Anybody doing this unit right now/ has already done it
have any information/tips for the in person MATLAB test in week 5?

I got such a bad grade for a reflective assignment that I thought was quite straight forward I was so shocked, I’ve never received a grade that low (53%). I thought that I followed all the criteria as the word count was very low (30 words for some questions) and I included the references they suggested. I don’t think I did that poorly that the grade was warranted, I get maybe like 70%, 60% but 50? 😭 that’s like I didn’t try at all when I think I did do what was asked. Yes I think I could’ve been more specific in some answers looking back now but only really for one 30 word question. I don’t think the grade matches though. In the past I’ve done reflective assessments that potentially has room for improvement but still got at least above 70%. I guess it’s also like up to my own interpretation because it’s my own experience? Idk I’m considering at least asking why it was so low and where the marks were lost. It’s upsetting because I’m not one to receive low grades and with it being an online unit I guess there’s not as much direction regarding what they’re looking for in assignments.

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m an advertising student currently doing some research for a university project about how tradies choose work equipment and what makes advertising actually stand out to them.

If you’re a tradie or apprentice and have 3 minutes, I’d really appreciate you filling out my anonymous survey. Your responses will genuinely help us with our research.

Thanks so much! 🙏

Hey everyone! I’m a Fashion Design student at RMIT currently putting together a short fashion film and I’m looking for creatives who’d love to collaborate and have something cool to add to their portfolio/showreel.

I’m currently looking for:
💡 Gaffer / Lighting
🎧 Sound Designer / Music Producer
🎹 Composer / Musicians — especially piano + violin, dark/creepy vibes
🎬 Editor
📸 BTS Photographer
🕺 Choreographer
🎥 Anyone else interested in film production!

Production is planned for late September / early October in Melbourne. We’re hoping to take the finished film around the film competition circuit.

This is a collaboration/student project, so there isn’t a large budget, but everyone involved will receive credit, footage for their portfolio/showreel, and free food on the production day.
If you’re interested or want more info, DM me on Instagram: @melissa_fehring 📩
Would love to hear from anyone interested!

Hi

Just wanted to know more about these units COS10025 Technology in an Indigenous Context Project and ICT20025 ICT Design Project.

Has anyone done this unit?

Thanks

I didn’t have any brekkie this morning bc I was in a rush to my early class.
I can’t justify spending much money on lunch, so I was walking to the park in a bad mood, when I happened upon a sign offering $6 toasties and cheap coffee.

The owner seemed a bit upset that he didn’t have many customers today / recently, perhaps due to the cafe being kinda hidden in the TD building (I’ve never been around here)

So go grab a sandwich or a coffee, cheaper eats than most places around and the toastie I got was exactly what I needed. Support an upcoming business and the lovely folks running it :)

Is anyone going to do this degree in swinburn or any other kind of in 2027 March intake please let me know I would love to connect

Hey so I am currently in the diploma of IT and last semester I failed one unit that I am currently repeating this semester. Ideally I was supposed to have passed that and have been enrolled for the bachelors course this semester but now the only option I have is to complete the first semester of year 2 online during November because I don’t want to delay my completion ig. The subjects are going to have to be mixed up because the first semester subjects aren’t offered during this period but I was just hoping for any tips from anyone that may have any experience the course or Swinburne online. I’d really appreciate anything that might help!😭

I'm a spm 2026 candidate and I'm planning to go to Swinburne sarawak next year for foundations in IT and after that continue a data science bachelor's.

Here are my questions

Are the classes there generally laid back?

How difficult are the coursework

How are the lectures schedules

Hi guys,
I’m not sure if there are many psychology students here. But I wanna ask if the tutorials are mandatory to go to for this class? The first day I went the tutor did say that it wasn’t mandatory to come to class but again, i’m not sure if anything has changed.

Also….. I haven’t went to that class since the first week so I’m scared to go back. 😭😭

Please help out 🙏

Hi everyone, I’m a Year 12 student in Melbourne and I’m trying to figure out what I should study after Year 12. I’d really appreciate advice from current students and graduates.

I’m doing VCE 3/4 Methods, Physics, Media, Music and EAL. I’m not planning to study English, Media or Music at university. At the moment, I’m most interested in areas related to computer science, IT, software engineering, AI and technology, but I’m honestly quite open-minded. I don’t have one specific passion yet, and I tend to become interested in most things once I start learning about them.

One of my biggest priorities is having a strong job market, good income and opportunities for career progression. I’d like to study something where I can keep developing my skills and potentially move into more advanced or specialised roles over time. Ideally, I’d also like to work in technology and eventually start my own company/business. Helping people or improving lives through technology would be a bonus as well.

The problem is that I don’t really understand how university works yet; things like degrees vs majors, specialisations, double degrees, choosing subjects, internships, etc. So I’d really appreciate any advice on things I should be considering now.

I’d especially appreciate hearing about your experience at Swinburne, including what you think this university does well/poorly for tech students, internships, industry connections, workload, and employment after graduation.

Thanks!

Hey legends,

I’m looking at doing a GDPA online and wanting some feedback on people’s experiences of this course at Swinburne

Thankyou in advance

I’m a first year student in my second semester, and compared to last semester, the parking just seems absolutely hectic. Cars blocking each other in just for a park. Is this normal? It’s incredibly frustrating and it is constantly making me late for class / missing class entirely. I thought it would calm down after the first 2 weeks but it feels it may have gotten even worse

I’m currently a firstyear at a different university which I hate. The commute is unmanageable, their student support is hopeless and the disorganisation by the teachers and faculty have directly affected my individual studies.

I’ve decided an online course is best for me (with in-person placements) and after 2 consultations with Swinburne Online it sounds pretty good, but I’m skeptical (it sounds a little too good to be true).

Do any online education students have some advice for me? Thank you!!

Can someone please tell me how am supposed to study for this subject do i need to focus more on understanding the lectures and the labs i feel like im only copying what’s in the pdf how am I supposed to study for it or what to focus on also the first assignments how do i prepare for it what should i study for it PLEASEE help im so lost

Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone here is studying this unit at Swinburne at the moment or has studied it before. I want to switch to it this semester but ofc am unsure about what the timetable looks like and how hard it is.

Thank you! :)))
