  • Steps to Uni for Year 10 Students – UAC Booklet
    Careers News 9 June 2020 - Mr David Russell Curriculum Co-ordinator (7-12) | Student Advisor (7-12) Steps to Uni for Year 10 Students – UAC booklet UAC have a booklet designed for Year 10 students to help them in selecting courses for Year 11 and 12 and providing information about future University study after Year 12. To view the booklet, please use the link… https://www.uac.edu.au/assets/documents/year-10/year-10-booklet-2023.pdf In this booklet, the universities and colleges that make offers through UAC have listed the courses they plan to offer in 2023; that is, the degrees and diplomas you’ll be able to study when you leave school. For each course they have also set out, where applicable, details of: − areas of study − prerequisites − assumed knowledge − recommended studies − additional selection criteria. Prerequisites are HSC courses you need to have completed in order to be offered a place in a university course (course prerequisites) or a subject within that course (subject prerequisites). Some institutions assume you have knowledge of specific HSC courses or equivalent when you start your university course. If you haven’t studied the HSC course you can still be selected for the course, but you may have some difficulty coping with your studies. Most institutions offer bridging courses if you have not studied the HSC courses listed as assumed knowledge, but bridging courses are not equivalent to the two-year HSC course and may add significantly to your workload. This booklet also provides general information about HSC courses, how the ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank) is calculated and used for university entry, and why your selection rank for a course might be higher than your ATAR.

  • A New Approach to Post-Graduate Educational Programs for The
    A New Approach to post-graduate educational programs for the Creative Industries. A portfolio detailing the development of the pedagogical component, submitted in part-fulfilment of the requirements for a Professional Doctorate (Industry and the Professions) by JOHN MARTIN CASCARINO Student No: 220053327 Acknowledgement Without the assistance of others this project would never have reached fruition. There have been many who have provided assistance and support. JMC Academy: Barbra Nolan, Rick Grossman, Richard Stomber, Karen Markakis, Anna Darling, Rebecca Yang, Fenny Susanty. Members of the JMC Academy course advisory committee: Dr Adrian Bennett (Director of Education), Glenn Ferguson (Head of Audio JMC Academy Sydney), Kemo Bunguric (Head of Music JMC Academy Sydney), Sean Callinan (Head of animation and Games JMC Academy Sydney), Amon Broughton (Course Co-ordinator). External members of the JMC Academy course advisory committee: Michael McMartin, David Webster, Dr Shilo McClean, Dr Lee McGowan, Dr Denis Crowdy, Professor Peter Flood. A special mention must go to my wife Heather for her infinite patience at home, in airport lounges and in flight as I focused on the project leaving Heather to virtually travel alone. Thanks also to my now adult children, Rachel, Mathew and Jami for understanding my apparent absenteeism. Thanks to my colleague in this project JMC Academy CEO Mr George Markakis. There are two parts to this project, the pedagogic for which I was responsible and the commercial for which George was responsible. I have no doubt that if I’d of had any other colleague on this project the results may not have been as positive.

In just one word – BIG Universities and Tertiary Institutions usually only hold one major Open Day each year - it’s your best chance to find out what life at each university is like, and what they can offer you. Open Days are fun, exciting and interactive. You can expect to take part in mock lectures, see live displays, tour labs and classrooms, as well meet lecturers and students. Universities take their Open Days seriously, and so should you. It’s never too early to get along to Open Day, and even if uni is still years away you’ll find something of value. And if uni is just around the corner, this could be your last chance to ask questions before you need to make some big decisions about your future. Planning for Open Day season can be tricky but we’ll show you how to make the most of your big chance, prepare for each event, and put together a schedule for success. Read on to find out everything you need… 2 Open Day Guide 2017 – MHSCareers Resource Centre Here’s what you’ll find in this Guide (Everything you need to know to plan for the season) Page 4 - Why do I need to go?
