Read the course's actual expectations
- University courses differ in attendance, preparation and assessment rules. Read the course handbook and task brief rather than assuming that nobody checks progress or that every course works like school.
- This lesson uses original GAC003-aligned practice. Its examples help you plan; they do not replace a university's published requirements or your centre's instructions.
阅读课程的实际要求
- 大学课程的出勤、预习和评估规则各不相同。请阅读课程手册和任务简报，不要假设没人检查进度，也不要假设所有课程都像中学一样运作。
- 本课使用了基于 GAC003 的原创练习。其示例有助于你规划，但不能替代大学发布的官方要求或所在教学中心的指示。
Prepare for the teaching format
- A lecture 讲座 often presents material to a larger group; a seminar 研讨课 often centres on discussion; a tutorial 辅导课 often gives closer guidance on work. Names and participation arrangements vary by course.
- Check the preparation required for each session. Read the assigned material, bring questions or draft work as requested, and follow the local arrangements for asking questions. Quiet participation alone does not diagnose a student's understanding.
为教学形式做准备
- 讲座 通常向较大群体讲授内容；研讨课 通常以讨论为中心；辅导课 通常针对作业提供更细致的指导。名称及参与方式因课程而异。
- 核查每节课所需的准备工作。按要求阅读指定材料，携带问题或草稿，并遵守当地提问安排。沉默参与本身不能诊断学生的理解程度。
Match these example course arrangements to their teaching format. · 将这些示例课程安排与其教学形式匹配。
These are examples of common arrangements, not universal participation rules. Check what the actual course requires you to prepare and bring. · 这些是常见安排的示例，并非 universal participation rules（ universal participation rules）。请核实实际课程要求你准备和携带什么。
Know what your record and work show
- A transcript 成绩单 records academic results. Where a record uses a grade point average 平均绩点, GPA summarises grades under that system's rules. Read its scale and requirements rather than treating the number as a universal admissions guarantee.
- Academic integrity 学术诚信 means following the rules for honest work, permitted help and acknowledging sources. Check the task's actual rules; copying a paragraph with a citation does not automatically make it acceptable submitted work.
了解你的记录和作品展示了什么
- 成绩单 记录学术成绩。当记录中使用 平均绩点 时，GPA 按照该体系规则汇总分数。请阅读其评分标准和具体要求，不要将该数字视为通用的入学保证。
- 学术诚信 指遵守诚实作业、允许协助及注明出处的规则。请核查任务的具体规则；即使引用了出处，抄袭段落也不自动构成可接受的提交作品。
A sample academic transcript lists modules, grades and a GPA. Which description matches that record? · 一份样例学术成绩单列出了模块、成绩和GPA。哪个描述与该记录相符？
This sample records module grades and their GPA summary. The scale and its admissions significance must be checked in the relevant system. · 该样例记录了模块成绩及其GPA摘要。评分标准及其入学意义必须在相关系统中核实。
Ask a specific question early
- Ask when an instruction is unclear and there is still time to use the answer. A focused question about data, structure or a criterion is easier to act on than “I do not understand anything”.
- For example: “Could I check whether the report needs the raw data or only the summary table?” Keep the answer and update the plan. Asking for clarification does not by itself establish that you are failing.
尽早提出具体问题
- 当指令不明确且仍有时间利用答案时提出问题。关于数据、结构或标准的聚焦式问题，比“我什么都不懂”更容易付诸行动。
- 例如：“能否确认报告需要原始数据还是仅需汇总表？”保留答复并更新计划。寻求澄清本身并不等同于失败。
Asking for clarification in week two by itself proves that a student is failing. · 仅在第二周请求澄清本身并不能证明学生正在失败。
A clarification request identifies an unresolved instruction, not a grade. Asking while time remains may help the student use the answer. · 澄清请求表明存在未解决的指令，而非成绩。在时间尚余时提出可能帮助学生利用答案。
Write one email sentence asking a teacher to clarify what a report needs. · 写一句邮件里的话,请老师说明这份报告的要求。
Example: "Could I check whether the report should include the raw data, or only the summary table?" One specific question is easy to answer. · 例如:“Could I check whether the report should include the raw data, or only the summary table?” 一个具体的问题,很容易回答。
Plan for an answer, not a guarantee
- An early question can leave more time to revise, but a teacher's availability and the needed work still matter. Check how the course offers help and record any answer or appointment that is confirmed.
- If the deadline is near, state what is already done and the precise unresolved issue. Do not assume a later deadline, extra help or approval to submit unfinished work has been granted.
为获得答复做计划，而非追求保证
- 早问可以为修改留出更多时间，但教师的可用性及所需工作量依然重要。请核实课程提供的帮助渠道，并记录已确认的答复或预约。
- 如果截止日期临近，请陈述已完成的工作及确切未解决的问题。不要假设已获得延长期限、额外帮助或未完成任务提交的许可。
Check progress against evidence
- Silence from a teacher does not establish that work is correct, incorrect or unread. Review the actual criteria, feedback and completed work rather than guessing why no comment arrived.
- Record what you can demonstrate and what still needs a check. A useful next question points to the unresolved requirement and the evidence you already have.
Use the actual course brief, bring the required preparation and ask about a precise unresolved point. Silence and a session name do not establish the rules or the quality of your work.
根据证据检查进度
- 教师的沉默不代表作品正确、错误或未被阅读。请查阅实际标准、反馈及已完成作品，而非猜测为何没有评论。
- 记录你能展示的内容及仍需核查的部分。一个有用的后续问题应指向未满足的要求及你已拥有的证据。
使用实际的课程简报，携带所需准备材料，并就一个具体的未决问题提出询问。沉默和会话名称不能确立规则或衡量你工作的质量。
Your teacher has said nothing about your progress. What does that mean? · 老师对你的进度什么也没说,这意味着什么?
There are several possible reasons for no comment. Check the task criteria and available feedback, then ask about a specific unresolved point. · 没有评论可能有多种原因。请检查任务标准和可用的反馈，然后就是具体未决问题提问。
