Assessment Overview
Assessment Grading
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of 'pass' in order to pass the unit. If any 'pass/fail' tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully ('pass' grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the 'assessment task' section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%). Consult the University's Grades and Results Policy for more details of interim results and final grades.

Feedback from SUTE comments
Weekly quizzes that required typing an answer were sometimes too picky about how the answer needed to be typed. Though these quizzes are additional learning activities and not assessed, it can be demoralizing for questions answered correctly to be marked incorrect.
Review quiz question response options to ensure answer parameters are appropriate.
- Demonstrate competency in foundational digital video and audio editing and production skills
- Manage workflow at an industry standard throughout the video and audio production process
