About me… • Matthew Dean • mjdean@dmu.ac.uk • http://www.tech.dmu.ac.uk/~mjdean/ • (Or Google mjdean dmu)
Welcome • During the module you will learn how to create applications for the Web • We will be using Active Server Pages (ASP.NET) the language is C#.NET • You will be introduced to all of the underlying concepts of programming that may be applied to any other language that you learn in the future
Delivery • 1 Lecture (Some weeks won’t have a lecture – see module web site for up to date schedule) • 1 x 2 hour labs each week • 100% coursework • Module web site • all handouts • assessment documentation • tutorial videos • http://www.cse.dmu.ac.uk/~mjdean
Assessments • Two Phase Tests weighted at 30% • Four Driving Tests weighted at 10% each. • Bonus scheme worth up to 20%
Driving Tests • Four Driving Tests • Apply lab work to your own design • Obtain peer assessments • Book the test with your tutor • Marks allocated on a sliding scale depending on how long you take to pass • Skip three questions • At your tutor’s convenience • If you fail then try again next week
Phase Tests • You will be assessed around the Christmas and Easter breaks – check module web site for exact dates • You have been given a sample question and solution • On the day of the test you will be given a different question (of a similar style)
The Bonus Scheme • There are 20 marks available on top of the standard 100 (Capped at 100 though!) • You may either work in a team or as an individual • For example… • All members of your team pass a specific milestone e.g. They all pass the first interview • You keep a personal diary of your learning
Things to Watch • You must attempt both phase tests otherwise your module grade is capped at 40% • The only way to fail this module is by giving up!
Anonymous Marking • DMU has a policy of anonymous marking where this is appropriate • Driving test – not anonymous • Phase test - anonymous
Attendance • Roughly 80% of students pass this module • All of the students who failed their year 1 last year had less than 25% attendance throughout the year on their modules • Those students who just passed or passed after reassessment had only average attendance (50%) • Students who did well had good attendance • High levels of attendance result in higher grades • Contact your lab tutor and your personal tutor if you are going to be absent • Attendance is monitored, poor attendance may lead to termination from the course!
