In this way, students will learn how to “solve the problem” through asking and analyzing. Jigsaw Groups: students are asked to group into three(3) and every member of the group has sub- task to perform to solve a main task. Case-based Learning: Students are given a technical case/situation and they have to identify the appropriate methods to design an appropriate solution. Group and Individual Presentation: Students in a group are required to present in class their progress. Other groups should also have to critic ND evaluate the presentation.
TLA 2: Situation: Outside Classroom Group Activities Major Focus: ILL 4, 5, 6, and 7 Minor Focus: ILL 1, 2 and 3 Additional help provided outside official class time: Roundtable Presentation: A group of three(3) must present to another group of three(3) of their initial progress where they will evaluate and learn from each other’s experiences and topics. A group is required to have at least one(l) group to evaluate for the roundtable, different group every week.

Towards the end: What did I find/learned? Also at the end: What are the main points left unanswered after this activity? Software Design and Development: Student is required to design and develop an application implementing latest trends and concepts in computing. Moreover, the student must prove that they were able to develop application where different tools, cuisines and methods in computing are implemented.

This means it is important to know the differences between quoting, paraphrasing and summarizing. It is also important to know how to cite material properly. Most papers will have references at the end of every paragraph except in sections that represent data description (secondary data must be sourced), analysis, and interpretation of material presented and conclusions. Plagiarism is a form of cheating, but there are other forms as well.
Cheating in the capstone courses often takes the form of not contributing one’s fair share to the team effort, that is, not completing assignments, being late with assignments, writing progress reports that are not really done by you or by the team, missing team meetings and not communicating with your teammates. Plagiarism and cheating can result in failing the course. Your paper may be analyzed using plagiarism software; which specifically identifies material taken from other sources, and the names of those sources. Plagiarism is a very serious matter, which will have a significant effect on your grade. Submission and Deadlines All deliverables should be submitted on the specified deadline. Late work will accrue grading penalties. Any work a student submits after the due date is subject to a corresponding point deduction. Work will only be accepted up to 5 days late, unless prior arrangements are made with the instructor. There is always the potential for extenuating circumstance, and a student will not be penalized for late work in these situations provided there is contact and authorization of the instructor and the adviser to discuss possible options.
