Approach to learning and assessment

Course content will be delivered by academic staff and tutors.  RMIT approves the qualifications of all teaching staff who teach RMIT courses. Assessment tasks are reviewed and approved by RMIT, and all results are moderated by RMIT course coordinators.

You will be given a list of prescribed texts and recommended readings, which you should consult regularly in order to progress successfully through the program.

Your class time will comprise a combination of lectures, tutorials, class discussion and activities.

The following teaching and learning approaches form the basis of your learning experiences:

• You will be offered a learner-centred curriculum that encourages learner engagement and participation providing you with opportunities to communicate in a variety of modes.
•  You will be engaged in projects and authentic tasks that require you to work in multidisciplinary teams on multidisciplinary problems and critically engage with aspects of team development and conflict resolution.
• You will undertake projects that require you to access a wide variety of knowledge repositories including professional journals, discussion lists and online sources of material.
• Your learning experiences will contain a broad mix of study modes, including lectures, seminars, workshops and weekly classes, using face-to-face, on-line and other flexible delivery mechanisms.

 

Assessment:

To ensure that you have achieved the required learning outcomes and developed critical capabilities you must be assessed.  Assessment is designed to give you opportunities to demonstrate your capabilities.  You will find that the forms of assessment used may be different for each course, as the assessment you receive must be appropriate to the objectives of each course. The assessment you receive is critical to the success of your degree program, and to your future success in the workplace.  The Graduate Capabilities designed into your program (a pre-requisite for your success) are satisfied only if the Learning Outcomes specified for each course are known to have been satisfied.  Assessment may be expected to take different forms, such as:

• Assignments and projects: these may be done individually or in groups.  This method may also enable you to demonstrate your ability to work alone or as a member of a team;
• Reflective journals: where you pause to consider what you have learnt, along with reflecting on the self-development associated with that learning;
• Assessed tutorials: a form of in-class test, which may be done individually or as a team;
• Laboratory reports: which provide an exercise in experimentation, report writing and critical analysis of data;
• Self-assessment and peer-assessment: for assessment activities such as seminars you will assess yourself or your own group; or assess the work of other groups.  This is part of equipping you to become more independent in your own learning and assessing your own and others’ performance.
• Examinations: an individual form of assessment where you have the opportunity to demonstrate your ability to explain fundamental principles and solve problems;
• Most of the assessment you undertake (the exception is exams) will enable your lecturer to provide you with feedback on your strong and weak points.  This will enable you to improve your future performance.  Speak to your lecturer if you are not receiving helpful feedback.

If you have a long term medical condition and/or disability it may be possible to negotiate to vary aspects of the learning or assessment methods. You can contact the program coordinator or the Disability Liaison Unit if you would like to find out more.

If you have already developed areas of skill and knowledge included in this program (for example, through prior studies or work experience), you can apply for credit once you have enrolled in this program. There is information on the RMIT University website about how to apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) http://www.rmit.edu.au/students/enrolment/credit/he.
