Course Information

Assessment

Marks for the course will be broken down as follows:

• 80% for two writing assignments (~1000 words) asking students to discuss topics covered by the course. One to be set mid semester, and one towards the end.
• 10% for contributing a peer review of each writing assignment.
• 10% for tutorial group contributions (explained in more detail in the tutorial section).

Tutorials

Tutorial groups will meet with tutors every other week, starting in week 2. In the weeks in between, smaller subgroups of the tutorial will be tasked with preparing discussion points based on a reading or prompt provided to them, in preparation for the next full tutorial. Submission of these discussion points before the tutorial will be the criteria for the 10% discussion contribution mark.
