Lectures for this unit are on Tuesday, 1-2pm in C5A 232.

There is an iLearn site for this unit. This is where you will find lecture slides, announcements, assessment instructions, and a link to audio recordings of lectures.

Some of the assessment tasks in this unit require access to a computer and to the internet. In order to complete the first assessment task students will need to be able to access GALE digital newspaper archives. These are available online though the National Library of Australia. However, you need to be a member of the library to gain access to the databases. Given this, it is strongly recommended that all students apply for membership no later than the end of week two (ie Friday 10th August) as applications take up to two weeks to process.
