Timelines and Expectations
Students are required to analyze the weekly lecture material of topics 1 to 8, based on the classification given in (a) and create concise content analysis summaries for the theoretical concepts contained in the course lecture slides. The content analysis for each topic should not exceed approximately four (4) A4 sides for the paper if those topics content were printed.
In addition, students need to complete the selected questions from the problem sheet associated with each week from 1 to 8, based on the classification given in (b). The selected questions from the problem sheet are given in Appendix A.
- Each student is required to submit the content from three topics. The specific topics depend on your surname:
Surnames starting with A – G Topics 4, 6 & 8
Surnames starting with H – Z Topics 3, 5 & 7
- Each student is required to submit the solution to the questions (see Appendix A) from the problem sheet from three topics. The specific topics depend on your surname:
Surnames starting with A – G Topics 3, 5 & 7
Surnames starting with H – Z Topics 4, 6 & 8
Where the lab content or information contained in technical articles from the Internet or books helps to fully describe the lecture slide content, discussion of such theoretical articles or discussion for the lab material should be included in the content analysis ePortfolio.
Suggestions as to possible inclusions in your content analysis ePortfolio will appear in weekly Work Plan documents on Moodle.
The ultimate aim of this assessment task is to help ITECH1102 students to fully comprehend the course material and hence help them to pass tests and the examination.
Mahara ePortfolio
Students are required to create their content analysis and problem sheet documentation as an ePortfolio in Mahara.
Each week’s topic should be on a separate ePortfolio page in order to separate the content into logical sections.

- ePortfolio problem sheet page for Topic 3
- ePortfolio content analysis page for Topic 4
- ePortfolio problem sheet page for Topic 5
- ePortfolio content analysis page for Topic 6
- ePortfolio problem sheet page for Topic 7
- ePortfolio content analysis page for Topic 8
By the end of week 10 (due date) all students should submit their content analysis and problem sheet ePortfolio pages through Moodle for marking.
