Additional Information (if any)

This coursework is to be accomplished individually.

NO USE OF GENERATIVE AI EXPECTED

?

Your assignment should be produced using information sourced by you from your learning materials and academic sources and cited appropriately.

AI tools for checking spelling, grammar and referencing may be used.

ACKNOWLEDGED

You can use AI tools to learn about your topic, as part of your study, or in preparing initial guidance on assignments (e.g. headline structure, suggestions for inclusion of topics).

Any materials that you have sourced from AI should be rewritten or reconfigured and integrated into your own work and referenced appropriately. It is recommended that this is confirmed by a relevant academic source.

Any support gained from AI should be acknowledged in a statement at the end of the assignment, making clear what the support was, and how you used it and developed it for your own work. Example statements are available in the Student Code of Conduct.

EMBEDDED

?

Use of AI is an integral and expected part of the assessment.

The explicit inclusion of AI within the assessment means that instructions on the expected use will be part of the assessment brief.

Your assessment brief will describe how you should acknowledge the way in which you used AI tools.

The body of the report should include the following:

I. Introduction and Objectives. Write a short description of the program and its objectives.

II. Program Design. Discuss your adherence to program design principles, including professional and ethical principles. Also, include in this section the required diagrams (Use Case and Class Diagrams), with brief descriptions.

III. Implementation and Testing. Take screenshots of important code snippets from each form and discuss. Test your program, show and then describe the testing process in this section.

IV. Conclusion. Reflect on what you learnt from the experience. Focus on the challenges you have faced and how you overcame them.

Additional instructions:

Your student identification number must be clearly stated at the top of each page of the work.

Each page must be numbered.

Where appropriate, a contents page, a list of tables/figures and a list of abbreviations should precede your work.

All referencing must adhere to School/Institutional requirements (Harvard Referencing Style)

A word count must be stated at the end of your work.

Your programme, year of study and the relevant module must be included as a footer on each page.

Appendices should be kept to the minimum and be of direct relevance to the content of your work.

All tables and figures must be correctly numbered and labelled.

Your coursework report should be submitted by uploading it to Turnitin on the dates indicated for submission.

Upload your report draft to MS Teams for formative feedback.

REPORT FORMATTING DETAILS

1. Use A4-sized paper.

2. Margins of 1" on all sides of the paper.

3. Apply 1.5 line spacing.

4. Use Calibri font for the entire document.

Feedback

Feedback for the assessment will be provided electronically via Turnitin / MS Teams / Face to Face. Feedback will be provided with comments on your strengths and the areas which you can improve. Module tutors give students two types of assessment feedback: formative, which is given when the student is working on the completion of an assignment or coursework, and summative, which is given upon completion of the module. A comprehensive assessment feedback on your performance will be given after the announcement of the results (10 Working Days).
