It is acceptable to discuss course content with others to improve your understanding and clarify requirements, but solutions to activities must be done individually. You must not copy from anyone, including tutors and fellow students, nor allow others to copy your work. All Assignments will be checked using collusion monitoring tools to ensure that each assignment is the original work of the submitting student. Activities that do not adhere to this requirement will be deemed as being the result of collusion or plagiarism. This may lead to severe academic penalties as outlined in USQ Policy Library. It is your own responsibility to ensure the integrity of your work. Refer to the Academic Integrity Policy for more details: http://policy.usq.edu.au/documents.php?id=13752PL In completing these activities, you are expected to use available resources such as the practical activities in the study modules, the Course Study Desk – especially the Discussion List (click the Study Desk link on UConnect – ), as well as exploring and experimenting on your own. Applicable course objective:  demonstrate ethical research and inquiry skills by understanding the social impact of information technology and the need for security, privacy and ethical implications in information systems usage  demonstrate academic and professional literacy skills by understanding the importance of and differences between information and computer literacy from a technical, social and business perspective.  demonstrate written communication skills by understanding basic information communication and technology (ICT) terminology for effective communication and applying it within a business environment  demonstrate comprehension of the implications of information system development and usage from a perspective of both different cultures and globally  demonstrate management planning and organisational skills through an awareness of the information systems discipline and profession  demonstrate sustainable practice skills in the information systems discipline by understanding the concepts of e-waste and green IT.Applicable graduate qualities and skills gained from this assessment instrument:  Ethical Research & Enquiry (Skill U1)  Problem Solving (Skill U2)  Academic, professional and digital literacy (Skill U3)  Written & Oral Communication (Skill U4)  Cultural Literacy (Skill U7)  Management, Planning & Org Skills (Skill U8)  Sustainable Practice (Skill U10) Online Presentations You will be given three (3) online activities that you will be required to create a presentation using Microsoft PowerPoint 2007, 2010 or 2013, including annotated speaker notes, throughout the semester. Each presentation should be the equivalent of a 7 ½ to 10 minute presentation in length. Each presentation will be worth 21 marks towards the final grade for this assessment item, with a further 4 marks for peer evaluation being awarded. The online activities will be made up of three (3) of the twelve (12) case study questions as outlined at the end of each study module in the study materials. External students will be designated three (3) case studies each, and the week that the presentations must be submitted, in the first week of the semester.. Students must use the Critical Thinking questions to be addressed within the presentation that are provided in the weekly student handouts and not the textbook. It is important that you complete the practical work for weeks 1 – 2 before attempting the in-class activities proposed. Online Presentation Structure Students must prepare their presentations so that they conform to the course StudyDesk presentation resources. These resources include, but are not limited to, presentation guidelines, marking scheme, appendix one, and various videos. Each online activity presentations set of slides should be structured as follows:  Title– outlining the full Case Study Name and Module  List of Topics  Case Study Summation – fully summarising the key concepts of the Case Study (including annotated speaker notes)  Case Study Critical Thinking Questions – fully answering the 5 Critical Thinking Questions from the weekly student handouts and not the textbook (including annotated speaker notes)  Summary of Presentation  Audience QuestionsMarking Guidelines This assignment will be marked out of 21. If all criteria are satisfied you will receive 21 marks. If not all criteria are met, part marks may be given. Check your own submission against these criteria before you submit. Completion of reviews will earn an extra 4 marks. Marks will be lost for each of the following:  Failure to complete the peer assessment rubric correctly, such as ticking more than one tick box or failing to tick an appropriate tick box in each assessment element.  Limited comments provided as feedback for the peer review (see instructions below for what is required in peer assessment comments). Where it is obvious that a student has completed a review without examining the necessary file, review marks will be removed. All submissions and reviews are candidates for random moderation. Where two reviews are conflicting, instructor moderation will be applied. A final mark out of 75 (scaled to a percentage out of 15%) will be awarded at the end of the semester. Peer Reviews For these activities you will be required to complete reviews of students' presentation activities for each for the three (3) activities. You will be asked to consider the criteria below when completing reviews. Be sure you are accurate in completing your reviews. In your comment at the end of the review take care to offer positive feedback and suggestions for improvement to your peers. They are learning, just as you are. You may describe how your presentation differed from theirs. The Praise-Instruct-Praise (PIP) method is a good way of providing feedback for these peer reviews. It is very helpful as it is constructive yet doesn't get people offside. So when reviewing external presentations - find something good to comment on, find an area for improvement, and end with praise. Marking Scheme The following peer marking criteria will be used to assess each online activity:Criteria Peer Assessment Check The presentation demonstrates good presentation structure. (2 marks) Check that the presentation is laid out in a professional manner using the online activity structure.  The presentation is laid out in a professional manner - the presentation contains ALL elements in the online activity structure clearly labelled and in the order outlined in the online activity guidelines. 2 MARKS  Presentation is mostly laid out in a professional manner - one or more of the presentation elements are not clearly labelled OR the presentation is missing one or more elements given in the online activity structure OR is presented out of the order outlined in the online activity guidelines. 1 MARK  Presentation is not laid out in a professional manner - the presentation clearly does not follow the given online activity structure and it is very difficult to determine what elements of the presentation have been included. 0 MARKS The presentation demonstrates good professional presentation style. (2 marks) Check that the presentation follows the font size, font colour, and background colour choice guidelines outlined in Appendix 1 for development of a professional PowerPoint presentation.  The presentation demonstrates good professional presentation style - showing good use of font size, font colour and slide background theme / colour. 2 MARKS  The presentation has one or more slides with professional style issues that at times makes it difficult to read and distracting to the audience - either with the choice of font size, font colour, or slide background theme / colour. 1 MARK  The presentation does not use suitable font size, font colour, and slide background theme / colour choices - this results is a presentation that is difficult to read and distracting to the audience. 0 MARKS The presentation demonstrates well thought out and written slides. (2 marks) Check that the wording on the presentation slides are succinct bullet points - 5 bullet points with 5 words per point (5 x 5) - (not whole paragraphs or sentences - such as including the whole critical thinking question on the slide) as outlined in Appendix 1 for development of a professional PowerPoint presentation.  The presentation demonstrates good professional development - showing appropriate succinct wording on ALL slides. 2 MARKS  The presentation has one or more slides that do not follow the guidelines for professional development - one or more of the slides exceeds the 5 x 5 rule and should have been split across 2 slides to avoid being too busy OR has the critical thinking questions included on the slide OR has whole sentences in the headings or bullet points on the slides, rather than stating it in the speaker notes. 1 MARK  •The presentation slides do not follow the guidelines for professional development - the information on the slides must have succinct wording in the heading and bullet points, relying more of the description in the speaker notes and must be split across 2 slides to avoid being too busy (5 x 5 rule). 0 MARKS The presentation slides demonstrate a good summation of the key concepts of the Case Study.
