COMP8320 Assessment 2011

Proposed  Assessment  Scheme

The proposed assessment scheme for COMP8320 in 2011 will be in the following parts:

  1. Assignments: 50%, three.

    # theme weight wk out wk due
    1 T2 20 2 6
    2 GPU 15 6 8
    3 SCC 15 9 12
    These will contain a significant programming component, plus a report answering specific questions, such as analysis of program performance. Assignment 3 may have a reading component with a possibly reduced programming component.

  2. Final Examination 50%
    One A4 page of notes (both sides, printed or hand written) is permitted; a calculator is not permitted.
These components are then added to give your final mark. This may then be scaled to give your overall course mark and grade. In particular, the final marks may be moderated by the School of Computer Science examiners meeting.

Notes:

  • We will discuss the proposed scheme in weeks 1 and 2. There is some scope for flexibility.

Extensions and Late Penalties for Assignments

This will be as for COMP2300/6300 2009.

Plagiarism and Assisting Plagiarism in Assignments

Assingments should be assumed to be individual, unless specified otherwise in the assignment document.

For the general SoCS policy, which applies to this course, you should read the chapter in the Department of Computer Science Student Handbook that discusses assessment (Chapter 6, pages 17-25), particularly the sections headed Misconduct in examinations (which also applies to assignments and other forms of assessment) and Guidelines for assignments.
