Learning Resources
Required Resources
There is no required text-book. Comprehensive lecture notes are available for most parts of the course.Recommended Resources
You can perform all the exercise work required for the course in the 最新糖心Vlog computer Labs. The programming language used is Java. However, if you want to be able to work at home, you could consider installing Java on your own system.Online Learning

Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
The course will be taught with lecture/demonstration sessions. There will also be tutorial classes, and practical exercises. You are expected to attend the lectures and take part in the activities, and attempt tutorial questions before the scheduled tutorial session. All lectures will be recorded, but it is unwise to rely on the recordings as your only source to study the course.Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
You are expected to attend all scheduled lecture classes (2 hours per week). In addition to the schedule contact hours, you are expected to spend an additional 2-4 hours per week after each lecture to consolidate your understanding of it. You will need to allocate up to 5 hours per week to work on the assignments and tutorials.Learning Activities Summary
There is an approximate schedule of the topics that will be covered on the course website. The exact timing will depend on the times of public holidays and other eventualities. -
Assessment
The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
- Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
- Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
- Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
- Assessment must maintain academic standards.
Assessment Summary
The assessment comprises two parts: three programming exercises (13%+13%+14%); and a final exam (60%).Assessment Related Requirements
To pass the course you must achieve:
- at least 40% in the exam, and
- 50% overall to pass the course.Assessment Detail
All practical assignments require you to write programs, which will be marked by an automatic testing script. You are strongly encouraged to begin the exercises early, to allow time for seeking help when needed. You will find that the marking script is aggessively hostile - it will seek to break your program. The test script does not tell you exactly what is being tested, and may provide little or no information that is useful in finding errors. If you submit your exercise at the last minute, and hope to use the automated tester to help you debug your program, you will be seriously disappointed. You should build your program in small stages, and test it thoroughly.
To encourage you to test your own program, access to the tester may be limited to a fixed number of test runs. The first test run will occur on the due date for the execise, and the subsequent two runs will be at about 4-day intervals afterwards.
The testing regime is like this because, you will most likely soon graduate, after which there will be no more automatic testers available - you will need to learn how to test, and write you own testers.Submission
All practical assignments must be submitted using the School of Computer Science online Submission System. Details are included in each assignment description on the course website. At the time of submission, some elementary tests will be run to ensure that your program is fundamentally OK. If you fail any of the handin tests, you will likely fail almost all of the real tests.
If you hand in your work late, you will miss the test-runs, and deprive yourself of vital evidence that might help you debug your program. Start early, test often!Course Grading
Grades for your performance in this course will be awarded in accordance with the following scheme:
M10 (Coursework Mark Scheme) Grade Mark Description FNS Fail No Submission F 1-49 Fail P 50-64 Pass C 65-74 Credit D 75-84 Distinction HD 85-100 High Distinction CN Continuing NFE No Formal Examination RP Result Pending Further details of the grades/results can be obtained from Examinations.
Grade Descriptors are available which provide a general guide to the standard of work that is expected at each grade level. More information at Assessment for Coursework Programs.
Final results for this course will be made available through .

Student Feedback
The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness
Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
