PLEASE CAN YOU DO THIS ASSIGNMENT BY TOMARROW?



1 Assessment PF1 – Samples of screenshots and guidelines for selecting ICT job advertisements Disclaimer: Students must not use any images from the examples below. These are not the answers to the assessment. These examples are provided only as a guideline for creating screenshots for this assessment. Each student must make their own decision in selecting a job advertisement as per the specifications and criteria for Assessment 2 – Portfolio 1. Important: Use these guidelines to select an advertisement. Lecturers will not approve job advertisements as that will provide an unfair advantage to a few students. Acceptable sample 1: Current and ICT job category – see the box with published date. Lengthy job ad with a large number of responsibilities and requirements – one or 2 screenshots can be provided based on where you select the information from the job ad. No need to provide the entire advertisement but provide enough details including the top part. URL and the published date should be visible as highlighted below. Source: Insert URL here 2 Source: Insert URL here Note – this is the second part of the job advertisement above. If an advertisement is long and cannot be covered in one screenshot (in a single page), you may need to provide more than one screenshot that covers the essential criteria you want to address in your assessment. Markers will consider only what is provided for them. However, do not provide several pages of screenshots with extra/unnecessary details. 3 Source: Insert URL here Note: A third page of screenshots for the same advertisement. This is a very long advertisement. You may consider a shorter or more appropriate length that provides adequate information (1 or 2 screenshots at most). 4 Acceptable sample 2: Current and ICT job category – see the box with published date. Medium length job ad can be provided with one screenshot. No need to provide the entire advertisement but provide enough details including the top part. Source: Insert URL here 5 Can be considered if the header information is also available as per previous samples. Not a good example for a job advertisement though. Students might find it difficult to address PF 1 requirements with this kind of minimal information. This is an example for professional writing that is not at a highly professional standard (not much information for the applicants and layout/formatting can be improved) Source: Insert URL here 6 Not accepted for marking: Too old date range though in ICT job category Not accepted for marking – non-ICT job, incorrect category. COIT20249 Assessment Details Assessment item 2—Portfolios Due date: See page 2 for details about submission deadlines for each item. ASSESSMENT Weighting: 40% 2 Length: Depends on each activity Objectives This assignment is designed to encourage the development of professional skills through the completion of weekly activities relevant to the role of an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) professional. Please refer to the Unit Profile to see how this assessment item relates to the Unit Learning Outcomes. These objectives will be measured by the ‘closeness of fit’ to meeting the assessment requirements and marking criteria. General Assessment Criteria Assessments provide the opportunity for students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills to achieve the required standard. To do this, assessment responses need to be both clear and easy to understand. If not, the University cannot determine that students have demonstrated their knowledge and skills. Assessments will, therefore, be marked accordingly including the potential for 0 (zero) marks where relevant. Portfolio items 1 (PF1) and 2 (PF2) must focus on the topics given in the specifications for each item. Any assessment items outside the required topic may be awarded 0 (zero) marks. These Portfolio items must be submitted as per the requirements. PF2 is focused on addressing requirements of the Report (Assessment 3). The intent of PF3 is to provide you with constructive feedback to help you successfully complete the Report. Therefore PF2 must focus on the case study scenario given in the Report Assessment Specification (Assessment 3) or you may be awarded 0 (zero) marks and receive minimal feedback. If you use Track Changes when writing PF1 or PF2 you must ensure that the submitted document is the final and correct version of the document. That is, if your PF1 or PF2 submissions contains Track Changes or Comments or any other editing marks that impact on the marking process, your submission may be awarded 0 (zero) marks. It is your responsibility to submit the final and correct version of all your written submissions. Portfolio item 3 (PF3) consists of three on-line Quizzes identified as PF3A, PF3B and PF3C. You will get one (1) chance only to complete each of them. They must be completed before the due date and time. Owing to the nature of quizzes individual extensions are not possible. Formatting and Structure: Written submissions for PF1 and PF2 should demonstrate a logical flow of discussion, and be free from typographical, spelling and grammatical errors. They should be prepared in MS-Word (or equivalent) using 12 point font (Times New Roman), 1.5 line spacing and have margins of 2.54 cm. Each assessment should address the specific requirements outlined in this document. Students may