1. WELCOME

We wish to welcome you to the Centre for Open and Lifelong Learning (COLL) at the Namibia University of

Science and Technology (NUST). We are at your service and will gladly assist you in your studies.

Distance education is a unique method of instruction and study. It is unique in the sense that the main medium

of instruction is the written word and that you are therefore enabled to study at home. A further advantage

is that, as a working adult student, you can continually apply theoretical knowledge to your work situation.

This system of instruction is based on the principle of reciprocal communication between you and your tutor.

This is made possible because the instructional material (textbooks, printed study guides, tutorial letters, CD,

DVD, eCourse Content or eTutorial) prescribed and/or supplied to you, have to be studied. Studying through

distance education therefore requires thorough planning and continuous commitment to your studies.

Assignments based on your instructional material must be completed regularly and submitted before or on

the due date stipulated in this Manual. Weekend tutorials are also organised at the Main Campus and Regional

Centres from time to time. Please liaise with your Coordinators: Academic Support or your Regional

Coordinator for a timetable in this regard. Radio-tutorials, CDs, DVDs, eCourse Content and eTutorials are the

latest additions to support you in your studies. Radio Tutorials are broadcast on National Radio to supplement

print-based instructional material and face-to-face sessions with 10 minute radio programmes.

COLL is aware of the difficult circumstances under which many of you have to study and is therefore eager to provide assistance to enable you to derive full benefit from your studies. If there is anything you do not understand, or which needs to be explained, you should not hesitate to seek advice from your Tutors, Coordinators and Student Support Officers. You may contact them by phone, email, and letter or by a personal visit arranged beforehand. Tutors, Coordinators and Student Support Officers are always willing to help.

The contact details for your Coordinators and Student Support Officers are available in this Manual, your Yearbook, Distance Education (DE) Pocket Guide and on COLL’s website:

http://www.nust.na/?q=centres/coll/about-coll The contact details for your tutor are included in the DE Pocket Guide and will be issued to you upon registration. The final updated Tutor list will also be uploaded on the COLL Website:

http://www.nust.na/?q=centres/coll/about-coll

4. COMPILING YOUR STUDY PROGRAMME After having read the tutorial letter, you should read your instructional material to get an overall impression of the nature and scope of the course(s) you are registered for. Once you have done this, you must compile a study programme for the semester/year. Determine the dates for the submission of assignments, decide how much time you can allow for each course and how you are going to divide your time between working on assignments, reading of recommended books, and studying the instructional material. If you do not do this, you might not be able to get through your work or be less successful than if you had planned your work. Study






11

the contents of the tutorial letter and the instructional material before you consult the prescribed and recommended text book(s).

5. ASSIGNMENTS General remarks Experience has shown that there is a positive correlation between regular submission of assignments and

success in examinations. Assignments establish tutor-student interaction. You will realise that this is essential

in distance education tuition. The tutors spare no effort in maintaining this contact by means of individual

comments on each of your assignments. Thus, the necessity and value of submitting regular work can hardly

be over emphasised. The assignments, which must be submitted for comments enable you to:

work systematically through representative parts of the syllabus;

obtain the necessary experience in answering questions;

receive guidance in drawing up answers with regards to the content;

get to know the standard we expect of you; and

establish whether you are working along the right lines.

Your assignments are, after all, the only concrete standard by which the quality of your work can be assessed

prior to the examinations.

NB Your attention is drawn to the fact that, apart from the regulations hereunder, you should study the

contents of your tutorial letters and your COLL Yearbook, which contain important information and

regulations regarding technical requirements and rules on submission of assignments.

Enquiries about assignments (whether they were received by COLL, what mark was awarded, when they were

returned to you, etc.) should be addressed to your Student Support Officers at the following contact details:

+264 61

207 2259 [email protected] 207 2071 [email protected] 207 2802 [email protected] 207 2670 [email protected] 207 2558 [email protected] 207 2757 [email protected]

NB: Please read your DE Pocket Guide to know which Student Support Officer you should contact for the courses you are registered.





