  • Assessment

    The University's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

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

    This course has a hurdle requirement. Meeting the specified hurdle criteria is a requirement for passing the course.


    Due to the current COVID-19 situation modified arrangements have been made to assessments to facilitate remote learning and teaching. Assessment details provided here reflect recent updates.

    The overall structure of course assessment is only subjected to minor changes:
    Online Test 1: 10%
    Online Test 2: 10%
    Guest lecture summary (short essay): 10%
    Practicals: 20%
    Examination: 50%

    However, the following modifications have been put in place:

    Tests (20%)
    As announced previously, the in-class tests are cancelled. They will be replaced by 2 online-tests in Week 7 (Friday) and Week 10 (Tuesday).
    Test 1: Basic concepts and electrostatics (Sections 2-5)
    Test 2: Magnetostatics and Induction (Sections 6-9)
    Details about tests will be provided in due time.

    Guest Lecture (10%)
    The guest lecture will go as planned in Week 12, but will be delivered online.
    The attendance marks will be replaced by marks on a summary due after
    the guest lecture in Week 12. Details will be provided at a later date.

    Practicals (20%)
    The marking structure of the practicals remains unchanged, but all practicals will be implemented online.
    The deadline for the pracs reports is advanced to Week 12, Monday 11 June 2020, 3 pm.
    Viva voce for the computing prac will happen in Week 12.

  • 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.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