use separate title/cover pages for each written submission. Cover/title pages are not considered as a part of the length. Submission Deadlines Please see Moodle for the deadlines for each written Portfolio item and online quizzes. PF2 is and in-class assessment for internal students and it must be written AND submitted during class time in Week 6. This assessment activity must be completed in the class in week 6. Therefore it is compulsory for ALL internal students to attend the whole workshop in Week 6. If you are late you may be excluded from the workshop as your late arrival may interfere with other students completing their assessment during class time. Any students who cannot attend their workshop (in-class or online as scheduled by your local lecturer) will need to provide acceptable evidence. For example, if you are sick you would need a doctor’s certificate in the approved form (see Assessment Policy and Procedure – Higher Education Coursework in the policy portal https://www.cqu.edu.au/policy). Distance students will be contacted by the Unit Coordinator to organise how they are to complete the assessment and submission in Week 6. Distance students must plan their schedule to allow time to prepare and complete this activity in Week 6. Extensions will not be approved except in extenuating circumstances – see above for internal students. Academic Integrity Please note that students may be required to provide proof that they completed the assessment themselves. All assignments will be checked for plagiarism (material copied from other students and/or material copied from other sources) using TurnItIn. If you are found to have plagiarised material or if you have used someone else’s words without appropriate referencing, you will be penalised for plagiarism which could result in zero marks for the whole assignment. In some circumstances a more severe penalty may be imposed. Useful information about academic integrity (avoiding plagiarism) can be found at the following location: The University’s Academic Misconduct Procedure is available in the policy portal https://www.cqu.edu.au/policy. CQUniversity referencing guides https://www.cqu.edu.au/student-life/services-and-facilities/referencing/cquniversity-referencing-guides Guidelines with respect to self-referencing are available in Week 5 of the COIT20249 Moodle Unit website. Submission requirements PF1 and PF2 are to be uploaded to Moodle. The submission links can be accessed through the Assessment block on the Moodle Unit website. PF3 (three online quizzes with different deadlines) need to be completed in Moodle. The submission/quiz links can be accessed through the Assessment block on the Moodle Unit website. For PF1 and PF2, the uploaded documents must be fully submitted for grading purposes. That is, the assignment status should be ‘Submitted for grading’. When uploading PF1 you can fully submit it for grading purposes or it can be uploaded as a draft before the due date and time, unless there is an approved extension. At the due date and time Moodle will auto-submit any submissions that are in draft status. Students should not leave drafts on Moodle before the submission deadline if they are not ready for the assessment to be submitted through the auto-submission process. Be aware that any late submissions could attract late penalties. If your PF1 is uploaded after the original due date and time OR you have been granted an extension by the Unit Coordinator you must manually submit PA1 by completing the submission process until the assessment status is ‘Submitted for grading’. PF2 must be fully submitted for grading during the workshop in Week 6 when the local lecturer instructs you to submit (internal students). Distance students must manually submit PF2 at the end of their allocated completion time. The Unit Coordinator will advise them of the submission time. Do NOT leave any draft PF2s in Moodle. Only fully submitted assessments will be regarded as proof of completion of PF2 DURING CLASS TIME. Unless a PF2 is ‘Submitted for grading’ during class time, it will NOT be marked nor will feedback be provided. Assessments left as drafts on Moodle after the deadlines accrue late penalties (does NOT apply to PF2 which must be submitted in class). Late submissions attract penalties at 5% per day of the total available mark for the individual assessment item. See details in the Assessment Policy and Procedure – Higher Education Coursework in the policy portal https://www.cqu.edu.au/policy. PF1 files that are auto-submitted will not be reverted to draft status except in extenuating circumstances, and may attract late penalties. Students need to request a reversion to draft from the Unit Coordinator and will need to provide evidence to support their request. Any assessments downloaded for marking cannot be reverted to draft as the marking process will have commenced. PF2 assessments MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR GRADING in class time when directed by the local lecturer. Owing to the nature of this in-class assessment LATE submissions WILL NOT be marked nor can submissions be reverted to draft. See PF2 specifications for further details. Distance students must submit PF2 files for marking when directed by the Unit Coordinator. Further details on completing the submission process are available via the ‘Moodle Help for Students’ link in the Support block of your Moodle pages.
