College of Engineering, Science and TechnologySchool of Building & Civil EngineeringCertificate IV in Carpentry and Joinery

1.0 Background Information

In 2010, the Fiji government mandated to merge Fiji Institute of Technology with existing five colleges in Fiji. The merger of the six colleges brings to the birth of the Fiji National University (FNU). Among the colleges of said university are the College of Engineering, Science and Technology (CEST).The Certificate in Carpentry and Joinery is offered in CEST , which is to be approved by the Industry Advisory Council and FNU Senate.

The realignment of the whole Certificate IV in Carpentry& Joinery is now presented in this document.

1.1 Rationale

FNU has a responsibility to the Nation, the student and to industry. The student and industry in their turn have a responsibility to their chosen profession. In these days of ever widening access to tertiary education Certificate IV is rapidly becoming the minimum qualification for gaining entry to professional employment. It is therefore seen as being of vital importance to all parties to enable each student to reach the highest level of education of which he or she is capable. In practice this means that the best students should aspire to degree.

The curriculum documents have also been prepared to comply with the requirements of The General Academic Statute of the Fiji Institute of Technology and more recently the University Academic and Student Regulations (UASR) of the Fiji National University (FNU).

1.2 Aims and Objectives

To educate students in the field Carpentry in order to prepare them for careers in the Construction industry, professional tradesman, entrepreneurs, and enable them to become a leader in their field of expertise. The objectives of the programme are to;

4

a) Provide a thorough foundation in the basic physical knowledge of construction in Fiji.

b) To teach students basic scientific principles of solving technological problems in construction by providing them instructions in analysis, development, design and practical work in the various types of construction.

c) To train the students to acquire the capability for meaningful result oriented research in the construction sector..

d) To acquire advance knowledge through conduct of basic, applied and adaptive research.

e) To be capable of addressing issues of ethics, safety, professionalism, cultural diversity, globalization, environmental impact and social and economic impact in engineering practice.

f) To create construction solutions (and products) with socio-economic impact that can create wealth to the nation.

g) To attract potential investors to the country because of highly educated work force and imply minimal costs to the operation.

1.3 Graduate Profile

The profile for student graduating in Certificate IV in Carpentry and Joinery is to produce competent Tradesman that will become the “leading lights” of the industry. A successful candidate who completed said field of study should have and be able to have:

a) Sufficiency of theoretical knowledge in the types of footings used in Construction.

b) Estimate and build residential buildings. c) Liaise with government and local government organisations and

generally facilitate the process of satisfying many legal requirements to which the construction industry is obliged to conform.

d) Act as an effective channel of communication between the construction team and the labour force.

1.4 Program Philosophy

Throughout the programme the emphasis is on personal development, whether through project/investigative work or through more traditional teaching methods. Courses provide a mixture of theory to develop the intellectual skills of the student, with hands-on activities to develop the practical skills, which are vital to the practicing tradesman.

There is a considerable degree of flexibility tolerated for students who wish to break their studies, have to resit examinations or repeat units. The only stipulation being

Prerequisites must be satisfied before proceeding to advanced units and Re-sits and repeats can only be taken when the unit is next offered officially

The final outcome for graduation must be the accumulation of 20 appropriate units plus the mandatory 12 months industrial experience. The student should submit the Work Experience Record Book to the school duly signed by the employer.

4.0 Assessment

4.1 Assessment Philosophy

Assessment is broken down into formative and summative components. Details are expanded below.

4.2 Methods of Assessment

The aim of summative assessment is to provide the examination board with evidence on which to base its recommendations regarding the award of grades. The primary tool for summative assessment is by final examination. These will normally be of either two or three hours duration as appropriate to the subject matter. An additional ten minutes reading time will be allowed. In preparing examination papers, consideration will be given to the level of attainment of the candidates. The aim being

8

to move the candidates progressively from closed type problem solving towards a more open ended style of examination question. The aim of formative assessment is to guide and encourage the student to meet the performance criteria set out in each of the unit descriptors. Its primary purpose is therefore educational. The primary tool for formative assessment is the assignment. Assignments are used to develop the students’ problem solving skills and to provide guidance as to the level of attainment expected. Marks for assignment work reflect the degree to which the student has met the performance criteria. Comments on the student’s submission indicate how the work could be improved to better meet those criteria. Assignments also form the basis of the tutorial programme where the emphasis is on active rather than passive learning. Classroom exercises are an essential part of the assessment procedure. They are assessed on the basis of a report of the work carried out and the conclusions drawn. As part of the exercise, the student is expected to conduct a literature search and review.

