If there is any doubt with regard to the requirements of any particular assignments, take-home assessment or assessment procedure, the onus for clarifying the issue rests with the student who should contact the lecturer about the matter. Tutors will also be happy to assist in this regard.
1. Students should keep a copy of all assessment items that are submitted.
2. The unit convener reserves the right to question students on any of their submitted work for moderation and academic integrity purposes.
3. The assessment criterion for answers to theoretical and technical questions is both 'correctness' and 'appropriate style' with correct referencing and citations.
4. The tutors will provide feedback to students on their assignments. Students are encouraged to seek individual feedback from the tutor/lecturer.
Referencing requirements:
All work quoted from other written sources should be appropriately referenced using the "author-date" (Harvard) style. This style is described in detail at .
Referencing is also required when using any GenAI tools which needs to be acknowledged as per the University's Guide.
Supplementary assessment
Refer to the Assessment Policy and Assessment Procedures.
Group Assignment Peer Assessment
In order to recognise the contributions of individual members in a team environment, a peer review may be conducted. This may potentially result in individual members of a group receiving different scores for the same assessment item. The details of this peer review will be published in Canvas with the assignment details.
Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at 乱伦社区. 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.
乱伦社区 students have to complete the annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).
乱伦社区 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.