12

Rules for students on submission of assessments

Students are required to qualify for examination admission on the basis of satisfactory answers and

performance in assessments. Particulars of the contribution of the various assessment marks towards the

final mark of a particular course and the minimum requirements for examination admission appear in the

tutorial letter.

(a) Keep to the due dates. Assignments that are submitted after the due date will be returned unmarked.

It remains your responsibility to see to it that your assignment reaches COLL in time.

(b) Medical and humanitarian reasons are the only reasons accepted for the late submission of assignments.

Late submission of assignments will only be approved until 7 days (including public holidays and

weekends) after the due date of an assignment. Valid documentary proof must be attached as part of

the assignment before any late submission will be considered. Late submission without valid

documentary proof attached to the assignment will be returned unmarked and may not be

resubmitted for marking.

Travelling and attendance of workshops, job related activities and conferences may not be used as an

excuse for the late submission of assignments. Please note that a police declaration may not be used

as an excuse for the late submission of assignments.

Death Certificates will serve as valid documentary proof in case of immediate family as per the Labour

Act, i.e. “family” means a –

o child;

o spouse;

o parent/grandparent;

o brother/sister; or

o father/mother-in-law of the student.

Students have to submit sufficient documentary evidence in addition to the Death Certificate to

qualify for the approval of late submission of assignments.

(c) Distance education students, who commit themselves to studies at the Namibia University of Science

and Technology, will be expected to attend compulsory vacation school tutorials and tests as set down

for the relevant courses. No provision is made for students who engage in other commitments during

this period, which could interfere with their studies, e.g. job-related commitments (local and abroad),

out-of-town work, etc. Reference to compulsory attendance of vacation school tutorials and tests shall

be stipulated in the tutorial letter of the relevant courses. Distance Education students will have the

opportunity to write a 2nd opportunity/make-up test on the pre-determined dates similar to full-time

and part-time students if they were unable to write or fail the scheduled tests as set out in the

Information Manual for Distance Education Students, the DE Pocket Guide and in the Tutorial Letter.

There will be no provision made to any student if he/she failed to write the 2nd opportunity/make up

IMPORTANT

13

test.

(d) Assignments already submitted but not passed/returned unmarked may not be resubmitted.

(e) The formal requirements for essays as set out in tutorial letters must be strictly adhered to. If your

assignment does not comply with these requirements, you might lose marks.

(f) Assignments based on wrong instructional material and tutorial letters will not be accepted for

marking.

(g) Remember to give the assignment the same number as the one appearing in the tutorial letter. For

example, if you do assignment 02, you should number “02” and not “01”. DO NOT enclose more than

one assignment in the same assignment book/ CD/ document sent as an attachment via email.

(h) Indicate your student number, course name and course code, e.g. Introduction to Mathematics,

ITM111S, and the assignment number on the assignment cover page before submission of an

assignment.

(i) Ensure that all information as requested on the assignment cover is completed and correct. Incorrect

or incomplete information will prevent it from being accepted for marking. This also applies to

submitted CD’s. All information must be on the CD itself.

(j) Students’ marked assignments will be scanned and mailed to them on their generic email address that

they receive upon registration. No tutor-marked assignment will be posted in window envelopes to

students anymore.

(k) Students may send assignments via e-mail. Students should download the Electronic Assignment Book

available in MS Word format from http://www.nust.na/centres/coll/coll.php_assbook.doc to complete

assignments. Ensure that all information as requested on the assignment cover is completed and correct.

Incorrect or incomplete information will prevent it from being accepted for marking. After completion

of the assignment, email the Electronic Assignment Book as an attachment to [email protected]

(l) Completed assignments must never be emailed/mailed/submitted to the relevant Tutor, Student

Support Officer or the Store and Dispatch Officer.

(m) Always supply sufficient stamps when posting your assignments. Students who use express post for

mailing their assignments must pay the costs attached to this service themselves. The Namibia

University of Science and Technology will not pay penalties for assignments with insufficient postage.

Such assignments will be returned unmarked to the students. Posted/couriered assignments received

after the due date of the assignment will be returned unmarked.

