Attendance Requirements
All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes - in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).
Recommended Student Time Commitment
Each 6-credit Undergraduate unit at CQUniversity requires an overall time commitment of an average of 12.5 hours of study per week, making a total of 150 hours for the unit.
Assessment Tasks
| Assessment Task | Weighting |
|---|---|
| 1. Practical Assessment | 15% |
| 2. Practical Assessment | 35% |
| 3. Online Test | 50% |
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%).

Assessment should be made industry-focused.
Realign the assessment to use real world applications.
Assessments have been made more industry-focused by allowing students to choose any Australian-based business for their assignment (including charities based in Australia).

The unit should cover use of AI in software development.
AI tools and technologies should be incorporated in the unit.
In Progress
On successful completion of this unit, you will be able to:
- Compare and contrast the key web development technologies available to the .NET developer
- Design a business-oriented web site that has a consistent look and feel
- Use an integrated suite of software tools in the development of a business-oriented web site
- Examine the issues involved in developing and maintaining a web site for a small business
- Assess the likely business impact of emerging web deployment technologies.
Australian Computer Society (ACS) recognises the Skills Framework for the Information Age (SFIA). SFIA is in use in over 100 countries and provides a widely used and consistent definition of ICT skills. SFIA is increasingly being used when developing job descriptions and role profiles.
