  • Learning & Teaching Activities
    Learning & Teaching Modes
    Prior to the research internship, a project, or set of research-related activities that the student will work on are defined and agreed to by the host organisation, the student and the 最新糖心Vlog. Appropriate Internship projects/activities may include assisting with research design/protocol development, participant recruitment and data collection, data screening and analysis, conducting reviews (narrative, scoping, systematic, meta-analysis, meta-syntheses), drafting publications, or any other negotiated research-related task. As well as undertaking an agreed project, students will be involved in observations and meetings, to gain a clearer insight into the day-to-day functioning of the organisation.

    Students will attend face-to-face classes to enhance their research knowledge and skills and to conduct a presentation related to their research internship. Students will spend most of their time with the host organisation where they will develop and apply research knowledge and skills to an assigned project and/or set of tasks.
    Workload

    The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

    Flipped classroom videos: 1.5 hours
    Lectures: 3 one hour lectures = 3 hours
    Seminars: 2 three hour seminars = 6 hours
    Assignment 1: 2 hours
    Assignment 2: 2 hours
    Assignment 3: 5 hours
    Assignment 4: 5 hours
    Assignment 5: 1 hour
    Work in host organisation = 126 hours/18 days
    Learning Activities Summary
    In addition to 18 days undertaking tasks with the host organisation, students will engage with flipped classroom materials prior to attending an interactive, hand-on lecture on 3 occasions early in the semester. Students will also attend seminars later in the semester to present on their internship experience and observe other students doing the same.
    Specific Course Requirements
    Students will undertake an internship in a host organisation. Each organisation may have its own requirements that must be met before placement such as police checks, working with children checks and immunisations. Students will be notified of any requirements when given information about each internship opportunity so they can take any requirements into consideration before applying for specific organisations.
  • 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 Task Assessment Type Weighting % Course Learning Outcome(s) being assessed
    Research Protocol Assessment Summative 20% 1, 2, 3
    Research Quality Assessment Summative 30% 1, 2, 3
    Infographic Summative 20% 1 - 4
    Presentation Summative 30% 1 - 5
    Authorship Declaration Form Formative 0% 2
    Assessment Related Requirements
    Successful completion of the internship is required in order to pass this course. Should the host organisation be dissatisfied with the students’ performance this will be addressed by the student, the Host and the Course Coordinator giving the student a chance to address the concern to complete the internship.
    Assessment Detail
    Research Quality Assessment: Students will assess the quality of published research.

    Research Protocol Assessment: Students will apply knowledge of research protocols.

    Infographic: Students will create an infographic summarising an element of the research.

    Presentation: Students will present on their internship experience.

    Authorship Declaration: Students will submit an authorship declaration in collaboration with their host to ensure all parties are in agreement about whether the students work would constitute authorship on any publication related to the research.
    Submission
    Assignments are to be submitted via MyUni.

    The Course Coordinator may grant assignment extensions for medical, compassionate, or extenuating circumstances, when students apply in writing (or email) before the due date and time. No requests for extensions will be considered if made after the due date and time.
    Standard School penalties for late submissions; 5% of total marks available will be deducted for each day the work is late. Online submission is possible on weekends, so each day of the weekend will incur a penalty of 5%.

  • 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.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • 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.
