Why StartSmart?
UOW places a high priority on your success both as a student and as a graduate moving into your professional career. To be a successful student you need to know what is expected of you and where to find the help you need. StartSmart introduces you to the UOW academic environment.
StartSmart helps you develop the essential skills to:
- complete your coursework with academic integrity
- find, evaluate and use information in your assessment tasks
- use feedback and support services to further develop your academic performance
StartSmart is compulsory for all new coursework students, whether you are studying on campus or online. If you are a first year undergraduate studying in Australia, it is also compulsory for you to complete CareerSmart.
To complete StartSmart, work through the content and activities in each section and test your knowledge with the quiz. You have unlimited attempts to pass the quiz, and can check your answers and get feedback as you go. You must get 100% (19/19) to pass the quiz. We recommend you complete StartSmart within your first 3 weeks of study, but you can revisit it at any time.
StartSmart is also recommended for postgraduate research students. It will familiarise you with the UOW academic context.
