Deakin's curriculum framework
Deakin's courses are structured to get the best out of students and staff. We structure our teaching and learning to align with graduate learning outcomes. We do this by monitoring and updating courses to always align with industry insight.
Graduate Learning Outcomes
Deakin promises to educate learners for the jobs and skills of the future with courses that are highly personal, engaging and include relevant learning experiences.
Online learning
Students can access study and administrative tools through DeakinSync, and study all or part of their course through Deakin's Cloud Campus.
Assessing and evaluating
Assessing and evaluating is an ongoing practice within subject and program design at Deakin.
Student assessment is related to the real world, and provides evidence of learning achievement. Through the evaluation of teaching, along with support and unit resources, we seek to improve learning and teaching outcomes.
The Deakin Promise in learning, through LIVE the future, is to offer brilliant education where the students are and where they want to go.
