Assessment 1 Detail
This is assessment item designed to assess your team’s Key group meeting discussion points and decisions made, your individual contribution to the overall outcome of the project. This will help you to achieve ULO4 and ULO5. All activities undertaken during the project, and the implemented steps need to be presented. A clear justification for any implementation approaches need to be provided, methodologies and/or strategies adopted; The individual element relates to low-level work item specification and evaluation. The tasks associated with this assessment item are as follows. Students required to submit a progress report comprising of previous agreed objectives from ICT3054, progress on these objectives and a brief plan with milestones to complete the project.For each iteration, and for every fortnightly submission, identify specific work items that will support achieving the iteration objectives. This assessment item is assessed through fortnightly iteration plans and evaluations in conjunction. The report should detail the industry-based project assigned to you by your lecturer, focusing on specific aspects. In addition, it should be linked with the designed models the students completed on Project A.
Assessment 1 Marking Criteria and Rubric
The assessment will be marked out of 100 and will be weighted 25% of the total unit mark. The marking criteria and rubric are shown on the following page. Assess each activity separately and specifically against the intended outcome stated in the iteration plan. All activities must result in some change to the project’s artefacts – thisis the only possible measurement of progress. Back up claims of successful activity completion by including the generated or updated artefact with the status assessment.
