Completed in pairs, this assessment sees students work collaboratively to produce a creative media output and an accompanying rationale detailing and justifying the stylistic choices made (in the case of MSTU1001 students produce a section of film storyboard). Students are marked on their grasp of relevant conventions and theories.

In small groups students prepare an oral presentation in which they draw on key disciplinary outputs to discuss a topic relevant to the course content. Additionally, students must individually provide peer feedback/reflections for two other group presentations, the form of which is to be decided by the student.

Designed to encourage students to participate in discipline specific real-world discussions, this assessment sees students post in the 'comments' section of online news websites, using either the originally posted article or an existing comment as stimuli. Students write a total of three comments, the best two of which are marked.

Designed as part of a research-led learning environment, this assessment is comprised two scaffolded assessments; a 30-minute oral presentation and an extended research essay (6000-8000 words). This assessment has been successfully administered as part of UQ's interdisciplinary (Law and Political Science and International Studies) Trafficking Persons Working Group.

Designed with an explicit focus on developing students writing capabilities (especially in relation to professional and/or vocational genres), this assessment sees students produce weekly written pieces of varying genres for which they receive qualitative feedback. Students must then choose 4 of these written pieces for revision and inclusion in a summative online portfolio portfolio .

Designed to develop student's critical awareness of their own writing practice and to learn modes of creative and reflective written genres, this assessment sees student write a short creative genre piece (in the case of WRIT1005 students write a children's short story) and produce an accompanying 500-word critical reflection .

This authentic assessment sees students work collaboratively in groups to engage an external participant group in the production of media output based on topical and generative themes selected by the organisation participant through processes of facilitation and discussion.

In small groups (2-4) students liaise with an external client organisation and conduct stakeholder engagement to produce a report or output that aligns with client needs. In the case of COMU7013, students design, conduct, analyse, and report on, a participatory needs and opportunity assessment relating to a simple, real-world issue.

This learning experience (and accompanying assessment) sees students travel to an oversees destination and engage in extended, experiential learning . Students are required to complete a combination of on-site assessment such as practical fieldwork , fieldwork journals and presentations, as well off-site assessment such as final research essays based on fieldwork.

Appropriated from traditional philosophical teaching methods, this assessment sees students complete three 'disputations' throughout the semester in which they articulate and debate opposing positions in relation to a set question or topic based on course content. The aim is to deepen students understanding of, and ability to articulate, core course concepts.
