Mode of delivery
Clayton (Day)
Workload requirements
Two 1-hour lectures and one 2-hour practical class per week
HUP3022 is a 6 credit point unit. As such, Monash guidelines stipulate requires that a 6 point unit
requires 12 hours of work per week in varying combinations of formal course contact, practical and
/or group activities and private study. Formal contact hours are composed of 2 one-hour lecturers
and one 2 hour workshop/practical class each week. A guideline for the remainder of time
dedicated to this unit would be as follows:
*As Monash University tertiary students entering third year, a level of self-directed learning is
expected. You are encouraged to read beyond lecture notes and seek out further material to
enhance your learning in human pathology.

Teaching approach
Lecture and tutorials or problem classes seminars
There will be two 1-hour lectures per week.
Note: Listening to the lecture on-line does not replace attendance at the lecture; it enables review
and reinforcement of lecture material.
Laboratory-based classes
In addition to the two lectures, there will be a 2-hour tutorial/practical session each week. Practical
workshops will be held in CL_10Chn/CG63 Histology laboratory (Building 13C) (There is a
possibility of having another session atCL_11Chn/G03 Immunology laboratory, if the class size is
big).These sessions, devised to reinforce course content, will be split into tutorial based learning
and practical based learning. The sessions will be comprised of tutorials, case studies, group
demonstrations, slide and anatomical specimen viewing, and hands-on exercises. Students will be
provided with tutorial notes (including questions and suggestions for information collection). This
will serve as a guide allowing students to collect relevant information to facilitate the completion of
the questions at the end of the class.
Tutorial/Practical Workshop:
For each session, students will be required to complete and submit an activity sheet at the end of
the practical class. These will be handed back to students the following week. Students will also
be required to complete Self Directed Learning (SDL) tasks for each practical/tutorial. Students
will participate in a 1 hour Practical test at the end of semester.These activity sheets, SDLs and
the test will count towards 20% of your overall mark.

Assessment requirements
Students are required to note the Facultys assessment policy (item 1.2.1) regarding threshold standards at:
http://www.med.monash.edu.au/policies/assessment-policy.html
Students are required to refer to the University Academic Integrity policy and procedure at:
http://www.policy.monash.edu.au/policy-bank/academic/education/conduct/student-academic-integrity-policy.html
The procedures state that:
Proofreading: The process of identifying errors and suggesting corrections to a text. This must not involve rewriting passages of text in
order to clarify meaning; amending the words used by the author (except to identify the correct spelling of the word used); rearranging
passages of text or code, or reformatting other material; contributing additional material to the original; and checking calculations or
formulae.
Academic Integrity and Technology
In line with the Acceptable Use of Information Technology Facilities by Students Procedures, students are not permitted to use
Information and Communications Technology facilities to sell, purchase or offer to write assignments or other assessable work, or to
request help with such work. Furthermore, students are required to take steps to minimise opportunities for others to cheat by, for
example, not saving work to a shared network drive that is accessible by others and not sharing work on social media sites. Failure to
comply with these requirements may result in disciplinary action under Part 7 of the Monash University (Council) Regulations for
collusion or general misconduct, as appropriate in the circumstances.
Students should be aware that the University will monitor and act on information received about the use of cheat sites, paper mills and
other online resources that promote dishonest academic conduct. If a student has been found to have used any of these sources to
breach the Student Academic Integrity Policy, the University will pursue the matter in accordance with Part 7 of the Monash University
(Council) Regulations.
Participation
Participation is compulsory in all practical and tutorial classes. Failure to attend will result in a mark of 0 for the missed session unless
special consideration has been submitted and approved by the Unit Coordinator.

HUP3022 Human pathology 2: Pathology of human diseases - Semester 2 - 2016
Apply analytical and interpretive skills through review and critical analysis of the literature. Compile a critical report on a chosen
topic related to human disease.
Details of task:Students must complete a written assignment on a topic of their choice from the list provided. These topics can be found
on Moodle. This task will involve a critical analysis of two papers.
The assignment is designed as an introduction to scientific investigation and writing.
This is an important skill that will be required for many (if not all) career paths in the fields of Medicine and Science.
Approximately ~10 topics will be provided in Week 1, each with 3 associated journal articles. You will be required to select and
critically appraise 2 articles from the 3 provided. Note: sign-up lists for each topic will be made available on Moodle in Week 1.
Students are advised to sign up early to avoid missing out on their first topic preference.
You will be required to write a brief literature review style introduction to introduce your area of investigation (Approx. 300-400
words).
This will be followed by a critical appraisal of both of your journal articles and a discussion on whether the findings in the two
papers conflict or complement each other. Where there are differences, suggest possible reasons and further experiments which
could be performed to resolve these differences (Approx. 1500 words).
Your assignment will be completed with a conclusion, succinctly summarizing the new findings in your selected papers, unresolved
questions and the biological and/or clinical significance of this area of research (Approx. 100-200 words).
Your bibliography should reference all the articles (approximately 20) which you have cited in your introduction and conclusions as
well as your selected articles. Referencing should be in Nature Medicine style.
This assignment is designed to develop your skills in numerous areas, including the use of computers to access the scientific/medical
literature, critical analysis and review of the literature and specific research articles, as well as the ability to write a coherent summary of
your findings. For this assignment, keep in mind that scientific writing is very different from essay writing. Scientific writing is evidencebased, with no place for long dissertations, opinions or assertions. The findings of papers should be given concisely, with the relevant
16
HUP3022 Human pathology 2: Pathology of human diseases - Semester 2 - 2016
based, with no place for long dissertations, opinions or assertions. The findings of papers should be given concisely, with the relevant
references.
General Guidelines
The assignment should be 2000 words. Original references and review articles should be cited in your introduction and conclusions.
Internet addresses/web pages are not acceptable as references. Cite references in the text by number according to the order of citation,
and format the reference list at the end of the assignment in numerical order according to the format used for Nature Medicine. Your
assignment must be written with a word processing program on computer and submitted online through Moodle site for the HUP3022
unit. Please do not submit assignments by email. You must retain the original work on disc as you may be asked to send further copies
to the Department. Please run a spell check before submitting. Please note that summarising each paper separately and then
comparing them in the final paragraph is not sufficient.

