Attendance

Regular attendance at lectures and tutorials is required for a pass in this course. Submission of written work alone is not enough, and will not be treated as adequate for a pass. Tutors will keep records of tutorial attendance, and if you are unable to attend tutorials it is your responsibility to keep your tutor informed: tutors cannot be expected to chase up students who do not attend classes. In the case of regular or prolonged absences, your tutor may ask you to complete further work in lieu.
