Attendance Requirements

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes – in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).

Assessment Overview

Recommended Student Time Commitment

Each 6-credit Undergraduate unit at CQUniversity requires an overall time commitment of an average of 12.5 hours of study per week, making a total of 150 hours for the unit.

Assessment Tasks

Assessment Task Weighting

This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%).

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Source: Student evaluations
Feedback
Specific tutorials for the assessments would be beneficial for students' understanding of the assessment requirements and to establish expectations.
Recommendation
Run a Zoom tutorial session several weeks before each assessment due date to provide another forum for students to seek clarification of the requirements for the assessments and to establish expectations with regard to the depth of analysis.
Action Taken
These additional tutorials were provided, but attendance was low.
Source: Coordinator observations
Feedback
Students would benefit from seeing high quality submissions from previous students for the case study assessment to better visualise what they are being asked to provide in their own submissions.
Recommendation
Provide exemplars for the case study assessment so that students can examine the quality and depth of analysis of a successful submission.
Action Taken
This was not provided to students.
Source: Coordinator reflection
Feedback
The case studies and scenarios provided for the assessment items should be updated regularly for academic integrity reasons and to allow the provision of exemplars, as per the previous recommendation.
Recommendation
The case studies and the specific details of the hypothetical scenarios used for the assessments should be updated for the 2020 offering of this unit.
Action Taken
Additional information was provided on these scenarios by the outgoing Unit Coordinator before departure.
Source: CQU Restructure
Feedback
There are no further recommendations for improvement as this was the last offering of this unit.
Recommendation