HUP3022 Human pathology 2: Pathology of human diseases - Semester 2 - 2016
Feedback to you
http://www.med.monash.edu.au/policies/assessmentf.html
For each assessment task, you will be provided with graphs that demonstrate the class average
for each assessment task.
Informal feedback
You can gain an indication of how you are coping with HUP3022 course work by revising your
lecture notes and any other reference material provided during the course of the semester, and
determining how confident you feel in your understanding of lecture material.
If you encounter any difficulties in your understanding of any aspects of the lecture or practical
workshop material, you can contact your lecturers or workshop conveners by e-mail, or
alternatively you can discuss any issues directly with the teaching staff either before or after class.
You may also seek assistance from your peers by posting a question on Moodle. This can directed
to you other students, or also directed to the teaching staff.
You can obtain peer feedback by using your Discussion Board. You can use the discussion
function to pose any question that you want to discuss with your fellows students.
Teaching staff will not view or post responses on this site, and it is not linked to formal assessment.
This site is for you to work through questions with your peers.
If you do use this site, we will expect that you use good internet etiquette:
In order to discuss any questions you may have about course content, you can contact your
lecturers by e-mail, or alternatively approach them before or after lectures.
23
HUP3022 Human pathology 2: Pathology of human diseases - Semester 2 - 2016
During your practical workshop session, the class convenors are available to discuss any
questions you may have. In some cases, class convenors will bring along one or more colleagues
with expertise in the topic under consideration. These experts have been provided to assist the
class convenor and demonstrators, and will be available for your questions and further discussion.
You should also ask questions and discuss workshop content with your demonstrator. Please keep
in mind that Human Pathology is a very broad topic, and your demonstrator will hold expertise in
one aspect of human pathology (not all). It is therefore unreasonable to expect that he or she can
answer all your questions. If necessary, your demonstrator will seek further clarification from the
class convenor in order to better answer your questions.
Your attendance, preparation and completion of assessment sheets will contribute to your final
mark. Therefore, feedback from your demonstrator will provide both formative (discussing how you
are developing your skills) and summative assessment (formal marks).
MCQ:
The mid-semester multiple choice question test is a summative assessment, that will allow you to
determine your understanding of course content mid-way through the semester. For this test, you
will receive a grade to indicate how well you have succeeded in the test (HD: high distinction; D:
distinction; C: credit; P: pass). This assessment task constitutes 15% of your overall grade for the
semester.
Given that this test requires you select the correct answer from a number of choices, it does not
give an idea of the reasoning you used to decide on your final answers. If you require further
feedback on how to improve your performance following the test, you should contact the unitcoordinator, who will be able to provide you with feedback on the areas and subject themes for
which you performed poorly.
Practical workshop activity sheets, student directed learning (SDL) assessment and computer
based assessment in tutorial sessions constitute a continuing form of assessment throughout the
entire semester, allowing you to track your progress on a weekly basis. These assessments
require you to answer several questions regarding the practical and tutorial workshop content in a
given week, and must be completed either prior to class (for SDL) or during the workshop session
(activity sheets). At the practical sessions, the activity sheets will be handed in to your
demonstrator at the end of each session. They will be returned to you the following week with
individual feedback in the form of a mark(0 (incomplete) or 2.5 (partially complete) and 5
(complete))and comments including an indication of areas for improvement.
Tutorial marks will be released after the session is complete and will be available through Moodle.
Taken together, this form of assessment constitutes 20% of your overall grade for the semester.
24
HUP3022 Human pathology 2: Pathology of human diseases - Semester 2 - 2016
Taken together, this form of assessment constitutes 20% of your overall grade for the semester.
Students should avoid copying answers from their peers. If you have any queries about any
questions on the assessment sheet, talk to you demonstrator or the prac convenor. Demonstrators
have been instructed to deduct marks for copying.
Assignment:
This assessment task will examine how well you are able to interpret scientific papers, and
communicate their major findings. In addition to describing scientific findings, you will be required
to compare and contrast findings from 2 different papers on a given topic, and exhibit critical
analysis on the scientific data to the best of your ability.
For this assessment task, you will receive individual feedback in the form of a mark as well as
comments on the areas in which you performed well, in addition to those that require improvement.
This assessment task constitutes 15% of your overall grade for the semester.
Final Exam:
This assessment task allows you to demonstrate the knowledge you have obtained throughout the
entire semester. You will be required to answer 60 MCQ and 5 short answer questions. For this
final exam, you will receive a grade to indicate how well you have succeeded in the test (HD: high
distinction; D: distinction; C: credit; P: pass). This assessment task constitutes 50% of your overall
grade for the semester.
