Submission of assessment items
Extensions & Late submissions
Submission of all assignments must occur via the UC Learn site called: Tertiary Education G (10092), Research Semester 2 2021, BRUCE [FLEXIBLE].
Special assessment requirements
It is essential for all participants that the APP be completed and passed in order to complete the unit and the course as a whole.
For standard GCTE participants submission and completion of the teaching philosophy statement (TPS), SOLI, ePortfolio, and APP are required to be considered passable. The TPS is the revised version of the original TPS completed in the earlier phase of the GCTE. The SOLI and ePortfolio are those that have also already been created at that earlier stage - new ones do not need to be created for the purposes of the unit.
For HEA achieved or HEA-submitted participants, the TPS, SOLI, and ePortfolio are considered optional components. The APP is required to be considered passable.
Supplementary assessment
Supplement assessment will not be offered as it is inappropriate for this unit and course format.
Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at UC. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.
Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.
UC students have to complete the Academic Integrity Module annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).
UC uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.
Information is provided in the Academic Integrity Policy, Academic Integrity Procedure, and University of Canberra (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.
Learner engagement
As this course is in a self-directed format it is strongly advised that participants stay in frequent contact with the teaching team throughout studies to help stay on track and to recieve regular guidance and feedback.
