
Required Resources
Course readings list
You can find the full course readings list, and access those readings here Links to an external site.. The readings are also available via the 'course readings' link in the left navigation pane.
Independent reading and research
As you progress through the course and the development of your own individual research project, it is expected that you will conduct substantial independent reading of academic and grey literature.
Your supervisor can assist you with this, and you can find extra guidance and useful resources around finding and evaluating literature for research in module 4.Recommended Resources
Non-compulsory readings
This is a project-based course so there are no prescribed compulsory readings: you'll be engaging extensively with literature related to your topic as you progress your project.
There are some useful texts and resources that you may wish to reference throughout your project, and they are linked here for your reference.

Relevant conferences can be found at the Data Science Conferences Index. ( Links to an external site.The quality of conferences can be judged using the CORE Conference Portal) Note: while A* is the best ranking, you will note that many of the conferences listed in the first link are not ranked, so there are limitations.
Key project and data references
You will be referencing the GovHack Links to an external site. and Data.gov.au Links to an external site. websites extensively throughout this course.
Wherever possible, resources that are open-access or available through the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide Library have been provided.
In some cases, additional resources have been flagged that may not be provided through the Library. These are not required textbooks.
Depending on the specific needs of your research project, and your own professional interest, you may wish to consider purchasing access to them individually for your own reference, though the course does not require this of you.
If you are struggling to find or access relevant reference materials and resources to support you with components of your research, you should consult with your Supervisor, who can help you find appropriate alternatives.
Additional recommended and supplementary readings are also provided within individual modules and sections throughout the course as relevant. -

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
midterm report: 30%
Presentation: 20%
Final report: 50%Assessment Related Requirements
You will need to submit 3 submissions for 3 marked assignmentsAssessment Detail
Research Project B follows the structure of Research Project A: instead of studying prescribed course content and receiving support from tutors, you will continue to develop your own research project with the support of a supervisor who will provide on-going guidance and feedback. While some resources have been provided on this course site to assist you as you progress through your course and approach the assessments, these are not the core learning resources for the course: the bulk of your learning will occur as you engage with the literature on your research topic and progress your research project.Submission
All submission dates are listed on myuniCourse Grading
Grades for your performance in this course will be awarded in accordance with the following scheme:
M10 (Coursework Mark Scheme) Grade Mark Description FNS Fail No Submission F 1-49 Fail P 50-64 Pass C 65-74 Credit D 75-84 Distinction HD 85-100 High Distinction CN Continuing NFE No Formal Examination RP Result Pending Further details of the grades/results can be obtained from Examinations.

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.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
