Submission of assessment items

Extensions & Late submissions

Late Policy for this unit

Late Submissions

Where an assessment is submitted after the due date and time, the final mark for that item will be reduced by 10% of that maximum available marks per day (or part thereof) up to and including three calendar days following the due date/approved extension/reasonable adjustment.

• Late submissions may result in reduced feedback being provided.
• Students will be allocated a mark of zero if submittng more than three calendar days late (without an approved extension or reasonable adjustment), with no feedback provided.
• A student who does not undertake, submit or partcipate in a summatve assessment will be allocated a mark of zero.

Extensions

All extensions must be applied for in writing to the unit convenor before the due date of the assignment, and preferably well before this. Extension requests should state the reason the extension is being requested (unless the basis for extension is part of adjustment advice from inclusion and welfare), with supporting documentation attached to the official extension request form found on the 黑料吃瓜网 Learn Canvas site for the unit. Students should not assume an extension will be automatically granted.

Resubmission

This unit has substantial opportunities for feedback and self-assessment, so students who have fully participated in the unit activities are unlikely to fail. In some cases, resubmission of a failed assignment will be possible if the assessment item can feasibly be brought up to a pass level. A typical example might be an assignment that fails due to a missing component that can readily be supplied in a resubmission. The maximum grade for a resubmitted assessment item is 50%. Resubmissions are given at the discretion of the unit convenor, and must be applied for in writing (via email) within one week of the assessment grade being released.

Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at 黑料吃瓜网. 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.

黑料吃瓜网 students have to complete the annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).

黑料吃瓜网 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 University of Canberra (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.

Learner engagement

As this Unit is the culmination of your degree and is also used to plan the end of year graduate exhibition, it is expected that the workload will increase as the semester progresses. You will often be required to participate in planning and organisational activities outside of the standard workshop times. Please plan your time carefully to account for this, leading up to the exhibition. 

Participation requirements

This unit requires involvement and participation for organising the exhibition event and all related activities, which can be held in addition to the class timetable. The individual and group performance will be monitored on a weekly basis through progress, presentation and written report. The participation in the exhibition is essential and part of the unit grading. The students are also expected to check their 黑料吃瓜网 student email and Canvas site for the unit every day for any updates and announcements.