4.3 Criteria for Assessment

All units require that a student obtain a total mark of 50%. In units with final examinations the student must also obtain the stated minimum mark in the examination .Assignments must be completed to an acceptable standard. Attendance during class tests are compulsory.

5.0 Teaching and Learning Methods

5.1 Introduction

A variety of teaching methods will be used to facilitate the achievement of the aims and objectives of the programme. In the initial stages of the process of intellectual development the student will be guided towards the achievement of a successful outcome to each activity. In later stages however, this guidance will be reduced so as to encourage the student to become a self-motivated independent learner.

5.2 Methods

Teaching will be by a mixture of formal lectures, laboratory sessions and the solution of both closed and open-ended problems in engineering design and construction. Classroom-based activities will emphasise active participation in the learning process. In the early stages students will participate in tradition problem solving activities. Students will be expected to supply reasoned arguments in support of their approaches to solving assignment problems. Later on and as a pre-requisite to solving more open-ended problems, students will be encouraged to extend their knowledge base through directed study of externally available resource material. In the final semester the students will be required to carry out a design project based on civil engineering practice. The project will be directed towards an actual engineering problem in Fiji and will require integration of knowledge from different parts of the programme syllabus.

Dissatisfaction with AssessmentThe academic conduct of the students is governed by the University Academic and Students Regulation (UASR). All students must obtain a copy of the UASR from the FNU academic office and familiarize themselves with all academic matters.

21

Should a student be dissatisfied with either the internal or external assessment, they can take the following steps to get redress of their grievance.

Internal Assessment: The student can refer the work back to the unit coordinator for checking and reassessment. Following this reassessment, if the student is still dissatisfied, the student may refer the work to the HOD. The HOD will then appoint another lecturer to examine the work and result will then stand.

Final Exam: The student can apply for re-check of the grade as per the procedures laid down in the UASR.

Plagiarism and Dishonest Practice RegulationsPlagiarism is taking another person's words or ideas and using them as if they were your own. It can be either deliberate or accidental. Plagiarism is taken very seriously in higher education. If even a small section of your work is found to have been plagiarized, it is likely that you will be assigned a mark of '0' for that assignment. In more serious cases, it may be necessary for you to repeat the course completely. In some cases, plagiarism may even lead to your expulsion from the university.

ACTIONS THAT CONSTITUTE PLAGIARISM

1. Downloading and turning in a paper from the Web including a Web page or a paper from an essay writing service.

2. Copying and pasting phrases, sentences, or paragraphs into your paper without showing a quotation and adding

proper citation.3. Paraphrasing or summarizing a source’s words or ideas without proper citation.4. Including a graph, table or picture from a source without proper citation.5. Getting so much help from a tutor or writing helper that the paper or part of the paper is no longer honestly

your own work.6. Turning in previously written work when that practice is prohibited by your instructor.

Dissatisfaction with AssessmentThe academic conduct of the students is governed by the University Academic and Students Regulation (UASR). All students must obtain a copy of the UASR from the FNU academic office and familiarize themselves with all academic matters.Should a student be dissatisfied with either the internal or external assessment, they can take the following steps to get redress of their grievance.Internal Assessment: The student can refer the work back to the unit coordinator for checking and reassessment. Following this reassessment, if the student is still dissatisfied, the student may refer the work to the HOD. The HOD will then appoint another lecturer to examine the work and result will then stand.

Final Exam: The student can apply for re-check of the grade as per the procedures laid down in the UASR.

