Plagiarism is the unacknowledged use of another person’s ideas, words or work. The work submitted by a candidate, if not his or her own, must make clear acknowledgment of the work of others by means, for example, of bibliographic notes or the use of quotation marks with acknowledgment of the original author. Plagiarism may embrace more than a candidate copying the work of others and presenting it as his or her own in dissertation, projects, essays or other submitted work. It also includes reproducing an author’s written material from memory in the examination room in verbatim or near form without acknowledgment. In short, students must not pass off the written works of others as their own either inside or outside the examination room. B. Methods To Avoid Plagiarism by Students 1. Students should be informed of the consequences of plagiarisms especially in term papers, group projects, report etc. 2. They should be shown the methods in the acknowledgment of another person’s work or idea, e.g. the work to be within quotation marks followed by in brackets, the author’s name and year of publication. The source is then cited in the bibliography section. 3. They should be shown the methods of expressing ideas in their own words and not to copy word for word from a text. 4. In a group project, students should write down the names of the members of the groups to indicate a common source of the data. However, the use and interpretation of the data must be in each student’s own words. He or she must do the write-up individually without reference to others in the group except where due acknowledgement is made. BSc(Hons) in Network and Mobile Computing (BNMCI) -7- 5. To discourage plagiarism, the title page of all assignments presented for assessment must include the following statement and be signed by the student : “ I declare that this is my own work except where due references are made”. C. Procedure for handling Plagiarism 1. 2. 3. 4. The lecturer/tutor refers the piece of work to Head of the Department / Dean of Faculty; If the student is guilty of plagiarism then a grade of zero will be given for that piece of work; The student will be informed in writing of this decision; The student has the right to appeal through proper consultation with HOP/PO. Academic Dishonesty Procedures on the handling of Academic Dishonesty Committed by a student:1. A suspected Academic Dishonesty (AD) act is one by a student or candidate who in doing so is suspected of cheating in a test, a project, an assignment, a final examination or a component of an assessment that contributes marks to a course evaluation. 2. The evidence of the AD act is then sent to the Examinations Centre/Unit together with a report by the lecturer/officer. The collated report by the Exams Centre is then sent to the relevant School according to the subject involved. (with a copy of the notice sent to the V.P. Academic Affairs and the Dean of the Faculty in which the student is enrolled. 3. The details of the report are as given in the Academic Dishonesty Form issued by the Examinations Centre. 4.

After the evidence had been obtained, the student under suspicion of AD, should be allowed to complete the test or examination. However, no extra time is given to the student concerned. BSc(Hons) in Network and Mobile Computing (BNMCI) -8- 6. The student suspected of AD is instructed to contact the officer-in-charge of AD, in the particular Faculty (as per the examinations paper) after the particular examinations paper at the latest or by the next working day. 7. The officer-in-charge of AD will then interview the student for his/her explanation on the AD. The date and time of the AD hearing is then set. (The date of the AD hearing is normally set as soon as possible or in the first week of the new semester if the AD was committed during the final semester examinations.) 8. The following documents are prepared by the officer in-charge for the Faculty Academic Dishonesty Committee’s (F.A.D.C) hearing: (a) a report by the invigilator/officer containing the evidence; (b) materials such as question paper, colour of answer booklet and loose paper on that examination day; (c) a report, a summary of the interview, a sample of the student’s handwriting if relevant, whether the materials confiscated are relevant for the examinations etc. by the officer in-charge of AD; (d) written statement by the student (including a plan of his/her sitting position in the examination venue); (e) the student’s file; (f) any other matters that may help the Faculty Academic Dishonesty Committee (F.A.D.C.) in its deliberation. 9.

Course Descriptions CSC2203 Introduction to Programming (4cr.) This is a first course in programming intended mainly for students on interdisciplinary and joint degree programmes. Although no previous computing knowledge is assumed, it takes into account both the varying levels of previous exposure to computing of the students and also their necessarily diverse interests. This module promotes a methodical approach to program design and development using C programming language. The aim is to engender a responsible approach to the process of creating well-designed, fully tested and documented software. CSC2205 Object-Oriented Programming (4cr.) This module aims to expose the student to the understanding of abstraction and modularity through the introduction of object-oriented programming and a popular OOP language. An implementation of GUI based object-oriented operations using Java applets and Java application is the main focus of attention. An introduction to object-oriented software design is also included CSC2211 Internet Technology (3cr.) This module involves introducing students to Internet and its basic applications. It provides students with understanding on Internet resources and connections, client/server sites, URL, HTML, Gropher, USENET, E-mails, Mail List and remote login (Telnet, FTP, Archie). At the later stage of the course, students will be taught on HTML, XHTML with Cascading Style Sheet, DTML, Internet security issues in Ecommerce, and also the future trends of Internet. CSC3205 Intelligent Systems (3cr.) Pre-requisite: CSC2203 The purpose of this module is to provide an understanding of the concept of intelligent systems. The analysis of intelligent systems encounters two sets of issue, those related to the use of Artificial Intelligence techniques and those concerned with the deployment of autonomous software.
