Program delivery and structure
Approach to learning and assessmentWork integrated learningProgram structureApproach to learning and assessment
Over the duration of your program you will experience a variety of approaches to teaching and learning. The approaches used in each course will be appropriate to the core curriculum areas and graduate outcomes it is designed to develop, and to assist you in developing skills as an independent and life-long learner. It is important for you to note that you will be treated as an ‘adult learner’. This means you are expected to take responsibility for your own learning in a mature and independent way. Your interests and the value of this program to your future career prospects are enhanced by your engagement in learning activities.
The major styles of teaching, learning and assessment you will experience throughout your program will include:
Classroom teaching: May include lectures, class presentations, group discussions, student-led discussions etc. This style of learning is designed to maximise your understanding of the curriculum content and develop appropriate skills. It is designed to provide an environment where you can ask questions and seek feedback as well as contribute to class discussion and apply theory to practice.
Flexible delivery: The program will incorporate use of online resources. These may include learning resources such as lecture notes, and assessment and feedback tools such as discussion boards.
Problem-Based Learning: Problem-based learning engages you in analytical thinking, research and provision of solutions.
Cooperative learning: Enables you to work in collaborative or team-based tasks.
Assignments and projects: These may be either research or problem based, and may be undertaken in teams or individually. They will provide you with experience at undertaking research and writing effectively to present your findings and recommendations to a range of audiences.
In-class tests: Provide you with feedback on your early understanding within a course and allow feedback to assist you in further developing your skills and abilities.
Formal examinations: Will provide you with the opportunity to demonstrate your understanding and application of HRM principles to either practical or theoretical issues.
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.
