Students in your units of study may require support to:

• understand how to analyse a task.
• become familiar with assessment types such as reflective tasks and case studies.
• develop or refresh their fundamental maths skills.
• incorporate maths to address specific assessment requirements.
• develop an understanding of statistics for research.
• improve skills in critical reading and writing.
• explore alternate problem-solving strategies.
• increase awareness of correct citation and referencing practices.
• learn how to produce an academic essay.
• develop paraphrasing strategies.

Your students

• What are your student demographics (particularly first-year undergraduate programs)?
• What are their levels of study?
• What do you know about their prior learnings and skills?
• Can you draw on their prior learning?

Your unit requirements

• What are the skills required for each assessment?
• When do the students need to demonstrate these skills? How do the assessment tasks build skills over the unit (and across the course)?
• Are the assessments sequenced? Can students draw on feedback from one task and apply this to subsequent tasks? How can your feedback enable this process?
• Have the assessment expectations been clarified for the students' level of learning?