(n) Warning: Any loose pages increase the possibility for loosing assignment marks.

(o) Students living in the vicinity of Windhoek and who prefer to submit their assignments personally must

hand them in at the COLL assignment box. Students living in the vicinity of Regional Centres, should

preferably submit their assignments at these Centres.

(p) Students are encouraged to form study groups to discuss their studies, but identical assignments by

http://www.nust.na/centres/coll/coll.php_assbook.doc

14

different members of a study group are not acceptable. Copying assignments constitutes a transgression

of the Student Regulations of the Namibia University of Science and Technology. Students found guilty

of copying assignments will be awarded 0% for such an assignment.

(q) Upon submission of assignments, students have to acknowledge by means of complete referencing,

all sources used and/or quoted. Students found guilty of plagiarism will be penalised and may be

awarded 0%

(r) A student, who has strong reasons to believe that an assignment mark may be incorrect, may apply that

such mark be re-checked, regardless of the mark obtained. An application for a re-check must be

directed to the Director: COLL on or before the last working day in May for the examinations taking place

in the June session and on or before the last working day in Oct for the examinations taking place in the

November session. Applications must be accompanied by a full motivation explaining why a re-check is

sought. Such a re-check shall not necessarily lead to a re-mark of the assignment, unless so determined

by the Tutor conducting the re-check. Applications for re-check based on requests to be condoned for

admission to the examination will not be considered.

(s) No comments or assignments/test results will be announced by telephone.

Completion of the assignment cover

NB: Make sure that you read the instructions on the assignment cover carefully before completing it. Make

sure that you complete the cover correctly and please use Black ink only.

Ensure that all information as requested on the assignment cover are completed and correct. Incorrect and

incomplete information will prevent YOUR ASSIGNMENT FROM BEING MARKED!

Please make sure that the following important information appears on the COVER of your assignment:

6. VACATION SCHOOLS, WEEKEND TUTORIALS AND RADIO TUTORIALS

During the year, two vacation schools will be offered in Windhoek at the NUST Campus. These vacation schools

will take place during March/April and August. Attending vacation schools and weekend classes is optional,

but students are strongly advised to make use of this support service. It is a valuable opportunity to make

personal contact with Tutors and fellow students, and to discuss problems. No accommodation and transport

will be provided. You need to make your own arrangements in this regard.

7. STUDY VIA eLEARNING

What is eLearning?

ELearning is learning that occurs via the internet. At the Namibia University of Science and

Technology (NUST), all eTutoring and eLearning occurs via the institution’s Learning Management

System, Moodle. ELearning is offered as a 4th mode of study along with full-time, part-time and

traditional distance education at NUST.

What is the difference between studying through the kind of distance education I do now and that

of eLearning?

When you study via eLearning you:

are able to access your course material directly from the course site are guided through the course on a week-by-week basis have a dedicated tutor who will support you online during the duration of the course are able to interact regularly with your tutor and fellow students can submit assignments via the learning site can get feedback to questions, tasks and assignments online have a much more interactive learning process than if you studied by the traditional distance education mode the ratio of students to tutor will be much lower and hence you will have more personalised

and regular contact with your tutor

reading your weekly tutor updates, contributing to online tasks and interacting with fellow students

and the tutor. You will need extra time for doing assignments and studying for tests and

examinations.

18

What else will I need to know about eLearning before I register for this mode of study?

19

9. APPLICATION FOR AND USE OF LIBRARY BOOKS

The University’s library services are available free of charge to all registered students. Membership of the library is subject to the Library Regulations. The library will lend recommended books and other supplementary reading materials to students. Prescribed textbooks must, however, be bought by the student, and will NOT be provided by the library. A student who does not return library material on the due date will not be allowed admission to the examinations, to re-register, and will not receive his/her examination results before the outstanding library material has been returned to NUST. Limited stock of library books are available at the Regional Centres. The student must also consult his/her nearest Regional Centre in this regard.

The University’s Library has a number of very useful resources and services, which are accessible through the website: http://www.nust.na/?q=library A Resource Guide on all the various library services available to distance education students will be issued upon registration.

