Attendance Students are expected to view all lectures for MMCC8047. Lectures are not optional: they are a central component of meeting the learning outcomes in this unit and deliver important content that is directly assessed. Students who elect to not view lectures will miss out on important unit content and do so at their own risk. Students are likewise expected to attend all tutorials for MMCC8047. Tutorials are not optional: they deliver important content through practical application and are a central component of meeting the learning outcomes in this unit. Tutorials provide an environment where students can discuss ideas and learn from each other, building important networks and group work skills. In tutorials, you will also have the opportunity to ask for assistance from your tutor and receive informal feedback on work in progress. Students who do not attend tutorials will miss out on important unit content and learning activities and do so at their own risk.

Group Exercises Students in this unit must be willing to work within a group and to assume responsibility for the group's process. Students are required to wear comfortable clothes and shoes for practical exercises and tutorials.

Independent Work Students are expected to work independently outside of scheduled Class times when they are working on all assessments. MMCC8047 students will need to do their own reading of relevant texts and preparation of presentations outside class time.
