Unit Assessment Breakdown: Because each assignment builds on the preceding one assessment has an important formative role; Print and post mode: 3 written assignments, Online mode: discussion (50%); final assignment (50%). Face to face mode: presentations & discussion (50%); final assignment (50%). In all modes the student must complete successfully each assessable component (i.e., 50% minimum), but it is expected that the student will aspire to a 'mastery' grade of at least 80%.
