The Teaching and Learning Expectations for Staff and Students includes a list of expectations that have been formulated to build the environment that we wish to create.

Forums and Online Communication

Forums are one way for you to communicate with your fellow students and the Unit Coordinator, and for the Unit Coordinator to communicate with you and your peers. At times, you may also contact UNE staff, such as your Unit Coordinator, via their UNE email. At all times, students are expected to conduct themselves courteously and with respect when interacting with their peers, lecturers and professional staff. Guidelines and guidance on respectful and professional communication are available at the following links:

If you feel that there has been a breach of these guidelines you should contact your Unit Coordinator, or to make a formal complaint refer to the Complaints, Compliments and Feedback page.
