A NOTE OF WELCOME

Welcome to AIF342 -- Professional and Academic Indonesian B. In this unit, we will continue to extend our

knowledge of Indonesian by reading and using materials intended for native speakers. This will continue the

work you did in AIF341. In preparation for class, please read the unit guide carefully. We will discuss the

structure of the unit in class in week 1 of the trimester.

I am pleased that you have decided to take Indonesian this semester and look forward to seeing you in class.

UNIT DETAILS

Unit overview

This unit will prepare students to use the language styles appropriate for professional and academic activities

in Indonesia. Students will read unedited original articles on topics of current interest in Indonesian society

including education, employment, business, tourism and work. Students will also be introduced to Indonesianfiction in the form of short stories. Students will learn to discuss these subjects using natural, appropriate

language and in an informed way, comparing them with the comparable situations in Australia, both orally and

in writing.

Content covered

This unit will focus on the same themes as AIF341 Professional and Academic Indonesian A. More topics willbe included and more fiction covered. At the end of this unit students will be capable of communicating with

Indonesians on a range of topics in professional and academic environments. Students will also be able to

discuss the Australian situation with the same degree of ability and complexity.

Page 11 of 15

Assignment return and feedback

In setting assessment tasks that depend on feedback from a previous task, the due date will be set to ensure

that feedback can be provided in time for you to benefit from the feedback.

Assignments which are submitted on time will normally be assessed and returned to students within three

weeks of the due date of submission for the assessment item.

In circumstances where feedback cannot be provided within this timeframe a notice shall be placed on

CloudDeakibnadvising you of when you can expect feedback and the reason for the delay.

There will normally be no opportunity for resubmission of assignments. However students who feel that the

assessment of their work was unfair should contact the Unit Chair.

Late submission of assignments

Late submission will be penalised as follows:

Definition

1. WorkingDaymeans 9am 5pm Monday to Friday

Rules

2. Assessment tasks submitted after the advertised date of submission, without an approved extension being

granted, shall receive a penalty of five percent (5%) per day for each working day late.

3. No assessment task shall be accepted more than two (2) weeks after the advertised date of submission,

unless an extension has been granted or an application for Special Consideration has been submitted.

Procedure4. Students submitting an assignment for which they have been granted an extension must clearly record both

the amended approval date for submission and the name of the approving staff member attached to the

relevant Assignment Cover Sheet for that assessment task. This can be done by attaching a copy of the email

approval for instance.

5. Where an application for late submission has not been negotiated prior to the advertised date of submission,

late assessment tasks will only be accepted up until two (2) weeks after the due date.

6. Where an assessment has been submitted late, the Unit Chair will endeavour to provide feedback to the

student in a timely manner. However, the normal arrangement where work is returned to students within 15

working days of the assignment due date will be waived.

Assignment extensions

If you wish to seek an extension for an assignment, you will need to apply by email directly to your Unit Chair

(or where directed, Campus Coordinator) as soon as you become aware that you will have difficulty in meeting

the scheduled deadline but at least three days before the due date. Appropriate documentation should be

submitted in support of your application, such as a medical certificate. A maximum of 14 days can be normally

granted as an extension.

Please attach the Unit Chairsemail approval to your assignment when submitting it.

Special consideration

8/12/2019 AIF342 2013

12/15



Page 12 of 15

Special Consideration is only given in the case of serious and exceptional circumstances which are beyond the

student's control and these circumstances prevent the student from performing at their best for a particular

piece of assessment. In the first instance students should approach their Unit Chair or Faculty Student

Support Centre to discuss any concerns. In many circumstances an extension of time granted by the Faculty

may be sufficient to assist the student through their particular difficulty.

The reasons for application must be classified under one of the following categories: Medical; Compassionate;

or Hardship/Trauma. Students must provide evidence to support the reasons for their application; therefore all

applications for Special Consideration must be accompanied by appropriate documentation from a recognised

authority.

You can now apply for Special Consideration online. To access the application portal, log into Student Connect,

www.deakin.edu.au/studentconnect and click SpecialConsiderationon the left vertical (blue) menu. Read all

the information carefully and follow the prompts to submit your application.

A Student User Guide is also available from this location. Further information is available from your faculty

campus office or student centres.

An application for Special Consideration MUST be lodged NO LATER than three (3) University working days

after the assessment item's due date or the date of a scheduled examination. Students, who for very genuine

reasons are not able to apply online, must contact their Faculty Campus Office or Student Centre. The

hardcopy application form is not available to be downloaded.

