Dear Student

As part of this tutorial letter, we wish to inform you that Unisa has implemented a transformation
charter based on five pillars and eight dimensions. In response to this charter, we have also
placed curriculum transformation high on the agenda. For your information, curriculum
transformation includes the following pillars: student-centred scholarship, the pedagogical
renewal of teaching and assessment practices, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and
the infusion of African epistemologies and philosophies. These pillars and their principles will be
integrated at both the programme and module levels, as a phased-in approach. You will notice
the implementation thereof in your modules, and we encourage you to fully embrace these
changes during your studies at Unisa.

1 INTRODUCTION TO THE MODULE

Dear Student,

We are pleased to welcome you to this module and hope that you will find it both interesting and
rewarding. We will do our best to make your study of this module successful. You will be well on
your way to success if you start studying early in the semester and resolve to do the
assignments properly.

You will receive a number of tutorial letters during the year. A tutorial letter is our way of
communicating with you about teaching, learning and assessment.

This tutorial letter contains important information about the scheme of work, resources and
assignments for this module. We urge you to read it carefully and to keep it at hand when
working through the study material, preparing the assignments, preparing for the examination
and addressing questions to your lecturers.

Please read Tutorial Letter 301 in combination with this tutorial letter as it gives you an idea of
generally important information when studying distance education and information within a
particular College.

In this tutorial letter, you will find the assignments and assessment criteria as well as
instructions on the preparation and submission of the assignments. It also provides all the
information you need with regard to the prescribed study material and other resources and how
to obtain them. Please study this information carefully and make sure that you obtain the
prescribed material as soon as possible.

Right from the start we would like to point out that you must read all the tutorial letters you
receive during the semester immediately and carefully, as they always contain important and,
sometimes, urgent information. You will also find useful information of a general nature in
Tutorial Letter 301 and in the booklet Study@Unisa. Having read through these, you should be
well prepared to start.

We trust that you will enjoy this module and wish you all the best!

7 ASSESSMENT
7.1 Assessment criteria
Compulsory assignments for all modules should be submitted by students at set due dates.
Assignments are seen as part of the learning process for this module. As you do the
assignment, study the reading text, consult other resources, discuss the work with fellow
students or tutors or do research, you are actively engaged in learning. The assessment criteria
included in your Tutorial Letter 501 at the end of each study unit will help you to understand
what is required of you when doing your assignment.

7.2 Assignment numbers


7.2.1 Unique assignment numbers
In addition to the general assignment number (e.g. 02), assignments to be completed by means
of a mark-reading sheet (multiple choice questions) or by means of a written assignment must
also have their unique assignment number. The following are the unique assignment numbers
for 2019:

Semester 1 Type Unique number


Assignment 01 Multiple choice 784588
Assignment 02 Multiple choice 801957

Semester 2 Type Unique number


Assignment 01 Multiple choice 737467
Assignment 02 Multiple choice 648746

7.3 Assignment due dates

01/2021 Compulsory – Addendum C 17 August 2021


02/2021 Compulsory – Addendum D 09 September 2021

The receipt of assignments after the due date disrupts our marking programme and the
uncontrolled submission of assignments creates administrative problems. No extension or
requests for extension of assignments will be considered.

7.4 Submission of assignments


Enquiries about assignments (e.g. whether or not the university has received your assignment
or the date on which an assignment was returned to you) must be directed to the assignments
department. This department can be reached by sending an SMS to 43584 or by e-mail at
assign@unisa.ac.za. You might also find information on myUNISA. To gain access to the
myUnisa website, start at the main Unisa website, http://www.unisa.ac.za, and then click on the
‘login to myUnisa link under the myUnisa heading on the screen. This should take you to the
myUnisa website. You can also go there directly by typing http://my.unisa.ac.za.

Assignments should be addressed to:

The Registrar (Assignments)


PO Box 392
UNISA
0003

You may submit written assignments and assignments done on mark-reading sheets either by

• Click on assignments in the menu on the left.
• Click on the assignment number you want to submit.

