Submission of assessment items
Extensions & Late submissions
Students who do not submit the research paper will receive a final grade of NC (Not Complete).
Late submission of Research paper without an approved extension will results in a penalty of 5% reduced marks from the total available, per calendar day late. Research paper submitted over 5 days late will not be accepted.
Special assessment requirements
- An aggregate mark of 50% is required to pass the unit.
- Students who do not participate in the Research Paper will receive a final grade of NC (Not Complete).
- The unit convener reserves the right to question students orally on any of their submitted work and may adjust awarded marks based on this questioning.
- See Grading Schema for the full grading schema and grade descriptors.
- Late submission of quiz is not allowed.
Details of each assessment item
An overall mark is calculated as a sum of marks obtained for the items listed in 5(a).
The grade requirements are then
Grade |
Overall Mark |
HD |
>= 85% |
DI |
>= 75% |
CR |
>= 65% |
P |
>= 50% |
The unit convenor reserves the right to question students on any of their submitted work for moderation and academic integrity purposes, which may result in an adjustment to the marks awarded for a specific task.
Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.
Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.
º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ students have to complete the annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).
º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.
Information is provided in the Academic Integrity Policy, Academic Integrity Procedure, and º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.
