Assessment
Additional details
The subject is assessed on the project management, problem analysis, software design, implementation and testing, artefacts generated during the project and submitted at the end of the project, and on a final report submitted by the team at the end of the project.
1. The analysis and process-related documentation totalling approximately 8000-10000 words, requiring approximately 48- 52 hours of work (55%) and includes:
- A project management component assessing the team’s ability to manage a repeatable process, reviewed in week 3
- An analysis and design component assessing the team’s ability to apply software engineering principles and techniques to the development of a software system, reviewed in weeks 5 and 7 and 9
- A test planning component assessing the team’s ability to apply software engineering knowledge of validation and verification, reviewed in weeks 7 and 9.
2. A final release, of Software, submitted in week 12, requiring approximately 30 - 35 hours of work (30%) that assesses the team’s ability to develop a non-trivial software system using software engineering principles and techniques
3. A component of the marks will be based on the individual’s contribution to the project over the course of the semester (15%)
A component of each submission addresses each of the Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs)
ILOs 1, 2, and 4 are specifically addressed by the final release (item 2)
ILO 3 is specifically addressed via the project management component of item 1