Further information regarding Special Consideration can be found on the Current Students website located

http://www.deakin.edu.au/current-students/services/health/academic-success/special-consideration.php

ACADEMIC HONESTY AND MISCONDUCT

Plagiarism, cheating and collusion

Plagiarism and collusion constitute extremely serious academic misconduct. They are forms of

cheating, and severe penalties are associated with them, including cancellation of marks for a

specific assignment, for a specific unit or even exclusion from the course.

The Universitysdefinitions of plagiarism and collusion are as follows:

Plagiarism occurs when a student passes off as the studentsown work, or copies without

acknowledgment of its authorship, the work of any other person. Collusion occurs when a student obtains the agreement of another person for a fraudulent purpose with

the intent of obtaining an advantage in submitting an assignment or other work.

Deakin University views plagiarism and collusion very seriously and may impose significant penalties. Under

its policy on plagiarism and collusion students are responsible for ensuring that:

they are familiar with the expected conventions of authorship and the appropriate use and

acknowledgement of all forms of intellectual material relevant to their discipline; work submitted for assessment is their own; and, they take all reasonable steps to ensure their work cannot be accessed by others who might seek to

submit it, in whole or in part, as their own.

Whenever you refer to another persons research or ideas (either by directly quoting or by paraphrasing

them), you MUST acknowledge your source. If you are ever in doubt about how to properly cite a reference,

consult your lecturer or the Study Skills website atwww.deakin.edu.au/study-skills. There is also a great deal

of information on referencing and avoiding plagiarism atwww.deakin.edu.au/referencing .

The University policy of plagiarism and collusion is available from The Guidehttp://theguide.deakin.edu.au/ .

Page 13 of 15

Regulation 4.1(1)Student Discipline also contains important information regarding academic misconduct.

Unauthorised collaboration

Unauthorised collaboration is a form of collusion. It involves working with others with the intention of

deceiving your markers about who actually completed the work. If you have collaborated with others in

preparing an individual assessment item, you must disclose this to your lecturer. Assignments will sometimes

be set as group work, but even in these cases generally you will still have to write up and submit your own

report.

If you have any doubt as to what constitutes authorised or unauthorised collaboration, consult with your

lecturer.

Penalties

The Assessment Panel or Faculty Academic Progress and Discipline Committee will impose a penalty on any

student who is found to have committed an act of academic misconduct such as plagiarism, collusion,

examination cheating or unauthorized collaboration. These penalties can include:

- a reprimand

- a fine up to $500

- allocation of a zero mark in the relevant task (or another such mark as is appropriate)

- allocation of a zero mark in the relevant unit (or another such mark as is appropriate)

- allocation of a zero mark in other units in which the student is enrolled

- suspension of the student for up to one year

- exclusion of the student for a minimum of one year.

Things you should never do

There are some activities that are never acceptable in the preparation of assignments at the tertiary level.

Students who engage in any of the following activities create some doubt in the mind of the reader that the

student's work is original. Many of these activities leave the student open to charges of plagiarism.

Students should never:

Submit an assignment without providing a list of references used. Copy one or more sentences from a reference source (book, journal, web page, etc.) without formatting

and citing the material as a quotation. Use data in the form of numbers, tables, graphs, diagrams or other images without citing the source of the

material.

Use program source code, even if it is freely available in the public domain, without citing the source ofthe code. Take material from reference material and paraphrase it (write it in your own words) without citing the

source of the material. Refer to another personsidea without citing the source of the idea.

this unit, you must reference any outside sources used. However, you are not required to make use of any

reference materials in the essays for this unit.

All work submitted must be original and written specifically by the student ALONE for this unit. Students may

not ask others to correct their work before submission or obtain advice or assistance from any other person in

the writing of their essay. Questions about grammar, structure, and content may be addressed to the

lecturer/coordinator, but must be about specific issues, not general assistance.

Plagiarism and collusion are serious academic offenses that carry heavy penalties.

Succeed with your studies

Study skills

Studying at university requires particular academic skills that all students need to develop. For example, very

early in your studies, you may realise that you need to manage your time effectively because you have a lot of

freetime. Also early on in a trimester, lecturers begin to mention assignments or essays. Again, knowing howto do an assignmentis critical to getting good marks. For more information and resources to help with such

skills as planning your time, essay writing, effective reading, referencing and exam preparation, check the

Study Skills website atwww.deakin.edu.au/study-skills
