1. Task Description
Most topics of the study guide contain continuous assessment tasks that
form part of your assignments.
You will complete the continuous assessment tasks for Topics 1 to 3 as your submission
for assignment 1. In addition the continuous assessment for topic 3 will have to be
uploaded to your account on the infotech server. For your convenience, I have included
all of the continuous assessments as an appendix of this document.
2. Marking criteria
The following marking criteria should assist you in completing your assignment. Please
make sure that you address each of these items in your assignment. Have a look at the
marking spreadsheet provided in the Assignments folder of the MySCU site for additional
information.

Source code readability, accuracy (development).

3. Advice
You will need to start this assignment in the first week of semester. By working through your
tutorial exercises each week, you should have more than sufficient time to complete the
assignment by the due date.
4. More information
All written works for continuous assessment must be word-processed. Drawings and diagrams
should be word-processed, or images inserted into a word document. Files created in nonuniversity standard programs cannot be accepted, as the marker may not be able to view them.
If you need more information about completing this assignment, then you should contact your
lecturer or your tutor.
5. Original work
Your assignment must be your original work. Assignments form a major part of course work.
Exchange of ideas can be considered educationally valuable; however, excessive collaboration
will be regarded as plagiarism, which is a University offence. For example, the copying of
significant parts of a document, even if subsequently modified, is plagiarism. Such academic
dishonesty will be penalised in accordance with the University's rules and regulations.
You must not copy material from books, magazines, internet sources or other students’
assignments. Of course, you may include direct quotes from any source, but these must be
small (e.g. one sentence or one paragraph) and must be properly referenced, using the Harvard
Referencing Style.
The assessment process may require some students to attend an interview in order to explain
aspects of their assignment.
Plagiarism is strictly prohibited. If plagiarism is found, students may receive zero marks on
that piece of assessment item.
6. Identification
There is no need to hand in a hardcopy of this assignment. Ensuring that your name is in the
filename of the handed-in file will be sufficient identification.
7. Retain duplicate copy
Before submitting the assignment, you are advised to either photocopy or retain electronic
copies of original work. In the event of any uncertainty regarding the submission of assessment
items, you may be requested to reproduce a final copy.
8. Assignment submission

Time: Week 4, Friday 27th March 2020.
Location:
Internal, Online, Sydney/Melbourne/Perth: submit via "Submit Assignments
“folder" (on MySCU).
IBS and GXUST: as directed by local tutor.

File Naming conventions:
One zip file only with a filename = YourFirstInitialLastName_ISY10209_Ass1.zip
IMPORTANT NOTE: do not include any spaces or hyphens within your filename
as MySCU seems to reject files with special characters including spaces and
hyphens.
For assignment 1, click on the "Assignment Submission” folder in the MySCU site.
Upload your assignment to the Assignment 1 submission item. You will upload your
zipped folder of the continuous assessments 1-3 on or before the due date. Make sure
you wait for the upload to be complete - many students end up rushing
this and as a result submit a corrupted file.

9. Penalty for late submission
All assessment tasks submitted during the study period will normally be marked and returned
within two weeks of the required date of submission (provided that the assessment materials
have been submitted by the due date).
If you need an extension/special consideration for an assignment you will need to fill in the
"Special Consideration for Assessment" form. If the requested extension is for more
than 48 hours you will need to include some documentary proof of the reason you need the
extension (i.e. doctors certificate etc.). Remember that extensions will not be granted on due
dates of the assignments (except in exceptional situations) - get your request in before the
assignment is due.
To streamline and improve the special consideration process, new eForms have been
developed that will enable students to submit an application electronically via MyEnrolment
for:
o
o

Special Consideration for Assessment (extension and marking)
Special Exam Application

Extensions within 24 hours of submission or following the submission deadline will not be
granted (unless supported by a doctor’s certificate or where there are exceptional
circumstances – this will be at the unit assessor’s discretion and will be considered on a case
by case basis).
A penalty of 5% of the total available grade will accrue for each 24-hour period that an
assessment item is submitted late. Therefore, an assessment item worth 20 marks will have 1
mark deducted for every 24-hour period and at the end of 20 days will receive 0 marks.
Students who fail to submit following the guidelines in this Unit Information Guide will be
deemed to have not submitted the assessment item and the above penalty will be applied until
the specified submission guidelines are followed.
10. Marks and Feedback
All assessment materials submitted during the semester will normally be marked and returned
within two weeks of the required date of submission (provided that the assessment materials
have been submitted by the due date).

