Following tasks are required of you every week:

Following tasks are required of you every week:

1. Read the Course Notes for the week and the additional readings.
2. Complete the weekly quiz.
3. Submit answers to each of the discussion questions in the Discussion Forum for that week, by the end of Wednesday. Submit your answers before reading the answers from other students.
4. Read the answers from other students and submit at least one reply to a posting your fellow students in the Discussion Forum, for each of that week’s questions, by the end of Sunday.

The questions each week are on topics to be covered in the assignments. You will receive a mark out of 2 (with the best 10 out of 12 counting to your final grade) and suggestions to help improve your work each week. All assessment is to be submitted on time, apart from special consideration for illness or other causes.

For the first two weeks of the course you are required to use a formal style for referencing, such as Harvard (author-date) style. This is so the tutor can check you know how to reference for the assignments. After two weeks you can use simple hypertext links.

Also, optionally, you can paste your draft answers into the text-match check. You can obtain assistance with referencing and writing from the ANU Academic Skills and Learning Centre.

You are to give a mark of 0, 1, or 2, to postings from other students, using the following scale. These marks are anonymous and are averaged by the system to be used by the tutor, as a guide to the grade given by the tutor each week:

Grading
Numerical Mark | Standard
2 | Greater than expectation: Work of good quality, displaying an understanding of the subject matter and a grasp of relevant skills that is above average: all questions answered and at least one reply to another student's posting on each topic.
1 | At expectation: Work of satisfactory quality, which displays an adequate understanding of most of the subject matter and a sufficient grasp of relevant skills: most questions were answered, and at least one reply to another student's posting on each topic.
0 | Limited contribution: Work which is incomplete or displays an inadequate understanding of the subject matter or an inadequate grasp of relevant skills. Few or no postings to the forums, or postings with content which not acceptable. In particular material which is not correctly referenced, or cited.
