Overview

In Project & Scholarship 3, students prepare their final project output on their clinically relevant research question. The output of this project will be disseminated to their peers, clinicians and academic staff in written and verbal formats. Students will consolidate their established oral and verbal presentation skills and be prepared to justify their project findings in their written and oral assessment pieces. This unit is the third and final unit comprising of the project component of student's Master's by course work degree.

Learning Outcomes

On successful completion of this unit, students will be able to:

  1. Critically reflect on the process of completing a clinical practice-based research project
  2. Synthesise and interpret data from the investigation to create project output;
  3. Debate findings and conclusions from major project to peers and academic staff; and
  4. Collaborate effectively to produce and present oral and/or written work that contextualises new knowledge for the intended audience.

Assessment

For Melbourne campuses

The first assessment task will be an opportunity for students to individually reflect on their research project from Project and Scholarship 1 (HMO7007) to now. The later written report and final presentation will assess the students’ ability to synthesise and interpret data and present findings and conclusions of their project in a polished written form. In the project presentation, students are assessed on their ability to communicate the new knowledge from their projects in a verbal format. The presentation will consist of both group and individually assessed components to help ensure assessment of each student’s achievement of learning outcomes.
