Teaching approach This unit will be taught as a two-hour lecture and a one-hour tutorial each week for 12 weeks. You are expected to attend all lectures and tutorials. The lectures will not cover every aspect of each topic listed in the Unit Schedule as you are BFC3140 Corporate finance 2 - Semester 1 (S1-01) - 2017 6 The lectures will not cover every aspect of each topic listed in the Unit Schedule as you are expected to acquire a comprehensive understanding by undertaking the prescribed and recommended reading and by completing the week-by-week tutorial activities and other in- semester assessment tasks. The tutorials provide an opportunity for you and your peers to discuss the current topic(s) and to compare your completed assessment tasks with other students' work and/or model answers. While tutorials provide an opportunity for you to demonstrate the application of your knowledge and skills there is also an opportunity for you to ask the tutor to clarify your understanding of the topics and associated concepts covered to date. In general you are expected to spend two to three hours of self-directed study for each hour in class. Some of this time should be devoted to discussions with other students. The benefit of such discussions will be enhanced if you have completed relevant prescribed and recommended reading and/or started or completed the current assessment task(s). The prescribed and recommended readings are listed in this guide and on the unit's Moodle site. The Moodle site provides access to relevant material including past examination papers and model answers. These resources will enable you to develop a mastery of the topics covered by the unit. To ensure a high probability of successfully completing this unit, you need to manage your time and studies in a systematic way. At a minimum this should involve: ●reading prescribed and selected recommended material prior to attending lectures; ●completing week-by-week tutorial activities tasks prior to attending tutorials; ●attempting relevant questions from past final examination papers and in-semester tests; ●discussions with past and present students; and ●revision of the semester's work during the SWOT-Vac and prior to the final examination.

Second marking Where an assessment task is given a fail grade by an examiner, that piece of work will be marked again by a second examiner who will independently evaluate the work, and consult with the first marker. No student will be awarded a fail grade for an assessment task or unit without a second examiner confirming the result. Note: Exceptions to this are individual pieces of assessment contributing 10% or less of the final mark, unless the total of such pieces exceeds 30% of the final mark. Return of final marks Faculty policy states that 'the final mark that a student receives for a unit will be determined by the Board of Examiners taking into account all aspects of assessment'. The final mark for this unit will be released by the Board of Examiners on the date nominated in the Faculty Calendar. Student results will be accessible through the my.monash portal. Exam viewing Feedback on student performance in examinations and other end-of-semester assessment is required. The feedback should be in accordance with the University's procedures on Unit Assessment.
