Overview
A contributing factor to success in a higher education context relates to the understanding and use of communication skills specific to academia. This introductory unit provides a fundamental understanding of the academic communication genre and is designed to introduce you to essential academic language and literacy skills needed to support your learning in undergraduate university programs. As part of this, you will also begin to explore the ethical and responsible use of Generative AI tools to support academic communication and learning.
The unit is studied concurrently with discipline specific units related to the undergraduate degree in your chosen field of study. This unit supports your transition into university by building the academic communication skills necessary for success across all areas of study.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this unit you will be able to:
- Read and interpret academic texts to identify key arguments and build evidence-based arguments.
- Plan and produce academic texts with the required structure and language features appropriate to audience, purpose and context.
- Demonstrate effective teamwork and interpersonal communication skills.Relates to: Diploma Business Capabilities: TS (4.2)
- Develop reflective thinking skills to evaluate and adapt academic practices.
- Demonstrate ethical and responsible use of Generative AI tools.
Content
Major topics covered in this unit include:
- Notetaking
- Searching for academic sources
-
Decoding and comprehending academic texts
-
Critical thinking and argument
- Academic language features
-
Ethical and responsible use of Generative AI
- Collaborating with peers
-
Developing feedback strategies
-
Critical reflection
-
Academic honesty, citation and referencing
Learning Approaches
This unit encourages you to be an active learner by engaging you in a variety of learning opportunities such as lectures, workshops and tutorials. You will also engage with weekly eContent on Canvas to support your learning. After classes, you are expected to continue engaging with unit resources to consolidate your understanding, with one-on-one support available from the teaching team as needed.
Within the unit there is a supportive learning environment where you are encouraged to take risks with your academic language production. You will be challenged by regular tasks that incrementally build your academic literacy and language knowledge and skills. In this process, you will learn to use reflective practice to improve your awareness around seeking and using feedback. The knowledge and skills you gain in this unit will also apply to your discipline units.
The unit adopts an approach which relies on your engagement in activities prior to and after classes. An important aspect of this unit are weekly Study Advantage and Language Lab sessions. These sessions are designed to meet your needs as students new to QUT and the Australian educational landscape, additionally, they allow you to develop your academic language skills. This unit values the knowledge you bring with you and as such, there is an emphasis on sharing and building on this knowledge while understanding how to work with your peers.
Feedback on Learning and Assessment
Students will receive feedback in various forms throughout the semester which may include:
- Informal: worked examples, such as verbal feedback in class, personal consultation
- Formal: in writing, such as checklists, rubrics, written commentary
- Direct: to individual students, either in written form or in consultation
- Indirect: to the whole class
Assessment
Overview
Formative assessment will occur to give you an opportunity to gauge your own progress and for tutors to provide feedback on your learning. Summative assessment tasks will occur at points throughout the unit so you can better pace your workload. This will also allow for scaffolded learning where your academic literacy skills are slowly built though incremental tasks at greater levels of complexity. The assessment tasks and associated feedback will be learning opportunities and will provide support for you to complete the unit successfully. There will be a focus throughout the unit on drafting and redrafting your work based on feedback to support your learning and skill development. In Academic Communication 1, there is emphasis on learning through dialogue and teamwork. This is assessed through both formative and summative methods on an ongoing basis.
Assessment in this unit is designed around academic skills necessary for successful participation in undergraduate university programs. They are authentic and relevant tasks that will support you in your future studies in your chosen discipline area.
