Lectures – this course benefits from the real time delivery of content. Face to face lectures offer synchronous learning opportunities and enable students to quickly clarify complex descriptions and terminology. Much of the content for this course is presented by external speakers working in leadership roles within SA Health and other institutions. These are available to you online and via zoom.

Face to face tutorials –90% of any success comes from belief and confidence. We need to have technical skills and some physical attributes. However, when things start to get tough, we’re getting overwhelmed by challenge or pressure is really being applied by your boss, it’s belief and confidence that will drive you to success. The aim of these workshops and complementary assessments are to give you confidence and courage to believe in your ability to create success. 

Simulation Session - Transition Support Workshop                                                                                                                 

Each week students will have theoretical and practical work to complete. Readings will be accompanied by explanatory text, examples, questions and activities designed to help them to the most important points.

The workload for this course requires attendance at:
· 1 x 2 hour lecture / week 
· A selection of 1 hour tutorials per semester and 1 x 4 hour transition support session prior to your BN3C/D placements.

Assessment 1: Online Quiz
This is a compulsory assessment item for all students and must be completed by the due date unless an extension has been granted.
This online formative assessment will consist of a series of questions pertaining to information covered thus far in the course. Reference to the lecture notes will be useful in the completion of the quiz.

Assessment 2: Resilience and You
This assessment focuses on several parts. Attendance & participation at the mindfulness & transition support workshops and the completion of a workbook. 

Assessment 3: Peer Teaching 
Peer teaching: The first part of this assessment enables students to develop skills in organisation, planning learning activities and working collaboratively with others as well as providing and receiving feedback from your fellow team members. Students will work in small groups and are expected to consider the nature of the material, the level of knowledge of the student and determine how you would assess the understanding of students during and immediately following a teaching session. The benefits to you are that you will be reinforcing the skill knowledge and establishing effective teaching practices prior to your first rotation as a registered nurse. The second part of this assessment is a peer evaluaation of your team members and an individual reflection on the process of working as a group for this assessment.

Assessment 4: Online Quiz
Complete an online quiz relaating to the topics that have been covered up to that point in the course. This will be a selection of multiple choice, true or false and SAQ including uploading of activities that you have been asked to complete during each week. Reference to the lecture notes and having completed the weekly activities will be useful in the completion of the quiz.

Using Turnitin
Assessment submission information This semester we are using Turnitin for assessment submission. Please refer to your study guide for assessment details and the information below about Turnitin. Turnitin is an electronic program that enables students to check that they are referencing correctly. It also enables more efficient feedback as assignments submitted via Turnitin are assessed using an online process. Step-by-step instructions for submitting an assignment using Turnitin are on this webpage:

/myuni/student/tutorials/content/Turnitin-Submitting-a-Turnitin-Assignment-as-a-Student.html 

When you submit an assignment to this program, you will receive an "originality report" and an "originality score" - these will let you know if you have accidently used the words of other authors - any areas of your work that are too close to your cited or other resources will be highlighted. To see this report after you have submitted your assignment, go back into the program and click on "view" - this will show you your assignment with any similar text highlighted. Bear in mind that this program is very sensitive - don't worry too much if you seem to have a high originality score as the program includes quotes and references in the count. However, it is important that you check the text that is highlighted, if it is a correctly referenced quote or an item in your reference list that is highlighted then you can ignore it but if the highlighted text that isn't a quote or reference you will need to re-write those sections in your own words.

After you have submitted your assignment you will receive an email confirming that your assignment has been submitted correctly. If you do not receive this email then go back and try again. Keep the email you receive, just in case there are any issues with your assignment submission as we may need to view it to confirm your submission date and time. You can submit multiple times to this program - each new submission supersedes the previous, so we will only ever mark the latest version of your assignment! We encourage all students to practice with Turnitin before the final due date to make sure you know what you're doing.

A word of warning: although the program permits multiple submissions from a single student, Turnitin has a 24-hour lag between assignment submissions. For example, if you submit an assignment to the program at 10am on Sunday, you may not be able to submit again until 10am Monday! Be very careful to avoid a situation wherein you are unable to submit the final version of your assignment until after the final deadline. Falling into the 24hr lag window will not be grounds to avoid a lateness penalty, so if this happens you will need to use the online extension form. If at any time you are having trouble submitting your assignment, please let us know ASAP so we can make alternate arrangements and please contact the Service Desk on 08 8313 3000 (open 24 hours).

2022 saw lectures still being being online overall, with successful viewing by students according to their schedule. This may continue in 2023, with set posting times of content, so that students can regulate their viewing schedule. But if face to face lecutres are possible, then this will be encouraged as the addition of external guest speakers has previously been positively evaluated pre covid.

Positive feedback included the transition support day, the mindfulness workshop and the external speakers that were able to attend.
