Overview of Assessment
Students must demonstrate competency in all elements of this course to be deemed competent. Assessment methods have been designed to measure achievement of competency in a flexible manner. Assessment will incorporate a variety of methods: online exercises and activities, group work and an in-class test. Due to the complex nature of this competency, students may be required to demonstrate competency in any element more than once. Students are advised that they are likely to be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment work to their teacher to ensure that the relevant competency standards are being met. In addition, formative feedback will be provided to students throughout the course.
