SOFT6007 Class 26 ITS1 Lab

I spent a little bit of time with students concerned about their assessment result.

Students worked away on Assessment 2. No many seem to be taking on JavaScript just yet.


SOFT6008 Class 26

We discussed the assessment. Students made some fair points.

We also discussed plagiarism at length and what is allowed an what is not.

I don't propose to put a recording of today's class online. But it doesn't seem right that only I should have a copy. If anyone wants a copy I can e-mail an mp3.

SOFT6007 Assessment 1 results





The results are now available here.

Use the last 4 digits of your ID number to find your mark. If the number if digits shown is less than four it's because there were leading zeros.

I couldn't find all the ID numbers. If your's isn't there, don't be alarmed.

We looked at some more JavaScript. We saw loops, and rollovers, buttons, and getElementById.

There is no more JavaScript required to complete Assessment 2, whether it's an exam or a take-away exercise.

SOFT6008 Assessment 1 Results

The results for assessment 1 are now online. They are sorted by the last 4 digits of ID number. If there's only 3 it's because there's a leading zero.

I was disappointed by the results. They suggest that students are not as on top of things as I thought they were.

Please check that I have your dropbox shown below. If I don't there is a problem.

No class today because it's a holiday. But I want to keep the class numbering consistent. So we'll call the next one 23.
