3.10 Special considerationInformation about special consideration that may be granted for science units is available athttp://policy.monash.edu/policy-bank/academic/education/assessment/special-consideration-policy.html4. Unit Resources4.1 Required resourcesDetailed lecture notes that also include all unit information and lab class exercises and solutionswill be made available through the bookshop. The PDF files will also be available on the unitweb site.4.2 Recommended resourcesThe only recommended text book is Getting Started with MATLAB 7 by Rudra Pratap, OxfordUni Press. The book is only intended as a guide to learning MATLAB. It will be of little usefor the mathematical side of this unit. For that purpose you will need the printed lecture notes(also available as PDF files on the unit website).4.3 Unit websiteUnit information, lecture notes, assignments, exercises, all handouts and notices will be availableon the web through Moodle (available through http://my.monash.edu.au).4.4 Getting helpI will be very happy to answer questions and to help you outside the contact hours allocated tothis unit, and you should approach me when you need help. However, do not expect to alwaysfind me in my office as I have many other lecturing, administrative and research responsibilities.Check my office door or the website for my consultation hours. Outside these times, it is highlyrecommended that you plan your consultation; contact me preferably by e-mail to agree to amutually convenient time.5. Feedback5.1 Our feedback to youWe will provide feedback in a number of ways, including16-Feb-2014 6
Assignments. Always look through the marked assignments, and read the commentsgiven by your tutor either written on the assignment itself or in class to the wholegroup. Always ask if there is something that it is not clear to you. All topicsincluded in the assignments will be covered in the final exam, therefore it is importantthat if you lost marks in a particular question that you find out what youdid wrong to avoid making the same mistake again in the exam!Tutorials. Tutorials are the best place to get feedback from both the tutor and yourpeers. Take the weekly problem sets seriously, and clarify anything that you areunsure about. Many questions included in the problem sets are from previousexams and they will give you an idea of what will be included in your exam.Consultation outside scheduled classes. You can always receive one-on-one helpand feedback from your tutor or with me (see the unit web site for contact details).Sample exam. Towards the end of the semester I will put on Moodle a sample examwith solutions. Work through the exam, and check through the solutions only onceyou finished your attempt.5.2 Your Feedback to usMonash is committed to excellence in education and regularly seeks feedback from students,employers and staff. One of the key formal ways students have to provide feedback is through theStudent Evaluation of Teaching and Units (SETU) survey. The Universitys student evaluationpolicy requires that every unit is evaluated each year. Students are strongly encouraged tocomplete the surveys. The feedback is anonymous and provides the Faculty with evidence ofaspects that students are satisfied and areas for improvement.For more information on Monash’s educational strategy, see:http://monash.edu.au/about/monash-directions/and on student evaluations, see:http://policy.monash.edu/policy-bank/academic/education/quality/student-evaluation-policy.html5.3 Previous Student Evaluations of this unitIf you wish to view how previous students rated this unit, please go tohttps://emuapps.monash.edu.au/unitevaluations/index.jsp16-Feb-2014 7
