Attendance / engagement expectations
If your unit is offered On campus, it is expected that you will attend all on-campus and onsite learning activities. This is to support your own learning and the development of a learning community within the unit. If you are unable to attend regularly, please discuss the situation with your course coordinator and/or our UConnect support team.
If your unit is offered Online or includes online activities, it is expected you will engage in all those activities as indicated in the Unit Outline or MyLO, including any self-directed learning.
If you miss a learning activity for a legitimate reason (e.g., illness, carer responsibilities) teaching staff will attempt to provide alternative activities (e.g., make up readings) where it is possible.
The teachings will be covered online using recorded lectures, notes, multimedia resources and recommended references to contemporary literature. CAA322 learning is supported by on-campus practical intensives, which will cover ECG interpretation, skills and clinical simulation.
To get the most from the unit I expect that you will attend the on-campus learning activities. The exception are the students on the conversion pathways, who are not required to attend the practical intensives.
Your expectations for CAA322 are the following:
1.You are expected to log onto the MyLO site for CAA322 a minimum of twice weekly.
2.Check your student emails regularly. I will use your university email address for all correspondence.
3.Please be punctual for lectures, tutorials, and practicals, both online and face-to-face. I encourage your active participation in practical sessions.
4.Learning happens best in a respectful environment. We value the opinions and knowledge of the entire cohort.
5.In encourage you to complete all practice and formal assessment tasks to maximise your learning.
What can you expect from the me as academic staff member?
1.I will provide you with a range of information and learning opportunities that will be engaging, relevant and educational.
2.I will be well-prepared and punctual.
3.I will respect you as learners and encourage your active participation. We also recognise that the subject content may provoke emotion at times. Student welfare is our primary focus: if we are unable to assist, we will offer you the appropriate support service (these can be found on the Study Support and Safety, Health and Wellbeing pages from the Current Students portal of the University website).
