Advanced Plankton Methods is a unit within the Marine Biology specialisation of the Master of Antarctic Science Course (S7Z). This unit forms a foundation for quantitative research methods and technology used in studying marine plankton physiology, ecology, and biogeochemistry. This unit provides an introduction to some of the most relevant approaches for quantifying/characterising marine...

This unit builds students’ grasp of disciplinary methods and knowledge through focusing on a special topic. Working in cognate discipline clusters on special topics, students will undertake a program of guided reading and discussion led by an academic expert. ...

This unit equips students with the skills to undertake scientific investigations essential to agricultural and food research. The unit follows a logical progression from understanding the key principles of scientific methodology to crafting a well-defined research hypothesis. Students then explore these hypotheses using experiments relevant to agriculture and the selection of quantitative...

This unit provides an overview of the major Tasmanian animal production systems and how they fit within the broader Australian and worldwide contexts. Students use systems thinking to explore the variety of strategies that growers use meet their production targets and explore the impact of grower management decisions along the value chain. These include decisions around production intensification,...

This unit covers the theoretical, technical and ethical use of molecular biology to investigate aquatic systems. Students learn the theory, techniques and practice of molecular biology and its application in fields of aquaculture and fisheries, and aquatic biology and ecology. Students gain detailed knowledge of the structure and function of DNA/RNA and proteins, and the methods by which these...

Bachelor of Architecture & Built Environments Architecture Studio units focus on the development and refinement of conceptual, analytical and technical skills through applied problem-based learning in a diverse range of real-world contexts. In first year, Studios focus on establishing foundational design knowledge and competencies. Architecture Studio: Place focuses on the development of...

Bachelor of Architecture & Built Environments Architecture Studio units focus on the development and refinement of conceptual, analytical and technical skills through applied problem-based learning in a diverse range of real-world contexts. In first year, Studios focus on establishing foundational design knowledge and competencies. This unit is part of a suite of four units in the degree core of B...

This unit examines the purpose and structure of assessment and reporting within a range of educational settings, including schools and VET. You will begin by reviewing a range of assessment types, including informal and formal, diagnostic, formative and summative, and their integration into the learning environment. You will develop an understanding of the feedback process, and develop strategies...