Online examination papers: Past examination papers are available from the Library’s web page, but only at the main campus in Windhoek. They are also accessible via CD-ROM from the Regional Centres and via email from the Subject Librarians [email protected]. Subject Librarians will only send past papers to distance education students who have supplied their student number.

When you apply by post to the Librarian for books, you should furnish full particulars as indicated in

your tutorial letter. If you fail to do this, the library personnel have to spend an unnecessary amount of time in tracing the relevant books. We urgently appeal to all students to assist the library personnel in this regard – it is to your own advantage.

You must cultivate the habit of using books properly. Consult the table of contents as well as the index

to ascertain which pages or chapters are relevant to your topic.

Should you notice that one book can be used for more than one assignment, and you wish to do all the assignments concerned, please compile all your notes at the same time. This will eliminate the trouble of borrowing the book a second time.

Please do not merge parts (whether in original or translated form) of books with your own work. Use

the proper reference technique.

Consult as many sources as possible for each assignment, including books not mentioned.

10. REGULATIONS FOR ADMISSION TO THE EXAMINATIONS

NOTE: Your attention is drawn to the fact that, apart from the regulations hereunder, you should study the

contents of your tutorial letters and your NUST Yearbook 1, which contain important information and

regulations about admission to the examination.

In order to be admitted to the examination for a course, a student must obtain a semester/year mark of at least 40%.

In order to pass a course, a student has to comply with the following criteria:

o A subminimum of 40% must be achieved in cases where the examination comprises of only

one paper, and 35% each in cases where the examination consists of two or more papers, provided that the combined paper subminimum is 40%;

http://www.nust.na/?q=library

20

o A final mark (calculated from semester/year mark and examination mark with the prescribed

weighting ratio) of 50% has to be obtained in the course;

o Unless stated otherwise in the tutorial letter or the COLL Yearbook, the weighting ratio between semester/year mark and examination mark of courses offered by COLL is 30:70

The examination period for distance education students will be the same as for full-time and part-time students.

TAKE NOTE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS REGISTERING FOR RESEARCH PROJECT (RPB412S/HRP420S/TRP420S)

Students registering for the Research Project (RPB412S/HRP420S/TRP420S) on the distance education mode of study, should register their Research Topics upon registration with the Coordinators: Academic Support, Ms. Deria Van Wyk and Ms. Fiona Anderson if based in Windhoek or with the Regional Coordinator if based at any of the Regional Centres.

The registration of your Research Topic is very important to ensure timely allocation of your Research Supervisor.

It remains your responsibility to ensure that your Research Topic is submitted to COLL upon registration. Failure to do so will result in your Supervisor being appointed late.

Please note that no extension for the submission of your Research Project will be granted if you failed to submit your Research Topic to COLL.

Completion and Submission of Undergraduate Research Project for Examination

Student should take note of Rule AC4.4 as follows:

TAKE NOTE Undergraduate Research Project must be submitted for examination by 31 October each year if the

student is expecting to graduate in March/April of the following year. The student may further be

granted time until 31 January (for those registered in the second semester) each year to submit a

Research Project, but graduation at the immediately following graduation ceremony is then not

guaranteed. Such extension of time must be approved by the relevant Head of Department in

exceptional cases and after due consideration of the student’s circumstances. Students must make an

application for such extension to the Head of Department through their supervisors before the first due

date of 31 October. Failure to do so will result in the student having to re-register for the Research

Project and pay the prescribed tuition fee.

A student who fails to submit a complete Research Project for examination on or before 31 January or

who obtained a failing mark for such Research Project submitted on 31 January must re-register for the

Research Project and pay the prescribed tuition fee.

A student who has submitted a complete Research Project for examination on or before 31 October, but

who fails to obtain a pass mark for the Project, may revise/improve such project until 31 January without

the need for re-registration. Should the student fail to submit the revised/improved Research Project on

or before 31 January or obtain a failing mark after such re-submission, the student must re-register for

the Research Project and pay the prescribed tuition fee.
