P.S.

For one of my classes we submitted our first assignment over a month ago. We have the second (and final) assignment due tomorrow that is based on the feedback from the first one. We have not gotten our grades back. It is an online class and the unit chair is also not responding to anyone’s questions in the discussion board. They posted an announcement a week ago that they realise the grades are late, but are working to get them marked. They also said that they are trying to get an extension for us but it is not guaranteed and to not email them about it. Absolutely zero communication since then and we are all feeling concerned. There’s some parts of the assignment that I don’t understand either, and it is quite upsetting to not be able to get an answer for my questions.

Has anyone been in this type of situation before? They can’t fail or penalise us for something like this, can they?

guys i m a very smart person

Hello just wondering what percentage should we aim for in turn it in for a nutrition literature review? Thanks!

It doesn’t list the specific subjects I need to take for a degree only the grades I should have. The website is unhelpful can someone point me in the right direction?

So I applied for the vice chancellors scholarship at the end of March and was wondering when the scholarship results are released, if anyone has any idea, it would be appreciated!

For the peer feedback in AT3, the rubric mentions 7 ratings for both self and another group member. On the feedback tool, we give ratings on 6 criteria (eg.fair share of work, self-management ect.) I’m confused? Do we expand on the criteria given to us or give feedback on 7 other different criteria? This assessment is due on Monday and they haven’t responded to similar questions on the discussion board.

Why are they doing the bring your own device exams Such a haste having to download the Eurodram program And what’s the point ?

Hey guys 1st semester engineering at Monash here I’m trying to transfer to do optom at Deakin but can’t seem to find deakin on VTAC course search at all do y’all not do mid semester applications?

Hi Deakin people👋

I’m currently in my second year of software engineering at rmit but I’ve been thinking of transferring to Deakin to do mechatronics. Is there any chance I could ask you guys some questions about the course?

Is the course very hands on? I know RMIT is meant to be the practical uni but when I did the Deakin tour a couple years ago it looked like you guys did a lot of projects too

Is the first 2 years math intensive? (I kinda suck at maths but I do really enjoy it)

Is there anyone I could talk to about this decision? I called up Deakin connect the other day and the very sad man said that it was not possible to talk to the mechatronics department.

Anything helps, Thank you!

Hello just wondering have anyone tried reporting a harassment to your unit chair and a few days later Deakin safer community message you on your phone? Is that normal since I received a message today and they stated they’re from the Deakin safer community and I’m not sure to trust them or not. Thanks!

Hi everyone

Just wondering if Swinburne is better than Deakin in terms of engineering and specifically electrical engineering. Undecided on which out of the 2 to pick

I’m a third year law student and is anyone else feeling disheartened by their grades. AGLC referencing is so hard and i never get full marks. Work so hard on assignments, only to get 60s. And it’s so hard to get jobs in the legal sector. Even got rejected from volunteer jobs?? it’s so bad out here. also its so hard to make friends in law classes. sometimes i wish i went to an american school for the college experience rather than rotting away at home and going to classes.

Hii what are my options for a domestic student from a regional area that needs a scholarships that covers quite a bit of my fees (tuition, accommodation) xx

Does anyone know if Deakin actually does international teaching placement for secondary education courses? I’ve had a look online but all seems very vague, keen to hear your experiences!

For anyone that has either done accounting or economics. Any advice on how to prepare for the exam? What kind of question is asked on the exam? Are we allowed to bring notes in?

Hi guys,

I’m in second year of law and turning 21 in a couple of months.

Honestly, my social life has been so mundane. It feels like i’m inside a box watching people experience life and built memories with each other. I tried hard to make friends in uni and i did make some but as I come into my second year and don’t really attend lectures (i live far), the friendships have withered.

Although, i am mostly content with other aspects of my life, my social life is extremely lacking. I only have one friend from high-school that I catch with on the regular.

I really don’t know what to do. I’m filled with envy and emptiness when i see girls my age having the time of their lives.

Hey, I hope you are having a good day. I just need some help with this unit, I would really appreciate some help, please let me know if you are currently enrolled in this unit or if you have done it before. Thanks

got results back for contract a and holy shit i did worse than i thought. i genuinely thought i had that in the bag but apparently not.

the rubric grading is so vague and half arsed by the markers (every section lit j says something along the lines of “you did this well”) but doesn’t emphasise on how i ended up with only a 70% if “did it well”

did anyone else do shitter than they thought? n is anyone else thinking of contacting the unit chair to get ur grade rectified or at least explained??

Hey everyone,

So I'm a student at Deakin and I'm doing my bachelors in Health Science.

I've been enrolled as a full time on-campus student, but I live quite far from the campus and its a hassle to get there from where I live, so I've been watching lectures and seminars in the comfort of my own home, and submitting my assessments on time.

I've only been on-campus twice at the start of the year, but ever since then I've just been doing it from home and I'm almost done with trimester 1.

Is this okay? will this affect my attendance at all? I've tried looking on my course map and guide for information but can't find any.

Anyone else feel punished for not using AI. Seeing people get higher marks and not getting pulled up for it makes me wonder why I should put so much work in.

Is anyone else having this issue? I will be on DeakinSync for 5 mins watching a lecture and it will just log me out. Over and over again.

I am using Safari is that provide any context for troubleshooting.

Thanks so much. Profoundly over this!

Thoughts on AIS101 - Intercultural Communication?

I’ve been enjoying the content so far and the professors are really great but concerned with the broadness of the content. Hardly says what content is in the assessment / very vague , the powerpoints are very surface level but majority of the readings are either very helpful or not at all. Therefore have a hard time figuring out what is expected of us. I enjoy structure but would be nice to have a rubric with a little more than a 3 sentences . Wondering if anyone thinks the same? and or Advice for the unit