Marks will be made available to each student using MySCU Gradebook. Feedback
comments will also be available through the Gradebook.
11. Appendix
This contains all the continuous assessments associated with this assignment.

Topic 1 Continuous Assessment
During this session your major assignment (see Assignment 3 specifications)
will be to build a personal portfolio website to demonstrate your life/business/IT
skills. Each of topics of the study guide will bring you closer to being able to
produce this website. This topic’s continuous assessment forms part of your
assignment 1, due in week 4.
Create a new folder for your assignment 1 continuous assessments and name it with your
name and ISY10209_Ass1, e.g. bsmart_ISY10209_Ass1. This will be your work folder for
assignment 1.
Create another folder named ‘documents’ inside your work folder. This will be your documents
folder for Assignment 1.
You will be required to submit your work folder to your tutor as part of your assignment 1.
See the assignment folder on MySCU for additional information.
For this first continuous assessment:
1. The first file you will create is a Word document (.doc or .docx) containing a concept map
for your electronic portfolio (see Assignment 3 for details). You may use any software
you like for the concept map or even use pencil and paper (scanning the result and inserting
it in the document). The concept map should show all the possible things you want on your
web site. Save this file in your documents folder as: - your name and CA1_ConceptMap e.g.
bsmart_CA1_ConceptMap.doc(x).
2. The second file you will create is a storyboard for your Assignment 3 (look it up In the
Assignments folder of the MySCU website) homepage (templates for the storyboards are
also located in the Assignments Resources sub-folder of the Assignments folder of the
units MySCU website). This will also be submitted as a Word document. Whereas you do
not have the experience with designing much HTML yet, you will have some ideas as to
how you wish the home page of your electronic portfolio to look. This file should be saved
as: - your name and CA1_storyboard e.g. ‘bsmart_CA1_storyboard.doc(x)’ in your
documents folder. The storyboard should include:
• a sketch (or diagram) of the home page;
• a list of pages that it will link to;
• a description of the content on the home page (including text, graphics and any
other content); and
• page details, author, date, title, version etc.
3. Additionally, you will create an HTML page with the following content:
•
•
•

The document type definition
A title e.g. ‘Bill Smart CA1’ – follow this convention for the titles of CAs 1-7.
At least 3 paragraphs introducing yourself, the course you are studying,
what you hope to achieve during and after your studies. Be sure to include your
full name as part of the text, or in one of the headers if so desired.

•

Multiple headings (
...
, 
...
 etc.

•

All three types of lists examined in this topic (demonstrating your
knowledge) with at least 1 list contained within another list (nested lists), for
example an ordered list
within an unordered list.
A hyperlink to an external site (opening in a new tab/window so users are still
on your site - see the creating a HTML5 webpage video),
An email link.

•
•

Your page must validate with no errors.
The file name of your webpage should be your first initial, surname, and CA1 (e.g.
bsmart_CA1.html) and saved inside your work folder.
Additional video resources are available to assist you. See the How-to Video's folder in the
MySCU site for this unit. Of particular use to you in this topic are:

Topic 2 Continuous Assessment
During this session your major assignment (see Assignment 3 specifications)
will be to build a personal portfolio website to demonstrate your life/business/IT
skills. Each of topics of the study guide will bring you closer to being able to
produce this website. This topic’s continuous assessment forms part of your
assignment 1, due in week 4.
Save all the files for this exercise to the related folders, you created in CA1. You will be
required to submit this to your tutor as part of your assignment 1. See the assignment folder
on MySCU for additional information.
1. Copy the HTML page in your work folder that you have previously created in CA1.
Save this file as: - your name and CA2 (e.g. bsmart_CA2.html). This will be your new
home page for this continuous assessment.
2. Create a new folder in your work folder and name it css. Place all your external CSS
files in this folder. Name your external CSS file for this continuous assessment
‘styles_CA2.css’. You will need to link to this file (within your HTML) using a relative
addressing e.g. css/styles_CA2.css.
Demonstrate the use of all types of CSS on your HTML page that is: inline,
embedded and external. Use the CSS to create the following (all must be included):
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

