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
This course will be assessessed through a combination of individual and group submissions*.
* The specific due date for each assessment task will be available on MyUni.Assessment Task Weighting (%) Individual/ Group Formative/ Summative Learning outcomes 3 Case study analyses 20 Individual Summative 1-5 Workshops 15 Group Formative 1,2,3 Code refactoring Assignment 35 Individual Summative 1-5 Gateway architecture Assignment 20 Group Summative 1,3,4,5 Lecture Participation 10 Individual Formative 1. 2. 3. 4, 5 Total 100
Assessment Detail
The assessment for this course comprises of four main components. Detailed specifications of each is avaiable in myUni, and a summary presented below.
1. Case study analyses - this assessment group of three case studies has been created in collaboration with all the industry partners delivering this course. Each case study presents an annonymised version of a problem that an industry partner is facing or has faced. Students are required to present a solution to the problem, making a trade-off analysis between various factors.
2. Workshop submissions - the workshops are delivered either by our industry partners or present industry focused problems (e.g. DevSecOps pipelines). Students will be working in groups to come up with solutions to various problems defined by our industry partners.
3. Code refactoring assignment - in this assignment, students will be working individually to refactor a large-scale complex codebase.
4. Gateway architecture assignment - in this assignment, students will work in teams to implement and deploy a gateway microservice architecture.
Submission
All submissions will happen on myUni, and relevant details about deadlines and submission artifacts will be available there.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.

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.
