Approach to learning and assessment

RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with workplace experience. As a student enrolled in this RMIT University program you will be assessed on structured activities that allow you to learn, apply and demonstrate vocational competency.

In this program, learning and assessment are integrated, with assessment evidence being collected and feedback provided to you at anytime throughout the learning and assessment process. A range of strategies to meet different learner needs are used and comprise a mixture of: group-based, work-based, project-based, self-paced, action learning-based, conducted by e-learning and by observation of field and laboratory practices. Assessment of the accuracy of the graphical representation of field measurements plays a major role.

Assessments is undertaken throughout the program and includes

• Practical demonstration of use and skills of equipment,
• Completion of spreadsheets and written reports
• Computations, analysis and design
• Completion of computer reports, and correct use of software applications
• Completion of survey plans to industry standards
• Completion of a portfolio within a wiki environment
