ICT101 – Group Assignment 2 brief 1 | P a g e ICT 101 Discrete Mathematics for IT Assessment # 5 - Group Assignment Trimester 2, 2020 Overview of Assignment This assignment is an extension of individual assignment 1. Students will work in groups of 2-3 to investigate further on the application identified in the previous assignment. When students in a group analysis the application of each member in the group, they choose one application which can be implemented as a computer programme. They will have to analyse, design and construct a flow-chart and investigate further to write it as an algorithm. They also have to use some inputs to check the reliability of the algorithm. Students also have to do a thorough analysis of algorithm to identify any problem and give a suggestion to rectify it. Task Description: Written Report Student group will be exploring and analysis the applications which are identified by each group member and they have to recognise an application that can be programmed in to computer. Each group have to sketch a plane to draw a flow-chart and algorithm. Use some inputs to test the algorithm (Give different trace table for each input) and identify any problem in the algorithm. Suggest a plane to rectify or explain why it can be rectified. Each group has to write one report on its findings. Based on your assignment 1 report, tutor of the class will form the group so that students will not work in their own choice of group. The written report must have the following sections: 1. Introduction 2. Description of why students choose this application and why students omit other application 3. Give a complete plane to implement the application in to a computer program with use of flow- chart 4. Write an appropriate algorithm 5. Use at least two inputs to test the algorithm. Group need to give a trace table for each input. 6. Conclusion 7. Short statement about contributions/Reflections from each group member 8. References ICT101 – Group Assignment 2 brief 2 | P a g e Submission Requirement Deadline to submit written report: Week 11 Sunday (27th Sep 2020), 11.59pm via Moodle. The report must be: 1. Word or pdf document (5 to 10 pages long) 2. Size: A4 3. Use Assignment Cover Page (download from Moodle) with your details and signature 4. Single space 5. Font: Calibri, 11pt Deduction, Late Submission and Extension Late submission penalty: - 5% of the total available marks per calendar day unless an extension is approved. For extension application procedure, please refer to Section 3.3 of the Subject Outline. Plagiarism Please read Section 3.4 Plagiarism and Referencing, from the Subject Outline. Below is part of the statement: “Students plagiarising run the risk of severe penalties ranging from a reduction through to 0 marks for a first offence for a single assessment task, to exclusion from KOI in the most serious repeat cases. Exclusion has serious visa implications.” “Authorship is also an issue under Plagiarism – KOI expects students to submit their own original work in both assessment and exams, or the original work of their group in the case of a group project. All students agree to a statement of authorship when submitting assessments online via Moodle, stating that the work submitted is their own original work. The following are examples of academic misconduct and can attract severe penalties: • Handing in work created by someone else (without acknowledgement), whether copied from another student, written by someone else, or from any published or electronic source, is fraud, and falls under the general Plagiarism guidelines. • Students who willingly allow another student to copy their work in any assessment may be considered to assisting in copying/cheating, and similar penalties may be applied. ” ICT101 – Group Assignment 2 brief 3 | P a g e Marking Ruberic Criteria Fail Pass Credit Distinction High Distinction 0-49% 50-64% 65-74% 75-84% 85-100% Understanding of the Information technology application(s) 2 marks Inaccurate description of all applications of information Technology in the group Basic description of all applications of information Technology in the group Accurate description of all applications of information Technology in the group Accurate description of all applications of information Technology in the group and some connections with relevant topics Polished description of all applications of information Technology in the group and references to relevant theories Detail description of the choice of the application 2 marks Little or no evidence is given for the choice and omit.
