ABSTRACT
This paper discusses the
assessment strategy used for student group projects in an integrated
capstone course for the Information Systems major at a South African
university. The course offers students the opportunity to analyse, design
and develop systems in a real-world environment. The practical nature of
the course combined with the added complexity of group work, necessitates
varied and multiples assessment approaches. The assessment strategy
applied in this course has been developed and refined over a period of
three years and will be presented in this paper.
Keywords: student projects, group work, assessment, measurement |