At least two different text colours;
At least two different background colours (one applied to the entire webpage);
At least two different font-weight, -style and -size;
At least one font-family with four typefaces
Three differently aligned paragraphs
At least two different text-decorations
At least one class selector and one id selector
Change the bullet type on your unordered list to squares
Change the numbers on your ordered list to roman numerials
Use at least one div and one span.

2. Make sure to validate your HML and the external CSS file

Note: Do not use a black background for your HTML page. Black backgrounds are difficult to
read which in turn makes it difficult to mark (or print as you will find). Any pages with a black
background or any background that makes the text difficult to read will receive a poor mark.

Topic 3 Continuous Assessment
During this session your major assignment (see Assignment 3 for details) will
be to build a personal portfolio website to demonstrate your life/business/IT
skills. Each of topics of the study guide will bring you closer to being able to
produce this website. This topic’s continuous assessment forms part of your
assignment 1, due in week 4.
Save all the files for this exercise to folder you created in CA1. You will be required to submit
this to your tutor as part of your assignment 1. See the assignment folder on MySCU for
additional information.
1. Copy the HTML page in your work folder that you have previously created in CA2.
Save this file as: index.html. This will be your new home page for this continuous
assessment. This name has been used as when it is uploaded to the infotech server it
automatically open when the site is opened in a browser (due to the design of the
server) so instead of entering the entire address (including page name) only the site
address need be entered to the browser
Copy the CSS file in your css folder that you have previously created in CA2. Save
it as : - styles_CA3.css. You will need to link to this file using a relative address e.g.
css/styles_CA3.css.
Create another folder inside your work folder and name it ‘images’. Place all your
image files in this folder (including your background images). You will need to link to
these files using relative addresses e.g. images/example.jpg from a web page or in the
case of background image referenced in your css file ../images/example.jpg.
2. Find several images (.jpg, .gif or .png - either your own or copyright free from the
Web) to use in enhancing your web page from CA2 (note at least three images
MUST be used). Display the images on your HTML page and make sure to include
the src, alt, height, and width attributes. At least one image should be a thumbnail link
to the full-size image. You may reuse these files in subsequent CAs if you wish by
using relative addresses (Note: your images should be in a folder of their own
labelled images - use relative addressing in your web pages).
3. Use background-image on your HTML page using CSS. Make sure that the text on
your page does not merge with (or become lost in) the background.
4. Add a hyperlink to the bottom of your index.html page, this link should use the
absolute address of your website as both the text and target e.g.
http://infotech.scu.edu.au/~bsmart10
This will assist with marking the on-line portion of your assignment.
5. Create a navigation bar similar to the textbooks Figure 4.20 (or if so desired you can
use images for the hyperlinks). Create two additional HTML pages that you will

include in your assignment 3 to link to/from your page to e.g.
‘bsmart_CA3_resume.html’ and ‘bsmart_CA3_web_skills.html’.
The content for these pages may be developed later however they should at minimum,
use the same external CSS file and have an identical navigation bar (allowing
navigation between each page in this continuous assessment). Additionally, all pages
must implement the same background. They also at minimum should display the same
background image you may reuse these files in subsequent CAs if you wish.
Placeholder links (in the navigation bar) to any pages you have not yet created should
use a null link e.g. href=”#”. This is a link, which directs the browser to the top of the
current page.
6. Validate all of your HTML and CSS.
7.

Upload your index, resume and web_skills HTML pages to the infotech server. You
will also have to upload the folders css and images (they should only contain the
appropriate files). Does it work as expected? Make sure to view the result in several
browsers (Fire Fox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera or Chrome).

This Continuous Assessment completes your assignment 1. Be sure to read the instructions
