Required texts
There are no set texts or required readings for this unit.
Submission of assessment items
Use of Machine Learning Technologies (AI)
Artificial intelligence
Students are permitted to use generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) as indicated in the assessment instructions for this unit, as well as Studiosity Writing Feedback Plus.
GenAI may only be used in authorised ways when completing assessments at UC. This means that GenAI can only be used for an assessment when:
-
the Unit Convener has authorised GenAI use for that assessment
-
the student uses GenAI in the way that the assessment instructions allow
-
the student fully acknowledges their use of GenAI, with proper citations, references and a GenAI Acknowledgement Statement in line with the assessment instructions.
Where the assessment instructions do not specifically state that GenAI may be used and how, then its use is not permitted for that assessment. Students must still provide the required GenAI Acknowledgement Statement to indicate whether GenAI¿has¿or¿has not¿been used in the preparation of the assessment. If unsure, students should seek advice from the Unit Convener.
The GenAI for Students Library Guide provides further information, including how to reference GenAI.
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
This project unit requires you to work independently and consistently throughout the semester.
You will need to put as much time as possible into the project work - averaging 8 hours per week. You are expected to attend supervisory meetings regularly, and it is your responsibility to maintain contact with your supervisor throughout the semester.
If your project starts going poorly for any reason, you must let your supervisor know as early as possible so we can negotiate a solution.
Participation requirements
In class presentations occur in week 2 unless you have made arrangements with the lecturer, and regular contact with your tutor is essential to ensure you do not end up with a poor final submission.
Required IT skills
Students undertaking this unit are expected the be in the final year of a digital media, games or interaction design degree or major in one of these areas, and are expected to have significant practical digital production skills. If in doubt, please discuss with your unit convenor as early as possible.
In-unit costs
Variable, depending on what you choose to do, however, we do not require or expect you to spend any money on your projects.
