Course Aims This course takes an integrated approach to managing projects, exploring both technical and managerial challenges. The course will provide you with tools to improve your ability to plan, implement and manage activities to accomplish specific organisational objectives in often complex and challenging work environments. The Project Management Standards (e.g. PMBOK) are included in the course to comprehensively identify the critical knowledge areas that project managers should understand. Course Learning Outcomes After successfully completing this course, you should be able to: Learning Outcome EA Stage 1 Competencies 1. Translate from organisational strategy into project deliverables PE1.5, PE2.4 2. Formulate project scope PE1.5, PE2.4 3. Select and apply project management methods PE1.3, PE2.1, PE2.2 4. Integrate and justify project plans PE3.6, PE2.3 5. Evaluate progress and interpret success in projects PE3.4, PE3.2 Teaching Strategies The online lectures are designed to give students maximum flexibility. The course will cover the terminology and core concepts and theories in Project Management to help you develop a range of skills, such as managing project teams, project schedules, budgets as well as being aware of strategic topics, different environments, cultures and ethics of projects and community issues. The lectures and assessment tasks are developed to build on the lecture topics using examples taken from industry to show how the theory is applied in practice. Group work is extensive, and a course demonstrator is allocated to each student group to mentor the team throughout the term. Participation in group meetings has been found to be a major indicator of overall student success. Additional Course Information The course, and the Course Learning Outcomes (CLO) listed above, are structured according to Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives, from the most basic to instill Knowledge, moving on to Understanding it, then Applying it and Analysing results, and finally the most challenging which are to Synthesise new knowledge and learn to Evaluate information for ourselves. Thus CLO 1-3 are more basic, while CLO 4 and 5 are the most challenging. GSOE9820 // Term 1, 2022 // published at 10-02-2022 © UNSW Sydney, 2022 5 The course aims to always provide students with Knowledge and Understanding, before asking students to carry out something more complex like Analysis or Evaluation. Different assignments deal with different kinds of Educational Objectives, such that for example individual quizzes are used to assess Knowledge, while a team assignment assess the integration of a project plan (which is a kind of Synthesis). To achieve high marks in the course students must succeed at all the different kinds of these educational objectives, from the basic ones to the most challenging. The course is a possible pathway for Project Management Institute (PMI) certification since the contents of the course, terminologies used and exposure to several real-world cases will support your preparations. It also provides an opportunity to be considered as a future course demonstrator, who are selected from students in the cohort who achieve a high level of all-round success.

Successful aspects of the course that have been kept: Practical assignment planning a realistic project TBL workshop Large demonstrator team and many opportunities for personalized support Excellence in guest lecturers and panelists GSOE9820 // Term 1, 2022 // published at 10-02-2022 © UNSW Sydney, 2022 11 Submission of Assessment Tasks Assessment submission and marking criteria Should the course have any non-electronic assessment submission, these should have a standard School cover sheet. All submissions are expected to be neat and clearly set out. Your results are the pinnacle of all your hard work and should be treated with due respect. Presenting results clearly gives the marker the best chance of understanding your method; even if the numerical results are incorrect. Marking guidelines for assignment submissions will be provided at the same time as assignment details to assist with meeting assessable requirements. Submissions will be marked according to the marking guidelines provided. Late policy Work submitted late without an approved extension by the course coordinator or delegated authority is subject to a late penalty of 20 percent (20%) of the maximum mark possible for that assessment item, per calendar day, for a minimum of zero marks. The late penalty is applied per calendar day (or part thereof), including weekends and public holidays, that the assessment is overdue. Work submitted after the ‘deadline for absolute fail’ is not accepted and a mark of zero will be awarded for that assessment item. For example: Your course has an assessment task worth a total of 30 marks (Max Possible Mark) You submit the assessment 2 days after the due date The assessment is marked as usual and achieves a score of 20 marks (Awarded Mark) The late policy is applied using Late Mark = Awarded Mark - (Days*Penalty per Day)*Max Possible Mark. Your adjusted final score is 8 marks (20 - ((2*0.2)*30)). For some assessment items, a late penalty may not be appropriate. These are clearly indicated in the course outline, and such assessments receive a mark of zero if not completed by the specified date. Examples include: 1. Weekly online tests or laboratory work worth a small proportion of the subject mark, or 2. Online quizzes where answers are released to students on completion, or 3. Professional assessment tasks, where the intention is to create an authentic assessment that has an absolute submission date, or 4. Pass/Fail assessment tasks. Examinations You must be available for all quizzes, tests and examinations. For courses that have final examinations, these are held during the University examination periods: February for Summer Term, May for T1, August for T2, and November/December for T3. Please visit myUNSW for Provisional Examination timetable publish dates. For further information on GSOE9820 // Term 1, 2022 // published at 10-02-2022 © UNSW Sydney, 2022 12 exams, please see the Exams webpage. Special Consideration If you have experienced an illness or misadventure beyond your control that will interfere with your assessment performance, you are eligible to apply for Special Consideration prior to submitting an assessment or sitting an exam. UNSW now has a Fit to Sit / Submit rule, which means that if you attempt an exam or submit a piece of assessment, you are declaring yourself fit enough to do so and cannot later apply for Special Consideration. For details of applying for Special Consideration and conditions for the award of supplementary assessment, please see the information on