Participation in all teaching and learning activities is strongly encouraged. c. Minimum requirements to pass this unit of study: In order to achieve a pass in this unit of study, you must submit a passable Portfolio, see the Submission of Assignment section for details. As the minimum requirements of assessment to pass a unit and meet all ULOs to a minimum standard, an undergraduate student must have achieved: i. ii.

sign off all Pass Tasks as Complete, which can be done only by discussing your work with your tutor; and submit a Portfolio that meets the minimum set of criteria for passing this unit of study, see the Submission Requirements section for details.

f. Extensions and Late Submissions: Late Submissions - Unless an extension has been approved, late submissions will result in a penalty. You will be penalised 10% of the assessment’s worth for each calendar day the task is late, up to a maximum of 5 working days. After 5 working days a zero result will be recorded. g. Availability of Assessment Results, Retention of Assessed Materials: Assessed material will be returned to you, but you must retain all assessed material that contributes to the final grade up until such time as the final grades are published. The assessed material must, after a reasonable time, be produced on demand for review by the Convenor. Noncompliance with this requirement may result in loss of all credit for the assessed material not so produced. h. Groupwork Guidelines: There is no groupwork for this unit. i. Swinburne University of Technology’s definition of plagiarism: Plagiarism is the action or practice of taking and submitting or presenting the thoughts, writings or other work of someone else as though it is your own work. Plagiarism includes any of the following, without full and appropriate acknowledgment to the original source(s): (i) The use of the whole or part of a computer program written by another person; (ii) the use, in essays or other assessable work, of the whole or part of a written work from any source including but not limited to a book, journal, newspaper article, set of lecture notes, current or past student’s work, any other person’s work, a website or database; (iii) the paraphrasing of another’s work; (iv) the use of musical composition, audio, visual, graphic and photographic models, (v) The use of realia, that is, objects, artefacts, costumes, models and the like. Plagiarism also includes the preparation or production and submission or presentation of assignments or other work in conjunction with another person or other people when that work should be your own independent work. This remains plagiarism whether or not it is with the knowledge or consent of the other person or people. It should be noted that Swinburne encourages its students to talk to staff, fellow students and other people who may be able to contribute to a student’s academic work but that where independent assignment is required, submitted or presented work must be the student’s own. Enabling plagiarism contributes to plagiarism and therefore will be treated as a form of plagiarism by the University. Enabling plagiarism means allowing or otherwise assisting another student to copy or otherwise plagiarise work by, for example, allowing access to a draft or completed assignment or other work. The information outlined in this section above is covered in more detail in Swinburne Sarawak’s Student Academic Misconduct Regulations 2012 found at http://www.swinburne.edu.au/policies/regulations/academicmisconduct.html Students must be familiar with the regulations found at Student Administration > Assessment > Misconduct and Plagiarism at http://www.swinburne.edu.au/student-administration/assessment/misconduct.html

j. Assessment and Appeals Policy and Procedure The information outlined in the Assessment sections above is covered in more detail in Swinburne Sarawak’s Assessment and Results Policy. Students must be familiar with the Policy found at http://www.swinburne.edu.au/policies/academic/assessment.html and http://www.swinburne.edu.au/policies/regulations/reviews.html The Policy and Procedure provides details about: 

Assessment issues such as the conduct of examinations, plagiarism policies and details explaining how to apply for a review of results and other appeals, and



Student progress issues such as unsatisfactory academic progress and early intervention procedures, and



Information for students with disabilities and special needs and procedures for applying for special consideration.

Students should make themselves familiar with all aspects of the Policy and Procedure, as failure to do so is not grounds for appeal. Student Charter The charter describes what students can reasonably expect from Swinburne in order to enjoy a quality learning experience. As students contribute to their own learning experience and to that of their fellow students, the charter also defines the University's expectations of students. Please familiarise yourself with Swinburne’s Student Charter found at http://www.swinburne.edu.au/policies/hr/students.html Student Feedback: Swinburne seeks student feedback in a number of ways, including through periodic “Student Feedback on Units” and “Student Feedback on Teaching” surveys, as part of the university’s approach to quality assurance and improvement. Possible improvement based on both student and staff feedback is considered by Unit Convenors, Unit Panels made up of relevant teaching staff, Program Panels, Faculty Academic Committees, and the Academic Programs Quality Committee, as appropriate. Recent updates and improvements made to this unit of study on the basis of student feedback include: Not Applicable

Safety Standards and Conduct Requirements: The University executes safety drills without warning. Be prepared to follow instructions from staff and/or wardens to evacuate the building in a safe and orderly manner. All students are expected to respect the rights and sensibilities of their fellow students and teaching staff. This also applies in respect of the content of video and audio work submitted for assessment. The University had implemented anti-discrimination and harassment policies and procedures to promote a discrimination and harassment free work and study environment for all staff and students: http://www.swinburne.edu.au/policies/hr/behaviour.html Safety procedures in laboratories must be followed. For your own safety, bare feet, thongs and other open sandals are forbidden. Eating, drinking or smoking in laboratories is not allowed. A mature, sensible attitude and a healthy respect for the equipment are always required. Juvenile, illmannered or reckless behaviour will not be tolerated, and the laboratory supervisor has the right to exclude students from the laboratory should their behaviour constitute a danger to themselves or others. Such behaviour would result in forfeiture of all marks for that experiment. The playing of computer games is not allowed in the computer labs.
