No more than 10% of the assignment may consist of direct quotes. 2. Any assignment with a similarity index of more than 25% will be scrutinised for plagiarism. Please ensure you attach an originality report to your assignment if required. 3. Make a copy of your assignment before handing it in. 4. Assignments must be typed unless otherwise specified. 5.

Hence, The IIE considers i t essential to develop the referencing skills of our s tudents in our commitment to achieve high academic s tandards. Part of achieving these high standards is referencing in a way that i s consistent, technically correct and congruent. This i s not plagiarism, which is handled differently. Poor quality formatting in your referencing will result in a penalty of a maximum of ten percent being deducted from the mark awarded, according to the following guidelines. Please note, however, that evidence of plagiarism in the form of copied or uncited work (not referenced), absent reference lists, or exceptionally poor referencing, may result in action being taken in accordance with The IIE’s Intellectual Integrity Policy (0023) . Markers are required to provide feedback to students by indicating (circling/underlining) the information that best describes the student’s work. Minor technical referencing errors: 5% deduction from the overall mark – the student’s work contains five or more errors listed in the minor errors column in the table below. Major technical referencing errors: 10% deduction from the overall mark – the student’s work contains five or more errors listed in the major errors column in the table below. If both minor and major errors are indicated, then 10% is deducted from the overall mark. The examples provided below are not exhaustive but are provided to illustrate the error. Required: Technically correct referencing style Minor errors In technical correctness of referencing style Deduct 5% from mark awarded Major errors In technical correctness of referencing style Deduct 10% from mark awarded Consistency The same referencing format has been used for all in-text references and in the bibliography/reference list. Minor inconsistencies. The referencing style is generally consistent, but there are one or two changes in the format of in-text referencing and/or in the bibliography. For example, page numbers for direct quotes (in-text) have been provided for one source, but not in another instance. Two book chapters (bibliography) have been referenced in the bibliography in two different formats. Major inconsistencies. Poor and inconsistent referencing style used in-text and/or in the bibliography/ reference list. Multiple formats for the same type of referencing have been used. For example, the format for direct quotes (in-text) and/or book chapters (bibliography/ reference list) is different across multiple instances. Technical correctness Referencing format is technically correct throughout the submission. Position of the reference: a reference is directly associated with every concept or idea. For example, quotation marks, page numbers, years, etc. are applied correctly, sources in the bibliography/reference list are correctly presented. Generally, technically correct with some minor errors. The correct referencing format has been consistently used, but there are one or two errors. Concepts and ideas are typically referenced, but a reference is missing from one small section of the work. Position of the references: references are only given at the beginning or end of every paragraph. For example, the student has incorrectly presented direct quotes (in-text) and/or book chapters (bibliography/reference list). Technically incorrect. The referencing format is incorrect. Concepts and ideas are typically referenced, but a reference is missing from small sections of the work. Position of the references: references are only given at the beginning or end of large sections of work. For example, incorrect author information is provided, no year of publication is provided, quotation marks and/or page numbers for direct quotes missing, page numbers are provided for paraphrased material, the incorrect punctuation is used (in-text); the bibliography/reference list is not in alphabetical order, the incorrect format for a book chapter/journal article is used, information is missing e.g. no place of publication had been provided (bibliography); repeated sources on the reference list. Congruence between in-text referencing and bibliography/reference list All sources are accurately reflected and are all accurately included in the bibliography/reference list. Generally, congruence between the in-text referencing and the bibliography/ reference list with one or two errors. There is largely a match between the sources presented in-text and the bibliography. For example, a source appears in the text, but not in the bibliography/reference list or vice versa. A lack of congruence between the in-text referencing and the bibliography. No relationship/several incongruencies between the in-text referencing and the bibliography/reference list. For example, sources are included in-text, but not in the bibliography and vice versa, a link, rather than the actual reference is provided in the bibliography. In summary: the recording of references is accurate and complete. In summary, at least 80% of the sources are correctly reflected and included in a reference list. In summary, at least 60% of the sources are incorrectly reflected and/or not included in reference list. Overall Feedback about the consistency, technical correctness and congruence between in-text referencing and bibliography: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 18; 19; 20 2020 © The Independent Institute of Education (Pty) Ltd 2020 Page 3 of 6 Question 1 (Marks: 10) Read the scenario below, then answer the question(s) that follow. Please note that Question 2 to 4 also refers back to the scenario below. Williams & Son is a hardware shop which allows customers to purchase DIY (Do It Yourself) tools seven days a week. Currently, the shop uses a manual, paper-based system for processing sales transactions. Because the hardware shop is open seven days a week, the number of sales transactions processed daily has increased exponentially each month since the opening of the store. Queues are long and with the manual transaction processing system, service is slow and this is affecting customer service satisfaction. For this reason, Mr. James Williams, the owner, has decided that it is time to switch over to an electronic transaction processing system. Since you are on your way to becoming a promising young programmer and also a friend of Mr. Williams’ son, Mr. Williams has decided to contract you to develop this new system. Q.1.1 Explain the process that you will be following when designing and developing the system. Note: For this question it is not sufficient to merely list the phase of the program development cycle, you also need to briefly mention what will happen during that phase in relation to the hardware shop’s system. (10) 18; 19; 20 2020 © The Independent Institute of Education (Pty) Ltd 2020 Page 4 of 6 Question 2 (Marks: 50) The system to be developed for Williams and Son needs to produce the following slip for a customer once the sale has been concluded. Please note: For the purpose of this assignment, assume that a customer will only purchase one unit of each item. Q.2.1 Write the pseudocode that will produce a slip similar to the one illustrated at the beginning of the question. Your solution should satisfy the following requirements: The solution must illustrate the use of good programming practices; The solution must make use of a loop; The loop must make use of a sentinel value. (22) Q.2.2 The mainline logic of almost every procedural program consists of three parts namely housekeeping tasks, detail loop tasks and end-of-job tasks. By making use of flowcharts, show how these parts can be implemented in your solution for Question 2.1. (23) Q.2.3 All of your solutions should be structured. Explain why your solution can be considered a structured solution. (5) Williams & Son
