ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES Due Date Assessment Task SPA Factor Applied? Weightings Learning Outcomes

12 Sep Team Report Part A Yes 25% i - v

17 Oct Team Report Part B Yes 25% i - v

7 Nov Student CPEng Report N/A 25% vi

14 Nov Team Report Part C Yes 25% i - v

TOTAL 100 % i - vi Assessment will be based on the team reports for the design assignment, which will be submitted during Parts A, B and C of the subject. Students will work in teams of 6, and will submit team reports (one for each team), and individual Student Chartered Professional Engineer reports. There will be no final exam. The team reports in Parts A, B and C constitute 75% of the total mark for the subject. In order to foster the participation of all members, an online program (SPARKPLUS) will be used for self and peer assessment of individual contributions to team activities. SPARKPLUS allows students to rate their own contribution to team tasks and anonymously rate other team members. SPARKPLUS then produces two factors: 1. SAPA factor Gives feedback on how well the team thinks you are contributing compared to how well

you think you are contributing SAPA factor > 1: You rated your own performance higher than your teammates did (overrated). SAPA factor < 1: You rated your own performance lower than your teammates did (underrated).

2. SPA factor Your average contribution rating compared to the average of all team members contribution ratings. The subject coordinator reserves the right to use the SPA factor to adjust individual marks for team assignments in Parts A Detailed, B and C (ie. The SPA factor will be a multiplier above or below 1).

Please note that both SAPA and SPA factors will be compulsorily used for feedback in Parts A Detailed, B and C. The feedback for Part A Conceptual will provide some opportunity to resolve any team issues before SPA factors are used to adjust individual marks in the remaining group reports. Groups that do not submit a SPARK rating will incur a penalty of 5% against every member of the groups. Please note that there is a time limit for submitting SPARK rating. You can only submit the rating one week before the report due date, until one week after the due date. No exemption will be given without a valid reason. Instructions on how to use SPARKPLUS can be found in the Moodle site. Supplementary Assessment Students who receive a mark of 48% or 49% will be considered for supplementary assessment. The offer of supplementary assessment is not automatic and will be considered on a case by case basis. The precise form of supplementary assessment will be determined at the time the offer of supplementary assessment is made. Students can log on to SOLS and click on the link titled Supplementary Assessment to view any applicable offers. Students must make themselves available during the supplementary exam period to take up any offer of supplementary assessment. The supplementary exam period for spring session 2014 is from 15 - 19 December. No consideration will be given to requests for re-scheduling supplementary exam times, in particular, consideration will not be granted on grounds such as usual or routine work or family commitments, or clashes with recreational activities or holiday arrangements.

Details of referencing system to be used in written work Please see http://www.library.uow.edu.au/resourcesbytopic/UOW026621.html Use of internet resources and restrictions placed on use of internet resources There are no restrictions on students accessing information from the internet, however, students must acknowledge all sources and should not copy information verbatim as this has no academic merit (i.e. no marks are awarded for this type of information) even when referenced correctly. Plagiarism Students are responsible for submitting original work for assessment, without plagiarising or cheating, abiding by the University's policy on plagiarism as set out in the University Handbook under Universities Policy Directory and in Faculty Handbooks and subject guides. Plagiarism has led to the expulsion from the University. Further information on plagiarism and acknowledgement practice can be found in the Faculty Policy document, with full details available online. Submission of Assignments and Penalties for Late Work All assignments should be submitted in hardcopy through the EIS Central. Late assignments will not be accepted without supporting documentation. Late submission will result in a deduction of 10% of the maximum mark per day. To submit an assignment through the EIS Central, you will need to generate a cover sheet on the web and attach this to your assignment. Hand in the assignment to EIS Central and the staff will barcode scan your assignment cover sheet. You will then receive a receipt by email. When your assignment has been marked, you will also be emailed that it is ready to be picked up from EIS Central. On collecting your assignment, EIS Central will barcode scan your student ID card. To generate the cover sheet, go to: http://130.130.8.11/fmi/iwp/res/iwp_auth.html Login: student Password: coverit If you are required to work as a group and are to submit a group assignment or report, nominate a team leader to take the responsibility of generating the cover sheet, handing in the assignment and collecting it back from EIS Central. Only the team leader will be able to collect the assignment. The team leader should select the option and ensure that the other team members names are entered in the appropriate field. All group and individual reports MUST have the Turnitin report attached. Without it, your submission will not be awarded marks. www.turnitin.com Class ID: 8249937 Password: CIVL444S214 Retention of Written Work Written assessment work will be retained by the EIS Central for two weeks after marking.
