Course Structure and Content: The course is composed of: lectures led by academic staff member or graduate student introducing basic areas of knowledge tasks to be prepared for the next session either individually or as a group which you will be informed of the week before articles to be read before each session according to the attached list of readings oral papers by class members dealing with specific topics/articles of relevance group based discussions. Students will be expected to read key references each week with the aim of addressing various questions or issues raised in class. All class members are expected to participate. Assessment: Students will be assessed internally and externally. All course work must be completed on time and or by prior arrangement with course coordinator. The following assessment will apply for this course: Class preparation and participation (15%) each session Three oral papers (30%) three sessions Essay (25%) due 7 April Final Exam (30%) Examination period 12 June till 25 June Oral Papers: Each participant has to present three papers referring to a selected topic to the class. You can decide the dates and choose the readings within your work group. The papers will mainly refer to the attached list of readings Tasks: Each week you will get a task to prepare either individually or as a group. Such tasks can just refer to the readings by preparing questions or finding answers to questions I pose. But they can also include applications to real life by finding material and information outside the classroom connected with the respective topic we are working on. Your sources can be newspaper articles, films, interviews with people, geographic locations, artistic work or whatever you can think of and observe. You can present them to the class individually or as a group. Be creative in choosing your means to share your material with others. You can use pictures, objects, tapes, slides, food, skits and other means I myself may not have thought of. Please tell me at least one day in advance if you need special equipment for your presentations. At the end of the course I want you to present your own personal projects on culture and cross-cultural psychology to the class, which may or may not be inspired by the previous tasks and your collection of material outside the classroom. This can be a research proposal on what you would like to continue to work on in future times, on what you have learned about your own cultural background, on what you have learned about others’ cultural background, on your experiences settling in a new country, on unique intercultural encounters or on cross-cultural comparisons. Essay: The essay should be approximately 2500 words (following APA style). You can explore a topic of interest to you in greater detail. You should review approximately two empirical articles in addition to any book chapters or theoretical papers that are relevant to the issue you are going to choose. A large source of readings can be found in my office as well as in the Cross-cultural Lab. Final Exam: The final exam will consist of open and closed questions as well as essay questions. It will last for 2 hours. Readings: PSYC433 does not have a required textbook but uses selected readings in conjunction with each lecture. Two reading lists are attached. The first reading list includes the readings we will specifically refer to during our meetings. The second list comprises additional readings which are necessary to look at for your essays, oral papers and exam. Most of the material students will be expected to read is published in journals and to some extent in books. Students will need to read articles listed in the outline of the syllabus each week. You will find these readings in the honour’s room EA502. Some books you may need are put on closed reserve in the library. A large source of additional readings for oral papers as well as essays and other contributions to the class can be found in my office as well as in the Cross-cultural lab EA302 which you are welcome to look through. Please pick up material you are interested in during my office hours on Wednesday from 1pm to 3pm. Set readings will be supplied throughout the course, however students will also be required to conduct their own independent reviews of the literature for assignment purposes. Mandatory Course Requirements Each student must complete three oral presentations, submit an essay and pass the exam and in addition must participate in class discussions and prepare the tasks in order to meet mandatory course requirements. Failure to meet these requirements will result in a failing grade for this course. Policy on Late work / Penalties Failure to give a verbal presentation will result in a zero for that piece of assessment. Written work handed in after the deadline will incur a penalty of a 2.5% deduction (cumulative) for each day late (e.g., work handed in 5 days late will loose 12.5%), except where a medical certificate or some other form of supporting documentation is supplied. Communication of Further Information Most information will be conveyed in class. Important notices (e.g. cancellation of a class) will be posted on the notice board in the Graduate Study Room, EA502. Set office hours are available, however you may wish to communicate via email outside of the office hours set. General University Policies and Statutes Students should familiarise themselves with the University's policies and statutes, particularly those regarding assessment and course of study requirements, and formal academic grievance procedures. Student Conduct and Staff Conduct The Statute on Student Conduct together with the Policy on Staff Conduct ensure that members of the University community are able to work, learn, study and participate in the academic and social aspects of the University's life in an atmosphere of safety and respect. The Statute on Student Conduct contains information on what conduct is prohibited and what steps can be taken if there is a complaint. For queries about complaint procedures under the Statute on Student Conduct, contact the Facilitator and Disputes Advisor. This Statute is available in the Faculty Student Administration Office or on the website at: www.vuw.ac.nz/policy/StudentConduct The policy on Staff Conduct can be found on the VUW website at: www.vuw.ac.nz/policy/StaffConduct Academic Grievances If you have any academic problems with your course you should talk to the tutor or lecturer concerned or, if you are not satisfied with the result of that meeting, see the Head of School or the Associate Dean (Students) of your Faculty. Class representatives are available to assist you with this process. If, after trying the above channels, you are still unsatisfied, formal grievance procedures can be invoked. These are set out in the Academic Grievance Policy which is published on the VUW website: www.vuw.ac.nz/policy/AcademicGrievances Academic Integrity and Plagiarism Academic integrity is about honesty – put simply it means no cheating. All members of the University community are responsible for upholding academic integrity, which means staff and students are expected to behave honestly, fairly and with respect for others at all times. Plagiarism is a form of cheating which undermines academic integrity. Plagiarism is prohibited at Victoria. The University defines plagiarism as follows: Plagiarism is presenting someone else’s work as if it were your own, whether you mean to or not. ‘Someone else’s work’ means anything that is not your own idea, even if it is presented in your own style. It includes material from books, journals or any other printed source, the work of other students or staff, information from the Internet, software programmes and other electronic material, designs and ideas. It also includes the organisation or structuring of any such material. Plagiarism is not worth the risk. Any enrolled student found guilty of plagiarism will be subject to disciplinary procedures under the Statute on Student Conduct (www.vuw.ac.nz/policy/studentconduct) and may be penalised severely. Consequences of being found guilty of plagiarism can include: an oral or written warning suspension from class or university cancellation of your mark for an assessment or a fail grade for the course. Find out more about plagiarism and how to avoid it, on the University’s website at: www.vuw.ac.nz/home/studying/plagiarism.html Students with Disabilities The University has a policy of reasonable accommodation of the needs of students with disabilities. The policy aims to give students with disabilities an equal opportunity with all other students to demonstrate their abilities. If you have a disability, impairment or chronic medical condition (temporary, permanent or recurring) that may impact on your ability to participate, learn and/or achieve in lectures and tutorials or in meeting the course requirements, then please contact the Course Coordinator as early in the course as possible.
