IMPORTANT CHANGE TO ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
For all modules delivered from July 2010 onwards, the following regulations apply in all locations and to all students. The important change to the assessment process (i.e.: different from previous academic years) is highlighted in point (d) below:
a) You must undertake all assessment tasks, which form part of the module (e.g.: submit all coursework assignments by the appropriate deadline and/or attend all presentations/examinations on the appropriate date etc.).
b) If there is a valid reason for you not being able to complete any assessed work, you must either seek an extension from your Student Adviser or submit a claim for mitigation (see www.anglia.ac.uk/mitigation for more information).
c) If you undertake all assessment tasks which form part of the module but you do not pass the module, you will be allowed one further attempt to undertake some or all of the assessment tasks (i.e.: resit) in order to pass the module.
d) If you do not undertake one or more of the required assessment tasks which form part of the module (e.g.: you simply do not attend an examination or do not submit a coursework assignment on time etc.) AND this is not explained by a successful claim for mitigation, you will NOT be allowed any further attempt at assessment in the module and are deemed to have failed the module completely.
All coursework assignments and other forms of assessment must be submitted by the published deadline which is detailed above. It is your responsibility to know when work is due to be submitted – ignorance of the deadline date will not be accepted as a reason for late or non-submission.
All student work which contributes to the eventual outcome of the module (i.e.: if it determines whether you will pass or fail the module and counts towards the mark you achieve for the module) is submitted via the iCentre using the formal submission sheet. Academic staff CANNOT accept work directly from you.
If you decide to submit your work to the iCentre by post, it must arrive by midday on the due date. If you elect to post your work, you do so at your own risk and you must ensure that sufficient time is provided for your work to arrive at the iCentre. Posting your work the day before a deadline, albeit by first class post, is extremely risky and not advised.
Any late work (submitted in person or by post) will NOT be accepted and a mark of zero will be awarded for the assessment task in question.
You are requested to keep a copy of your work.
