Topics include interaction design, virtual reality, ubiquitous computing, and more. The essay will be graded based on criteria such as a clear introduction and conclusion, critical analysis, structure, presentation, and references. Students must submit both a soft and hard copy of their essay before the deadline to receive full marks.
Report writing 1
This document provides guidelines for writing a report on a research study. It outlines the typical sections included in a report such as the introduction, design of the study, results and discussion. It describes the content that should be included in each section, such as the theoretical background in the introduction and the methodology, data collection and analysis in the design of the study section. The document also provides direction on formatting aspects like the cover page, preface, list of tables, abbreviations, and references. Overall, the document serves as a template to help structure a report to clearly communicate the purpose, methodology, findings and conclusions of a research study.
Blog project media and rubric2
This document outlines the requirements and scoring rubric for a blog project. Students must comment on 2-3 blogs, presenting their thoughts and ideas from the articles.

This document provides a summary of a student assignment on a disease pathogen. The student received an overall mark of 68. Their literature search and search strategy were adequate but lacked full encompassment. They provided an excellent introduction covering the pathogen, disease outcomes, epidemiology, and risk factors. Their figures on virulence factors and host defense mechanisms included excellent detail and integration of evidence. They provided excellent descriptions of standard treatment and prevention techniques but lacked detail on treatment failure and new prevention strategies. The referencing and use of sources was good but some sources were superseded and too many were secondary.
Coursework Data Interpretation
The document provides guidance for summarizing the results of a field data collection investigation. It outlines three levels of summary, from a brief description of results to a detailed description with clear reasons for results and links drawn between different data. Past examiners noted the best investigations used a variety of techniques to describe, explain data, and identify links between data collected. They also linked key points back to the original title and came to a sound conclusion that answered the original questions. The conclusion should return to original ideas, use useful data to answer questions, say if hypotheses were correct, sum up main points, and link the investigation back to textbook examples.

Assessment Task
Your Sydney HQ is developing a new marketing team with team members located in New York, Beijing and Mumbai. This will necessitate the establishment of a virtual team spread over four different time zones to use both synchronous (real time) and asynchronous (not concurrent) communication. A number of the team have expressed concerns about how it will all work, and meetings might be scheduled when one part of the team is about to go to lunch, while the other part is asleep.
To help 'sell' the idea to the team, your boss, the Marketing Director, is planning a virtual meeting with all team members. She is aware of the concerns and knows how important the presentation will be in creating a favourable association with virtual teams, as well as a good opportunity to build engagement, trust and candour among the team members.
To prepare for the virtual meeting she has asked you to: (i) evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of synchronous and asynchronous communication, and (ii) develop recommendations on how to use both synchronous and asynchronous communication tools, to not only be productive, but to maintain positive working relationships.
Please note: Part 1 will be presented as a memo. Part 2 will be presented as five (5) Powerpoint slides.
Persuasion aims to influence other people’s behaviours and attitudes. Successful persuasion shows readers ‘what’s in it for them’. Persuasive writing is one of the main types of academic writing. At work, some of the persuasive documents you might have to write are proposals, offers to clients, and memos suggesting alternative methods or new ways of doing particular tasks.
Persuasive writing has all the features of analytical writing (that is, information plus reorganising the information), with the addition of your own point of view. Most essays at university are persuasive, and there is a persuasive element in at least the discussion and conclusion of a research article. Points of view in academic writing can include an argument, a recommendation, interpretation of findings or evaluation of the work of others.
In persuasive writing, each claim you make needs to be supported by some evidence, for example a reference to research findings or published sources. The kinds of instructions for a persuasive assignment include: argue, evaluate, discuss, take a position.
Please follow these guidelines to complete the assessment:
1. To help reach your own point of view on the facts or ideas:
· read some other points of view on the topic. Who do you feel is the most convincing?
· look for patterns in the data or references. Where is the evidence strongest? ◦
· list several different inte ...
