Distance Education
Dear students, some of you have received your new Student ID cards, and may have found that they contain the Travel concession logo. Please note that students enrolled into external degrees are not eligible for travel concessions, and if caught face fines of up to $550.
Distance Education Units
The responsibilities of the Centre include the organisation and distribution of the various forms of teaching materials (including CD Rom) to students on a weekly basis, the electronic registration, receipt, and return of all distance education assignments, and the production of the schedule of on-campus sessions as well as field trips for distance education units. Another special interest of the Centre is also the delivery of independent learning units as an improved method of teaching, in which distance-teaching techniques can be combined with regular face-to-face contact to provide a more flexible 'Multi Modal 'attendance pattern.
Student Support
Distance education students are encouraged to contact the Centre's Manager of Distance Education Student Services to discuss problems related to study, contact with lecturers or any other difficulties which affect students with reduced access to the functions of the University.
