RMITV - Student Community Television Inc. Room 97, Level 3, Building 12, RMIT University City Campus P: (03) 9925 3416 E: [email protected] www.rmitv.org Dear Producer, Thank you for expressing interest in producing your next project with RMITV. RMITV is a student-led television production house operating out of RMIT University and is always on the lookout for new content ideas. This guide will provide you with an outline on making a program with RMITV and the program proposal guidelines. Where do I begin? For your production to be considered you will need to prepare and send a program proposal to the RMITV Content and Development Manager. Only pitches from current RMITV members will be considered, please note that you do not have to be an RMIT student to become a member. Membership details can be found on https://www.joinit.org/o/rmitv-student-community-television. IMPORTANT PRODUCER INFO All producers should read and familiarise themselves with the RMITV/SCT Inc Constitution and Programming policies, as well as all other current policies, available on the RMITV website: www.rmitv.org. To be considered, producers are required to have completed at least one full season of crewing on an RMITV program. Program proposals are reviewed by the Content and Development Manager. The decision-making process usually takes 3-4 weeks. The producer grants to RMITV SCT Inc. a special purpose, non-exclusive licence which permits RMITV to reproduce parts of the Program (no more than 7 minutes or 40% of a total episode, whichever is longer) for the purpose of promotion of RMITV. -

Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value Through an International Partnership
Asia-Pacific Conference Library & Information Education & Practice, 2011 Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value through an International Partnership JULIA LEONG, [email protected] University Library, RMIT University LOC HUU NGUYEN, [email protected] Beanland Library, RMIT International University Vietnam ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of blended learning – the fusion of face-to-face and online learning experiences – to implement an effective and culturally sensitive program of professional development in an Australian university working in a developing country. It sought insight into pertinent pedagogical approaches for staff development across multiple locations including across national boundaries. The project demonstrates how learners can develop new capabilities and approaches by building on existing skills and knowledge as they interact in communities of practice. The immediate purpose was to design and deliver a continuing professional education program to meet the needs of librarians working at RMIT International University Vietnam in the context of the demands of the academic community and in the light of the challenge library staff experienced in seeking to meet explicit and tacit expectations. The project ran from late January to mid December 2010. The research questions were: „Is blended learning effective as an approach to continuing professional development when working across cultures in a multinational organization?‘ and ‗What contribution do face-to-face and online components make to learning outcomes?‘ The methodology used was an action learning approach. A 2009 consultant's report into the RMIT Vietnam Library established professional developmental needs which were further detailed in February 2010 by the project leader from RMIT University, Melbourne using a skills audit. -
Second Quarter Report
RMIT University Student Union Second Quarter Report Reporting Period: 1 April – 30 June 2018 President’s Report he second quarter has seen the RMIT University Student Union continue to do what it does T best, by serving the needs of all students while providing plenty of opportunities to have fun, socialise, grow, develop skills, and give back. During the second quarter, our amazing team of volunteers contributed over 1,500 hours of their time to support and feed their fellow students, helping to make the University a better place for everyone. We held a wonderful event in May to say thank you to these very special students and ensure that they are recognised for their efforts. RUSU’s weekly Chill ‘n’ Grill events continue to feed (and entertain) thousands of hungry students across the metropolitan campuses, while the Healthy Breakfast program has grown considerably to now provide an average of 2800 serves of fresh fruit, vegan cakes, yoghurt cups and bread with delicious dips per week. In addition, RMIT’s vocational education students were treated to a bi-monthly free lunch in the Building 57 courtyard, with almost 1800 hot meals provided in semester one. RUSU continues to grow our wide variety of offerings while maximising efficiency to get the most out of our programs.

An Adaptive Low-Power Listening Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks in Noisy Environments

04 Quarterly Report 2017 WEB.Pdf
RMIT University Student Union Fourth Quarter Report Reporting Period: 1 October – 31 December 2017 President’s Report s we come to the end of the year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on 2017 and the many A fantastic things the RMIT University Student Union has been able to achieve. We’re proud of the progress we have made throughout the year and the continued hard work of our student representatives and team of staff. With the completion of the New Academic Street, RUSU was able to finally re-open our Realfoods cafe. The new space in Building 8 has been a long time coming, but it looks fantastic and we can’t wait to really embrace it in 2018. It’s important for students to have access to affordable healthy, ethical, and sustainable food and drinks on campus, and we’re so pleased with how the new storefront has turned out. Constitutional changes do not happen very often, but in 2017 we were able to make a very significant one with the introduction of an Indigenous Officer position on the Student Union Council. The first RUSU Indigenous Officer, Jedda Rocha Costa started her term on 1 November. Welcome Jedda! On a personal note, I was honoured to be elected the President of RUSU for another year and will continue to advocate for the rights of all students while ensuring that RUSU upholds its high standards. We’re looking forward to 2018 and working with the University to make sure the needs of students are always at the centre of decision making at RMIT. -
A Distributed National Stored Collection: Testing the Possibilities
A Distributed National Stored Collection: Testing the Possibilities Paul Genoni School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts Curtin University GPO Box U1987, Perth 6845 [email protected] Abstract This paper reports on a study of the holdings of a single discipline (Design) by a single institution (RMIT University Library) in order to test for the possibility of a form of distributed national storage in Australia. The study was undertaken using OCLC Collection Analysis software and the WorldCat database. The collection of RMIT University Library is compared with two ‘groups’ of libraries, the first consisting of seven Victorian academic library collections, and the second of three Melbourne-based non-academic libraries considered to have strong Design collections. Conclusions indicate that for this discipline a form of distributed storage is already in place, with the RMIT University Library collection making a considerable and complementary contribution to the state wide holdings. Keywords Print storage; Collection overlap; OCLC Collection Analysis; National repository; Australia Introduction As libraries struggle with the rising costs of print storage they are inevitably seeking ways of reducing this ongoing impost. Various forms of shared or collaborative storage have emerged as a possible solution, and these are increasingly based on some form of national strategy that ensures long-term retention of individual titles while allowing libraries to de-duplicate local collections. Australian research libraries, deterred by issues related to access and up-front costs, have shown a disinclination to create a large, centralised national repository. Another option might be found, however, in a form of distributed, library-based storage such as that adopted in the United Kingdom. -