Plagiarism and Dishonest Practice RegulationsPlagiarism is taking another person's words or ideas and using them as if they were your own. It can be either deliberate or accidental. Plagiarism is taken very seriously in higher education. If even a small section of your work is found to have been plagiarised, it is likely that you will be assigned a mark of '0' for that assignment. In more serious cases, it may be necessary for you to repeat the course completely. In some cases, plagiarism may even lead to your expulsion from the university.

Actions that constitute plagrism1. Downloading and turning in a paper from the Web including a Web page or a paper from an essay writing service.2. Copying and pasting phrases, sentences, or paragraphs into your paper without showing a quotation and adding proper citation.3. Paraphrasing or summarising a source’s words or ideas without proper citation.4. Including a graph, table or picture from a source without proper citation.5. Getting so much help from a tutor or writing helper that the paper or part of the paper is no longer honestly your own work.6. Turning in previously written work when that practice is prohibited by your instructor.

Dissatisfaction with AssessmentThe academic conduct of the students is governed by the University Academic and Students Regulation (UASR). All students must obtain a copy of the UASR from the FNU academic office and familiarize themselves with all academic matters.

Should a student be dissatisfied with either the internal or external assessment, they can take the following steps to get redress of their grievance.

Internal Assessment: The student can refer the work back to the unit coordinator for checking and reassessment. Following this reassessment, if the student is still dissatisfied, the student may refer the work to the HOD. The HOD will then appoint another lecturer to examine the work and result will then stand.

Final Exam: The student can apply for re-check of the grade as per the procedures laid down in the UASR.

Plagiarism and Dishonest Practice RegulationsPlagiarism is taking another person's words or ideas and using them as if they were your own. It can be either deliberate or accidental. Plagiarism is taken very seriously in higher education. If even a small section of your work is found to have been plagiarised, it is likely that you will be assigned a mark of '0' for that assignment. In more serious cases, it may be necessary for you to repeat the course completely. In some cases, plagiarism may even lead to your expulsion from the university.

Actions that constitute plagiarism1. Downloading and turning in a paper from the Web including a Web page or a paper from an essay writing service.2. Copying and pasting phrases, sentences, or paragraphs into your paper without showing a quotation and adding proper citation.

3. Paraphrasing or summarising a source’s words or ideas without proper citation.4. Including a graph, table or picture from a source without proper citation.

87

5. Getting so much help from a tutor or writing helper that the paper or part of the paper is no longer honestly your own work.

6. Turning in previously written work when that practice is prohibited by your instructor.

Dissatisfaction with AssessmentThe academic conduct of the students is governed by the University Academic and Students Regulation (UASR). All students must obtain a copy of the UASR from the FNU academic office and familiarize themselves with all academic matters.

Should a student be dissatisfied with either the internal or external assessment, they can take the following steps to get redress of their grievance.

Internal Assessment: The student can refer the work back to the unit coordinator for checking and reassessment. Following this reassessment, if the student is still dissatisfied, the student may refer the work to the HOD. The HOD will then appoint another lecturer to examine the work and result will then stand.

Final Exam: The student can apply for re-check of the grade as per the procedures laid down in the UASR.

Plagiarism and Dishonest Practice RegulationsPlagiarism is taking another person's words or ideas and using them as if they were your own. It can be either deliberate or accidental. Plagiarism is taken very seriously in higher education. If even a small section of your work is found to have been plagiarised, it is likely that you will be assigned a mark of '0' for that assignment. In more serious cases, it may be necessary for you to repeat the course completely. In some cases, plagiarism may even lead to your expulsion from the university.

Actions that constitute plagiarism1. Downloading and turning in a paper from the Web including a Web page or a paper from an essay writing service.2. Copying and pasting phrases, sentences, or paragraphs into your paper without showing a quotation and adding proper citation.

3. Paraphrasing or summarising a source’s words or ideas without proper citation.

4. Including a graph, table or picture from a source without proper citation.5. Getting so much help from a tutor or writing helper that the paper or part of the paper is no longer honestly your own work.

6. Turning in previously written work when that practice is prohibited by your instructor.
