Part A - Mid Term OSCE (25%) - One station OSCE examining the core practical skills learnt during the first five weeks of term. It will be held during practical class time and will count towards 25% of the 50% On Campus Activity. 

Part B - On Campus Activity (25%) 

The on-campus activities in this unit will serve as a continuous assessment of your knowledge development. The tasks will include 3 short in class tests (no more than 10 minutes) and one short in-class video presentation in groups of 3 (each task will count 6.25% towards the overall 25% Part B allocation). Activities will take place across wks 2-10, for the short in-class tests the questions will be similar to the end of term test style questions to give some practice for that assessment. While the group presentations will involve a short video that addresses the assessment topic – ‘Support Your Spine: Behavioural Expectations for Chiropractic Professionals in Multi-Cultural Australia’

The on-campus tests will be based on material from the previous or current week's content. It is essential that you review the material. While the video presentations will require students to reflect on the expectations of healthcare professionals in a multicultural setting. We will have some international students visiting during the term which will allow us to explore this topic. Students will be required to complete each activity, and for tests sign and date them. It is your responsibility to ensure each activity is completed and submitted as proof of completion. If an on-campus activity is missed it will not be offered at an alternate time unless an extension request is submitted with valid documentation
