Important Information

During the comment process you are connected to a database. Like internet banking, the session that connects you to the database may time-out due to inactivity. If you do not have JavaScript running you will receive a message to advise you of the length of time before the time-out. If you have JavaScript enabled, the time-out is lengthy and should not cause difficulty, however you should note the following tips to avoid losing your comments or corrupting your entries:

  1. DO NOT jump between web pages/applications while logging comments.

  2. DO NOT log comments for more than one document at a time. Complete and submit all comments for one document before commenting on another.

  3. DO NOT leave your submission half way through. If you need to take a break, submit your current set of comments, take a note of where you up to and return later to make a further submission.

  4. DO NOT exit from the interface until you have completed all three stages of the submission process.

  5. If you would like a copy of the comments you made via the Bulletin Board, please email policy@rmit.edu.au and specify which document you provided feedback on and a copy of your submission will be emailed to you.

Principles

(1) RMIT ensures flexible, equitable and inclusive assessment with a commitment to supporting students whose circumstances require assessment flexibility to demonstrate their learning, in compliance with RMIT’s regulations, policies and procedures.

(2) RMIT supports students to achieve their intended learning outcomes while maintaining academic integrity. Special consideration, extensions, and individual assessment are reasonable and evidence-based arrangements to support students with extenuating circumstances or specific needs to succeed in their programs.

(3) RMIT assures quality and standards in assessments, results and the ratification of award completions through moderation, validation, and review processes under the oversight of course assessment committees and program assessment boards. These practices assure fairness, consistency, and equivalence of learning outcomes across all delivery modes and locations.

(4) RMIT ensures that all pieces of assessment, including exams, are monitored and invigilated appropriately, and are reviewed cyclically by the relevant authority.

(5) Results management prioritises accuracy and reliability through standardised quality processes throughout RMIT. Staff provide accurate and timely final results to support course and program progression, GPA and WAM calculation, and program completion.

(6) RMIT supports student success by monitoring academic progress and identifying at an early-stage students who are at risk of not successfully completing their program. RMIT provides a learning environment in which students are able to improve their performance by providing learning support, resources and assistance.

(7) RMIT ensures that assessment and academic performance matters fall under a robust appeals framework. Students are entitled to seek a review or appeal an assessment decision in accordance with the Assessment Procedure – Review and Appeals.