7.5 Important aspects relating to assignments


There are 4 assignments for this module:

• Assignment 01 is a multiple-choice assignment that is compulsory and contributes 50%


9
FAC1601/101/3/2021

towards your year mark. It is important to note that if you do not submit this
assignment you will not be admitted to the examination;

• Assignment 02 is a multiple-choice assignment that is also compulsory and contributes


50% towards your year mark;

• Assignments 03 and 04 are long question assignments. These assignments must NOT
be submitted to UNISA for marking but forms an important part of your study material and
exam questions will definitely be set on these sections.

Please keep copies of assignments submitted to UNISA through myUnisa or manually as this is
proof that you submitted the assignment.

Assignments constitute an integral part of the tutorial material. Study material on which
assignment 01 is based is given in Addendum A (for students registered for the first semester)
or Addendum C (for students registered for the second semester). Assignments and tutorial
letters must also be studied for examination purposes.

7.6 The examination


For general information and requirements as far as assignments are concerned, see the
brochure mySTUDIES@Unisa, which you received with your study material.

7.6.1 Examination admission

Submission of the first compulsory assignment by its due date will give a student admission to
the examination in the particular module and the mark obtained for that assignment will
contribute towards the final mark for that module. The second assignment is also compulsory
and contributes equally to the final mark.
Please ensure that the compulsory assignments reaches the University before the due date as
late submission of assignment 01 will result in you not being admitted to the
examination.

7.6.2 Year-mark and final examination mark

The year-mark contribution towards the final examination mark is calculated as follows:
50% of the mark obtained for assignment 01
Plus
50% of the mark obtained for assignment 02

If you only submit assignment 01, your year mark will be 50% of the mark obtained for this
assignment. This will then be your year mark out of a possible 100%. If, for example, you
obtain 80% for assignment 01 and 0% for assignment 02, your year mark will be 40%.
According to university policy you require a sub-minimum of 40% in the examination before your
year mark is taken into consideration. In other words, if you do not obtain at least 40% in the
examination, you will automatically fail, and your final mark will be the mark you obtained in the
examination.

10
FAC1601/101/3/2021

A final mark of 50% is required to pass this module. This final mark is calculated as follows:
(10% x of the year mark) + (90% x mark obtained in the examination)
Example:
A B C D
Exam mark
Average of
Year mark contribution Minimum exam
marks for
contribution to required to pass mark required
assignment
final (50% minus to pass
1&2
mark at 10% year mark (C ÷ 0,9)
(Year mark)
contribution)
Student 1 100% 10% 40% 45%
Student 2 70% 7% 43% 48%
Student 3 50% 5% 45% 50%
Student 4 30% 3% 47% 52%
Student 5 20% 2% 48% 53%
Student 6 10% 1% 49% 54%
Student 7 0% 0% 50% 56%

If you obtain between 40% and 49% as a final mark, you will be allowed to write a
supplementary examination. The supplementary examination will be written at the end of the
next semester. This means that if you qualify for a supplementary examination in May/June,
you will write the FAC1601 paper in October/November. Similarly, students who qualify for a
supplementary examination in October/November will write this paper in May/June of the
following year. A student may, however, write only one supplementary examination per
enrolment.

If, for any reason, you transfer your exam period for FAC1601 to a following semester, you need
to submit Assignment 01 and 02 before the due date in the semester for which you originally
registered for the course. The year mark you obtain will then be carried forward to the next
semester because you will not be allowed to submit any assignments in the semester to which
you have changed. By applying to have your semester changed to a following semester, in
effect, you are applying for an aegrotat examination. However, you still need a year mark that
will be taken into account as explained above – hence the need to submit the compulsory
assignments in the semester for which you originally registered.

7.6.3 Examination period

This module is offered in a semester period of 15 weeks. This means that if you are registered
for the first semester, you will write the examination in May/June 2021 and the supplementary
examination will be written in October/November 2021. If you are registered for the second
semester, you will write the examination in October/November 2021 and the supplementary
examination will be written in May/June 2021.
During the semester, the Examination Section will provide you with information regarding the
examination in general, examination venues, examination dates and examination times. This
information can also be obtained from the myUnisa site. Click on Examinations when you are
logged into the site.
