This assignment can (and should!) be completed progressively (i.e. each week). There are ten (10) tasks, one for each week: these are detailed below and in the template.The assignment is marked out of 30 and forms 30% of your total course marks.Note that late penalties apply (5% of the total available marks per calendar day late or part thereof). Assignments received 14 days or more after the due date will not be marked and will receive zero. Students may apply for extensions but must providedocumentary evidence to support their request (for example, a medical certificate). Short extensions of one to two days may be considered if students include their nearly completed assignment (i.e. one or two tasks to yet be completed) in their extension request.It will be necessary for students to use online resources to complete this assignment,so please ensure you cite and reference any such materials using the Harvard format. Plagiarism detection will be used in this assessment. It is VERY important that you do not copy content directly from either the text or Internet resources: this assignment is to be in your own words. You will lose marks if you do not use your own words! Suspected plagiarism will result in the instigation of the student misconduct process.What do I need to do?Download the template [TO BE PROVIDED]. There are ten (10) tasks, one for each week: the tasks are detailed below (and in the template file). Each task requires you to collect and summarise one (1) publicly available online resource. The resource summary should be around 200-300 words. You should collect interesting and relevant resources that address the task. The resources should be easy to read and describe the topic/technology concisely and simply. The resources must be specific to the topic (i.e. just focus on a single technology or topicand not be about multiple topics). These can include (but are not limited to) online magazine/news articles, technical reports or documentation. Important - Academic resources such as journals, conference papers or books will generally be unsuitable for this assignment as they are generally not publicly

available, are not concise, are not necessarily easy to read and often don’t focus specifically on the assignment topic(s). The resources should be substantial (producing a 300 word summary from a 400 - 500 word resource is inappropriate) and only contain information directly pertinent to the task. You cannot use the resource more than once in the assignment. The textbook and sites such as, but not limited to, Wikipedia, Techtarget, and HowStuffWorks are not suitable resources.Your summary should briefly explain:-What the resource is about-Why you selected it-What are the main points or key information covered in the resource-Why the resource was useful.For each task, there is a table to complete in the template. Please fillin the information required and submit the document via this pageby the due date.HintsHint 1: Do a bit every weekThis assignment is not onerous, especially if you complete each weekly section as you complete each week of the course – that means writing around 300 words per week. However, it will be much harder if you try to complete all ten sections in weekeleven!Hint 2: Choose interesting and relevant resourcesYou will be assessed on the relevance of resources. Choose specialised, specific resources that helped you gain a deeper understanding of the topic area. Do not usegeneric web pages from sites like (but not limited to) Wikipedia, Techtarget and “How-Stuff-Works”. Web sites like these list and define topics and technologies and they are not appropriate. Slide-shows or PowerPoint presentations are also unsuitable. Make sure the resource can be linked to/accessed directly – i.e. it is a public resource on the web. Links/permalinks to CQU Library online resources such as journal papers, conference papers and textbooks are not suitable as they are not publicly accessible resources.Hint 3: Look at [LINK] these examples. Note the reasons why the excellent response gets the marks. Pay special attention to why the second example would result in an academic misconduct case and the potential for you for fail the assignment or the unit!!!
