Assessment
The University's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
- 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 Summary
ASSESSMENT TASK TASK TYPE WEIGHTING COURSE LEARNING OUTCOME(S) Social media audit and analysis Formative and summative 40% 1, 2 Portfolio and exegesis Summative 50% 1, 2, 3 Participation Summative 10% 1, 2
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 assessments are still group work. This means that students will need to make sure that they have the contact details of their group member/s.
Students will get in touch with their group member/s and develop a plan of action. Students can communicate and share ideas through Google docs, Box (see university web page link above), online chat or phone calls etc.
In the 3-hour Zoom class, breakout rooms for each group (or however many are present on the day) can be created to allow students to speak with their group without disturbing anyone else. The Course Coordinator can pop in to check on each group as well. After the class, students are welcome to remain or can start their own separate meetings.
Task 1a: Oral Presentation
Presentations can be done live on Zoom.
On the day of the presentations in Week 5, all groups will attend the Zoom class. This way, students will get to listen to everyone's presentation and participate in Q&A afterwards. Students can do their speech while sharing their screen, so everyone can see the student’s slides.Assessment Detail

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.

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.
