This post is about lessons that have to be done by the students who are doing their 7010 Computer Studies where they have to learn topic on the System Analysis. This lesson I found out is fully used in the 7010/02 project but not in the examination paper 7010/01.

Computer Studies 7010/02 Project

January 21, 2009 at 9:13 pm (Assignment for PS 4207)

This post is to summarized the guidelines of marking for the Computer Studies 7010/02 project. This guideline was extracted from the Cambridge website at;

www.cie.org.uk/

On this guideline, it mentioned on the slightly increase of quality of project done by the students compared to the previous year. However it mentioned that project which is based on a word-processing / DTP projects of a theoretical nature seems to get the lowest grades. Therefore it is important for the candidate’s to select a suitable project and not the one which is too complex.

This guideline also suggested the framework for Documentation of the project which must be followed and done by the students.

It is important to note that candidates should write their own documentation to reflect the individuality of their problem, and not copied from textbook or other sources.

It stated that areas of relative weakness in the candidate’s documentation included setting objectives, hardware, algorithms, testing and a lack of reference . Teachers should note that marks can only be awarded when there is clear evidence in the documentation.

It also recommended that when marking the project, teachers must indicate in the appropriate place where credit is being awarded and where deduction is made. Teachers must make sure that all the tasks example algorithms and test plans are properly documented in order to get credit.
