Comments about
the Walkabout environment
The Walkabout staff would like you to give some comments on the Walkabout uLearning Environment by completing a short, online questionnaire. This is to gain feedback on how you went about your learning, using the Walkabout system. This feedback is separate from the normal unit evaluation questionnaire, done for all units at the end of each semester.
Please select "Questionnaire" on the site menu at the top, left of the screen. The questionnaire only takes a few minutes to do. If you have any trouble accessing the questionnaire, please send an email to Janet Fraser, Walkabout Technical Director (janet.fraser@infotech.monash.edu.au). Thank you.
The formal pre-requisite for this unit is FIT1002 Computer programming or FIT9017 Foundations of programming. If you have not completed either of these, you will not be able to enrol through WES. Instead, if you think you would still be able to complete the unit without the formal pre-requisite, collect a waive of pre-requisites form from your local faculty office and then contact the unit lecturer on your campus to ask for permission to take this unit without the formal pre-requisites. It is also useful for students have some basic knowledge of XHTML. Background topics are provided (see menu at left of screen) for students who have forgotten their XHTML.
This unit is offered in the ONLINE DAY mode using the Walkabout u-Learning environment. Students can take the unit completely from this web site. On-campus help is also provided for students to get assistance with their work. Note that this unit is not offered by OCL. OCL students who want to enrol in the unit may, but no extra features are provided for OCL students. In particular, the final exam must be sat at a Monash campus, and there is no email helpdesk.
After you finish uni you will need to go on learning to keep your knowledge and skills up to date. Most of this life long learning will be self motivated learning from a variety of scources, mostly online. Often there will be no formal learning with lectures and tutorials at set times. This Walkabout online unit aims to get you ready for the type of learning you will need to do in the future. Note that, in this unit in particular, you need to take control of your learning and plan your time and workload.
