Approach to learning and assessment

Primarily, you will be learning online. Online materials can be accessed through an online system called myRMIT(www.rmit.edu.au/myrmit). There are also opportunities for you to participate in team-based projects and you may have the opportunity to beengaged in consulting activities. If you have any special needs during your time as a student, provisions will include extra tutorials and special assistance in computer laboratory.
The following are details of learning activities contained in the program:

  • Assessment will test your understanding of course materials. Provision for this will include written assignments and/or project works and written examinations.
  • Tutorials will provide you with extra assistance if you encounter difficulties. Content of the tutorials will also enhance problem solving skills.
  • Group participation through discussions and seminar presentations will encourage teamwork.
  • Consulting project works will provide practice in the application of theory to analysis of real world problems.
  • You are encouraged to seek learning materials from other sources such as libraries and the internet.
  • State-of-the-art cyber security software used in the program will provide you with hands-on-experience required for analysis of data.

If you have a long term medical condition, disability and/or other form of disadvantage it may be possible to negotiate to vary aspects of the learning or assessment methods. You can contact the program coordinator or the Equitable Learning Service 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.

Work integrated learning
