- Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
- Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
- Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
- Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Assessment Detail
The assessment components are as follows:
Session Participation 10% Ongoing through trimester
During each session students have the opportunity to discuss case studies, make comments and add to the learning environment. You do not receive marks just for turning up - you must listen attentively, make contributions and also show insights in your participation. For those students offshore, a question is posed each session and you have a deadline to respond to that in writing on the My Uni system. Again the quality of the answers and insight is part of the marks.
Advertising Presentation 10%
This is presented as a group but you are marked individually. As there are onshore and offshore enrollments, the 'presentation' will actually be a power point with a written script with references.
Communications Audit (group) 10% 2500 words
You select a company that has been heavily promoted across a range of media. While it may be a global, national or regional campaign, focus on what is shown, viewed or accessible for Australian consumers. More details in class.

Continuing from your Audit, you prepare an extensive brief to an Advertisign and Public Relations Agency. More details in class.

Student Feedback
The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.
