Approach to learning and assessmentWork integrated learningProgram structureApproach to learning and assessment
The learning experiences offered in this online program are designed to foster excellence in project management practice and to support continuous improvement in your learning and professional practice. This program is designed to be delivered using a variety of on line teaching approaches including online discussion boards and peer to peer on line group projects in conjunction with project work, team based activities and work integrated learning.
The program develops your learning in an on line learning environment utliising a range of on line learning tools and e-resources. You will engage in a range of learning activities including individual and small group work, case study analyses, on line discussions, peer to peer presentations, and work simulated scenarios, including industry projects. You will also connect with industry partners and interact with classmates from a broad range of organisations.
You will be encouraged to pursue your own areas of investigation and academic interests related to the project management profession and your learning will be informed and enriched by your critical engagement with current and emerging research into this profession.
Assessment is designed to give you opportunities to demonstrate your capabilities and to engage you in learning that is closely connected to industry. You will find that the forms of assessment used may be different for each course depending on the course objectives and learning outcomes.
Assessment involves ‘learning by doing’ and will include a range of activities such as report writing, written reflection, industry projects, portfolios, presentations, peer or industry review.
On going feedback will be provided by your lecturers and your peers to enhance your learning as you continue to refine your capabilities for your future professional practice and learning after graduation.
Details of assessment for each course are provided in the course guide system. Assessment varies for each course but may include one or more of the following:
- Case Studies
- Online Discussion Boards
- Project reports
- Assignments
- Presentations
- Reflective Journals
