Student Activity (Notional Equivalent Study Hours (NESH)) |
Mode of activity | Learning & Teaching Activity | NESH (Study Hours) | NESH Description |
Independent Learning | On-demand Webinar | 25 | The module provides extensive notes that you should work through on a weekly schedule. To help you, each set of notes is accompanied by a video presentation. Viewing the videos is the minimum requirement - you will get a more detailed understanding of the topic by using the notes and following up on the embedded links. |
Face To Face | Practical classes and workshops | 20 | Two hours each week are devoted to in-class hands-on work with C# programming. For the first half of the trimester, this will consist of structured exercises based on an example application. In the second half of the trimester, the practical session will focus on providing support while you are working on the coursework project. |
Online | GROUPIND_STUDY | 20 | You are expected to collaborate with the other students in your team outside of scheduled class time when working on the coursework project. This will involve code development and code review mediated by GitHub. |
Face To Face | Tutorial | 10 | Each week there will be a one-hour interactive tutorial aimed at expanding on the concepts covered in the notes and clarifying any points that you would like to raise. The content of the tutorial sessions may also relate to practical concerns related to the software tools used for the coursework. The content will be adapted depending on your priorities. |
Online | Guided independent study | 125 | Once classes, coursework and video presentations are accounted for, the remainder of the time allocation for the module (125 hours over the full trimester) is for you to use as independent study time. This might include for example additional work on the coursework project, practice with the tools and techniques discussed in the module or wider reading. |

It should provide a clear analysis of the material using appropriate language and terminology. The tutor will also ask questions about the presentation content based on the concepts covered in the module notes. Note that this is an individual presentation that focuses on your personal contribution to the group project work. |
Report | 30 | 1~2~3~4 | Week 13 | , WORDS= 2400 words | Collaborative software development is managed via GitHub using issues, pull requests and code reviews. The report summarises three issues and three code reviews that the student has completed. It should highlight the ways on which the selected issues and code reviews exemplify good practice and how they relate to the module learning outcomes. |
Practical Skills Assessment | 10 | 2 | Week 6 | HOURS= 1h | The quiz will be based on the notes and recorded presentations for units 2, 3, 4 and 5 which cover workflow, project lifecycles, Agile development and testing. Only one attempt will be allowed. |
Practical Skills Assessment | 10 | 3~4 | Week 9 | HOURS= 1h | The quiz will be based on the notes and recorded presentations for units 7 and 8 which cover quality metrics and the use of AI in software engineering. Only one attempt will be allowed. |
