2) Your full MS Visual Studio project folder.
Put (1) and (2) together in one zipped file called ID_FullName.
Please be clear that the unit coordinator will not be responsible for a student who is unable to submit successfully working copies of files in their submission. The student will have no further chance to submit files or receive any remarking if this is the case. Make sure you have fully tested your application before zipping and submitting. Your submission will be unzipped and placed into the marker’s folder directory for marking, so keep this in mind.
If there is any exceptional case where a student’s project is unable to be marked, which should not occur, the project will be marked out 10 and the student will receive this mark out 10 as the final mark.
You will submit the zipped file at the “Project folder on Moodle”. This form is shown to you when you click on “Project” from the Assessment area. The form page contains the terms and conditions of the project such as declaring that you have not plagiarised, have kept a copy of your work, etc. In uploading and submitting your zip file, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions, which you are being bound by in submitting work for the project and receiving a mark for it.
