Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Early lectures (delivered online for DL students) covers essential topics for working in a group,& take students through the process of selecting a project and forming a team.Each group is allocated a supervisor who ensures that timescales are adhered to & that all group members are contributing the overall effort.Each group is required to take responsibility for its own organisation and management. The organisational and reflective skills developed in this module are closely related to those required for the dissertation. DL students will be expected to share documents via, e.g. SharePoint, etc. They will normally communicate with each other/the supervisor via MSN Messenger, Skype, Elluminate and/or email.The requirement for groups to be self-organising directly addresses LO1. This is an opportunity for students either to apply project management skills that they already possess, or to learn about them for the first time. Assessment of learning outcome should reflect the group’s existing level of knowledge, giving credit for initiative, thoroughness and learning of new skills where appropriate. Techniques for the description of software systems - LO2 requires application of existing skills in a new context. LO2 requires that the student develop their ability to select appropriate techniques to suit the context, and to use available contextual information to define the objectives of a development project. LO3-students to select and apply appropriate techniques for the development of their prototypes. Each group is required to provide evidence of their work in the form of 2 written reports and a group presentation of the final prototype (via teleconferencing or equivalent for DL students). This covers LO5. 2 personal statements required from each individual (LO4) and provide evidence of that student’s involvement & appreciation of the organisational and decision-making processes within a development team.
