Attribute 1: Reviewing the literature for the selected project topic (50%) 2. Attribute 2: Detailed discussion of the selected papers, identifying open problems and proposing some solution approaches (25%) 3. Attribute 3: Presentation and professionalism (25%) Attribute 1: Reviewing the literature for the selected project topic Grade Mark Range Expectation Details Fail 0-49 Unsatisfactory Unsatisfactory work can be characterised by various aspects, including inadequately focussing on non-peer-reviewed sources such as the websites, Wikipedia and performing superficial reviews. Incorrect or inadequate selection of papers with unjustified basis. The student fails to demonstrate enough evidence that s/he has performed satisfactory literature review on the proposed project topic. Pass 50-64 Satisfactory The reviewed literature is sufficient to provide overall big picture for proposed research topic, although it can be envisaged that more thorough review was necessary to identify a solid open problem in the area. The presented review of literature provides adequate details for the reader to understand and appreciate the context of the project. Credit 65-74 Solid In addition to satisfactory expectation, the student demonstrates understanding of the conceptual connections in the reviewed works and is able to identify important correlations or differences. Some specific developments in the area are overlooked but still enough to identify a solid open problem in the area. D 75-84 Solid and well- connected In addition to solid expectation, significant areas of literature in the relevant discipline have been reviewed. Intellectual connections between the different parts of the review have been made and the student is able to relate the work in context with thorough analysis of 2-3 selected papers in the field leading to a well-articulated open problem in the area. HD 85-100 Beyond D The student goes above and beyond the D grade expectations. Attribute 2: Detailed discussion of the selected papers, identifying open problems and proposing some solution approaches Grade Mark Range Expectation Details Fail 0-49 Unsatisfactory The student does not provide detailed discussion of selected 2-3 papers or the discussion is very superficial. There is no convincing attempt to identify an open problem in the field. Pass 50-64 Detailed discussion present but problem A detailed discussion on selected 2-3 papers is present. There is an attempt to identify an open problem in the field but lack adequate detail to articulate the problem. There is no clear solution approach regarding how to attack the problem. identification is not clear Credit 65-74 Clear problem identification with some flaws in the solution approach In addition to the pass requirements, the detailed discussion of the selected papers demonstrates that the student understands some main open problems in the field. S/he provides enough details to articulate about the open problem and its significance. A solution approach is presented but it lacks some details or it has some flaws or it is not convincing enough to provide a solid basis to solve the identified problem. D 75-84 Solid approach to a well articulated open problem In addition to the credit requirements, the approach presented in the report is sound and convincing to provide a solid framework to solve the identified open problem. Some simple simulation work or proof-of-concept study is performed to justify the solution approach. HD 85-100 Beyond D The student goes above and beyond the D grade expectations. Attribute 3: Presentation and Professionalism Grade Mark Range Details Fail 0-49 Presentation is inconsistent and impedes the reading of the document. Common examples are the use of multiple inconsistent citation styles, or improper and incomplete citations, inarticulate grammar and sentence structures, unlabeled figures and tables, inconsistent document formatting. Pass 50-64 Presentation adheres to at least a minimum professional spirit and template is followed. Figures/tables etc., are labelled, in-text citations follow the reference list correctly in a consistent citation format. Formatting and layout are inconsistent at times. Frequent grammar and typological mistakes are found. Credit 65-74 Appropriate use of section and sub-section heading structures, but layout devices (such as bullets, lists) are not utilized to maximize readability. Figures and diagrams are labelled, formatting is consistent, figures/graphs are clear, of good quality and all sections clearly labelled. Some grammar and typological mistakes are present. Some redundancy is noted such as loss in succinctness of text and large or low-quality figures. D 75-84 Appropriate use of section and sub-section heading structures with effectively using layout devices to present information in a way that communicates the maximum content in a minimal effort from the reader. Presentation engages the reader. Minor grammar or typological mistakes exist. Figures and diagrams are correctly and clearly labelled. Presentation of some graphs/tables is inappropriate such as poor choice of axes and overcrowding of text/curves. HD 85-100 In addition to the distinction requirements, text is clear, and discussions are concise, leading to the point with conclusions. Graphical presentation of data is appropriate, data is reasonably processed into information. Presentation is clear, and the text versus document length value is effectively communicated. No grammar or typological mistakes.
