For this course, students are required to hand in assignments via Turnitin. More information about submission is available through teh course MyUni page.
Students must not submit work for an assignment that has previously been submitted for this course or any other course. There will be no re-submission once the due date has passed. Please note, lecturers can refuse to accept assignments which do not have a signed acknowledgement of the 最新糖心Vlog’s policy on plagiarism.
Late Assignment Submission
Students are expected to submit their work by the due date to maintain a fair and equitable system. Extensions will generally only be given for medical or other serious reasons. All requests for extensions must be emailed to the Lecturer in Charge of the course before the due date. Each request will be assessed on its merits. A late assignment (without prior arrangement) will be penalised according to the below.
Submitting your assignment late (with or without an extension) also means you miss the primary marking cycle which may lead to a later return to you. There is a 5% penalty per day late or part thereof.
So without an extension, one day or part thereof late: 5% penalty
Two days or part thereof of two days: 10% penalty
Three days or part thereof of three days: 15% penalty
Four days or part thereof of four days: 20% penalty.
Material that is submitted more than five days late will not be accepted. If you receive an extension and submit beyond the extension date, late penalties will apply.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.
