Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
Learning in this course is supported by a blended learning model that uses a mixture of delivery modes to ensure the course materials are aligned to and facilitate student achievement of learning outcomes. The course focuses on developing team project management skills and students will be required to apply, critique and reflect upon major subject themes through planning, conducting and evaluating their own team-based project. Each week students will work in project groups to collect information relevant to their project topics. Learning within this course is primarily self-directed as students will be expected to meet with their group members twice per week to plan, develop and finalise their group project. Structured learning activities include seminars and weekly consultation with their supervisor (face-to-face or online) during the development of their industry project.Workload

Speech Pathology Industry Project 1Assessment Detail
As industry projects may be sized for an individual student, pairs, or groups of three students, the assessment for this course will be scaled according to whether the student completes their project as an individual, pair or group. All students will complete each of the assessment activities, but these will be scaled to ensure equitable complexity and workload. Details of assessment are in MyUni.
Video project summary and reflection
Students will complete a 5 minute video that introduces the project, identifies the project purpose and objectives, and discusses the project plan. Students will identify expected outcomes and implications for translation. Students will submit a written reflection that critiques their learning, role and team processes in relation to their project plan.
Oral presentation

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.
