Students need to be aware of their commitment requirements regarding study time. To give you an indication of that, we have based the following information on the Malta Higher Education Quality Assurance Agency guidelines. The notional learning hours associated with qualifications, programmes and individual units of study are based on a broad agreement across institutions that students can expect to spend 10 hours learning on average in order to gain one academic credit unit (QAA 2006).

If you do not secure a pass when calculated from both the assignments, please read closely the feedback and speak with your Course leader(s) or faculty. After consulting the feedback, close attention is essential to rework on the areas of weakness, and then resubmit the work at the next opportunity. As per the QAA requirements, only one REDO is allowed where the marks will be capped at a Pass.
- Plagiarism
All forms of plagiarism are taken seriously, and any suspected cases will be investigated thoroughly. If a case is found proven, then the work will be graded as a failure and the case will be reviewed by the academic committee. The assessment team checks the Turnitin before the evaluation of the assignment is undertaken.
