Assessment may be carried out progressively and/or at completion of the subject, and may involve one or more pieces of work (eg assignment, laboratory report, subject test or final examination). The assessment of an individual piece of work may be recorded and/or reported in various ways, such as standardised or unstandardised numerical marks or letter grades.
The overall assessment in a subject is subject to review, standardisation and possible amendment by the board of examiners before confirmation. Official notification of results to the student from the board of examiners is via the Student Administration office.
For each subject, a statement is provided, which sets out the type of work which contributes to the assessment and the proportion of assessment for each type. Any special requirements for assessment of the subject are also given. In particular, there may be a requirement to perform satisfactorily on each of a number of components of the subject.
Students are required to ensure that assessable work submitted by them is their own work unless otherwise clearly stated. In addition, they have the responsibility to ensure that other students do not have improper access to that work.
Additionally, those students with access to a university, institute or tertiary college campus may use terminals or dial-up modems at their local site to access university computers via AARNet. Remote (eg interstate or northern and western Victoria) students can use the AUSTPAC network to access university computers. Contact the Distance Education Resources Centre or your course adviser for details.
Some computing subjects require access to the university or other suitable timesharing computers for use of software which is not available in the microcomputer environment.
