EECS Student Handbook 2023/24

Most of EECS submissions will be via QMPlus module pages.

You should follow the module organisers instructions for any QMPlus assessment submissions. 

Pay close attention to the instructions given.  Check the file format requested, any word length required, file sizes, if group submission or individual submission is required.

Where the submission permits a draft submission uploaded prior to final submission you must make sure you formally submit . The submission may include  a submit button for the final submission to be formally accepted. If you do not formally submit and the file shows as Draft (not submitted) the assessment may not be marked by the module organiser, zero fail will be obtained.  If a Draft (not submitted) file is uploaded prior to the deadline and is marked a minimum 5% penalty will be applied. If the Draft (not submitted) file is submitted after the deadline but before the cut off date and is marked, the relevant late days penalty PLUS a minimum 5% penalty will be applied

QMPlus submitted assessments are subject to the School late penalty policy.  Any submissions received after the set deadline will receive a late penalty.

Please note, the QM+ late time indication is not the full and final penalty to be applied. Example, it may show as 1 day late, however, the actual timestamp will be 1 day and X seconds,  in this case 2 late days penalties will be applied.

QMPlus group submissions.

You may be required to join a group prior to submission, it is your responsibility to ensure you are in the correct group prior to submission. Not joining a group may result in not receiving marks for an assessment.  It is good practice to ensure all group members names are listed on a group submission unless you are specifically asked to not include names.

If you have issues with group members contribution you should inform the module organiser or demonstrators.
