Submission of assessment items

Extensions & Late submissions

It is the student's responsibility to upload the correct and corresponding draft or assessment item to the right submission section. Assignments must be submitted in a format accessible to the assessor(s), as stated on the relevant canvas site. If the unit convener and/or tutor are unable to access a submission, a standard late penaltymay be applied per day until the assignment is made accessible.

Late submissions will only be accepted for a limited period. If more than one late submission is made within that period, only the first late submission will be accepted for marking and may be subject to penalties as detailed in the Assessment Procedures.

Should the unit convenor approve an extension request, it is highly unorthodox that extensions will be granted for more than 5 days. (RAP students included) It is important to realise that if an extension is approved and the assessment is submitted late, this will delay the marking process. This can result in an inability to commence following units and hinder your progress through your course.

Special assessment requirements

Assignments are graded. In order to pass this unit, all assignments must be submitted and an overall mark of 50% or more must be reached.

When you have allocated to a tutorial, this tutor is your contact person for feedback on assessments, however they may not mark all of your assessments as marking is completed by UC Counselling Academics and is allocated depending on workloads.  

Resubmissions are not avaiable in this unit.

UC 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.

Participation requirements

Attendance at tutorials is essential in this course. Students will be able to attain and demonstrate the required learning outcomes in their assessments if they attend and fully participate in the tutorials. Recordings will be made available for those who are unable to attend the tutorial sessions, however, sections of the video may be removed from the recording if sensitive information has been disclosed. Experience from past years indicates that students who do not participate in tutorials have a risk of failing the unit.