UNSW’s Special Consideration page. Please note that students will not be required to provide any documentary evidence to support absences from any classes missed because of COVID-19 public health measures such as isolation. UNSW will not be insisting on medical certificates from anyone deemed to be a positive case, or when they have recovered. Such certificates are difficult to obtain and put an unnecessary strain on students and medical staff. Applications for special consideration will be required for assessment and participation absences – but no documentary evidence for COVID-19 illness or isolation will be required. Special Consideration Outcomes Assessments have default Special Consideration outcomes. The default outcome for the assessment will be advised when you apply for Special Consideration. Below is the list of possible outcomes: GSOE9820 // Term 1, 2022 // published at 10-02-2022 © UNSW Sydney, 2022 13 Outcome Explanation Example Time extension Student provided more time to submit the assessment e.g. 1 more week of time granted to submit a report Supplementary assessment Student provided an alternate assessment at a later date/time e.g. a supplementary exam is scheduled during the supplementary exam period of the term Substitute item The mark for the missed assessment is substituted with the mark of another assessment e.g. mark for Quiz 1 applied also applied as mark for Quiz 2, meaning if a student achieved a mark of 20/30 for Quiz 1 and was granted Special Consideration for Quiz 2, a mark of 20/30 would be applied for Quiz 2, etc Exemption All course marks are recalculated excluding this assessment and its weighting e.g. The course has an assessment structure of: - Assignments 30%, - Lab report 30%, - Final Exam 40%. If the Lab report is missed and student is granted Special Consideration, then the assessment structure may be reweighted as follows: - Assignments 50% - Final Exam 50% as though the Lab report did not exist Non-standard Course Coordinator is contacted for the outcome when special consideration is granted as the outcome differs on a case-by-case basis e.g. typical for group assessments where time extension supplementary assessment could be granted to the group member, time extension could be granted to the whole group, etc. Clarify with your Course Convenor for GSOE9820 // Term 1, 2022 // published at 10-02-2022 © UNSW Sydney, 2022 14 Academic Honesty and Plagiarism UNSW has an ongoing commitment to fostering a culture of learning informed by academic integrity. All UNSW students have a responsibility to adhere to this principle of academic integrity. Plagiarism undermines academic integrity and is not tolerated at UNSW. Plagiarism at UNSW is defined as using the words or ideas of others and passing them off as your own. Plagiarism is a type of intellectual theft. It can take many forms, from deliberate cheating to accidentally copying from a source without acknowledgement. UNSW has produced a website with a wealth of resources to support students to understand and avoid plagiarism, visit: student.unsw.edu.au/plagiarism. The Learning Centre assists students with understanding academic integrity and how not to plagiarise. They also hold workshops and can help students one-on-one. You are also reminded that careful time management is an important part of study and one of the identified causes of plagiarism is poor time management. Students should allow sufficient time for research, drafting and the proper referencing of sources in preparing all assessment tasks. If plagiarism is found in your work when you are in first year, your lecturer will offer you assistance to improve your academic skills. They may ask you to look at some online resources, attend the Learning Centre, or sometimes resubmit your work with the problem fixed. However more serious instances in first year, such as stealing another student’s work or paying someone to do your work, may be investigated under the Student Misconduct Procedures. Repeated plagiarism (even in first year), plagiarism after first year, or serious instances, may also be investigated under the Student Misconduct Procedures. The penalties under the procedures can include a reduction in marks, failing a course or for the most serious matters (like plagiarism in an honours thesis) even suspension from the university. The Student Misconduct Procedures are available here: www.gs.unsw.edu.au/policy/documents/studentmisconductprocedures.pdf GSOE9820 // Term 1, 2022 // published at 10-02-2022 © UNSW Sydney, 2022 15 Academic Information Credit points Course credit is calculated in Units-Of-Credit (UOC). The normal workload expectation for one UOC is approximately 25 hours per term. This includes class contact hours, private study, other learning activities, preparation and time spent on all assessable work. Most coursework courses at UNSW are 6 UOC and involve an estimated 150 hours to complete, for both regular and intensive terms. Each course includes a prescribed number of hours per week (h/w) of scheduled face-to-face and/or online contact. Any additional time beyond the prescribed contact hours should be spent in making sure that you understand the lecture material, completing the set assignments, further reading, and revising for any examinations. On-campus class attendance **T1-2022 UPDATE** - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Public distancing conditions must be followed for all face-to-face classes. To ensure this, only students enrolled in those classes will be allowed in the room. No over-enrolment is allowed in face-to-face classes. Students enrolled in online classes can swap their enrolment from online to on-campus classes by Sunday, Week 1. Please refer to your course's Microsoft Teams and Moodle sites for more information about class attendance for in-person and online class sections/activities. Your health and the health of those in your class is critically important. You must stay at home if you are sick or have been advised to self-isolate by NSW health or government authorities. Current alerts and a list of hotspots can be found here. You will not be penalised for missing a face-to-face activity due to illness or a requirement to self-isolate. We will work with you to ensure continuity of learning during your isolation and have plans in place for you to catch up on any content or learning activities you may miss. Where this might not be possible, an application for fee remission may be discussed. Further information is available on any course Moodle or Teams site. In certain classroom and laboratory situations where physical distancing cannot be maintained or there is a high risk that it cannot be maintained, face masks will be considered mandatory PPE for students and staff.
