This course will be presented as an intensive program of interactive learning. Lecturers will use illustrations from their own work along with structured exercises and group discussion as a way of supporting participants to engage with narrative practice. The emphasis will be on developing skills in using the narrative approach and how these might apply in a variety of settings. On the foundation of the study of narrative ideas and their philosophical/theoretical background, and skills-based learning, students are encouraged to connect their study to their own work and areas of interest, and to develop their own narrative ways of working.

The learning from these face-to-face workshops will be extended through submission of critical analysis of and reflections on provided readings. A narrative conversation that participants conduct with a fellow student currently enrolled in the Masters program will be recorded and partially-transcribed, and used as the basis for an assignment focussing on the use of ‘narrative mapping’.

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

The workload for this course is equivalent to 12 hours per week over a semester. Full attendance is required at the interactive workshop.

Critical analysis of narrative practice (1500-2000 words: 30%)
Each participant is expected to submit a critical analysis of selected reading on narrative practice. The aim of the analysis is to consider the implications of narrative approaches for therapeutic practice. These readings and further instructions will be available on MyUni.

Recording and structured analysis of a narrative interview (2500-3000 words: 60%)
To demonstrate competence with interviewing skills and familiarity with narrative philosophy and practice, students will conduct and record a narrative interview, subjecting this interview to a structured analysis according to standard narrative ‘mapping’ practice. An information and consent form regarding the recording and further use of the interview will be provided to students for the interviewee to sign. Further instructions will be available on MyUni.

Participation (10%)
Students are expected to attend and participate in seminar/workshops according to group and program norms. Further details will be made available on MyUni.

Extensions
All extensions for assignments must be requested, at the latest, by the last working day before the due date of submission.   Extensions will generally be granted only on medical or genuine compassionate grounds. Supporting documentation must be  provided at the time a student requests an extension. Without documentation, extensions will not be
granted. Late requests for extension will neither be accepted nor acknowledged.

Only the Course Co-ordinator(s) may grant extensions.

Supporting documentation will be required when requesting an extension. Examples of documents that are acceptable include: a  medical certificate that specifies dates of incapacity, a police report (in the case of lost computers, car & household theft etc.), a letter from a Student Counsellor, Education and Welfare Officer (EWO) or Disability Liaison Officer that provides an assessment of compassionate circumstances, or a letter from an independent external counsellor or appropriate professional able to verify the
student’s situation. The length of any extension granted will take into account the period and severity of any incapacity or impact  on the student. Extensions of more than 10 days will not be granted except in exceptional circumstances.

Late submission
Marks will be deducted when assignments for which no extension has been granted are handed in late.

All assignments, including those handed in late, will be assessed on their merits. In the case of late assignments where no  extension has been granted, 5 percentage points of the total marks possible per day will be deducted. If an assignment that is 2  days late is awarded 65% on its merits, the mark will then be reduced by 10% (5% per day for 2 days) to 55%. If that same  assignment is 4 days late, the mark will be reduced by 20% (5% per day for 4 days) to 45%, and so on.

The School of Public Health reserves the right to refuse to accept an assignment that is more than 7 days late.

Assignments submitted after the due date may not be graded in time to be returned on the listed return dates.

Students submitting examinable written work who request (and receive) an extension that takes them beyond the examination  period are advised that there is no guarantee that their grades will be processed in time to meet usual University deadlines.

Resubmission
If a student is dissatisfied with an assessment grade they should follow the Student Grievance Resolution Process /student/grievance/process/  Students who are not satisfied with a particular assessment result should raise their concerns with Course Co-ordinator(s) in the first instance. This must be done within 10 business days of the date of notification of the result.  Resubmission of any assignment is subject to the agreement of the Course Co-ordinator(s) and will only be permitted for the most compelling of reasons.
