The report should document in detail your individual approach, work, results, and justified

answers to the stated problems.

While you are strongly encouraged to discuss this assignment with other students and with the

teaching staff to better understand the concepts, the assignment is to be submitted under your

you played at least a substantive role in the conception stage.

 You should not use results from other students in preparing your solutions.

 You should not take credit for computer code or graphics that were generated by other

students.

 You should also not directly share your solutions with other students. The teaching staff

will check for similarities and you should be prepared to explain your answers and

respond to other related questions that may be asked.

 You should also not use any other resources (including textbooks and websites) without

explicitly acknowledging them and being able to explain their inclusion.

Assignments should have a title page with your name and student number clearly stated. Do

NOT use the standard assignment coversheet as it gets flagged by Turnitin as plagiarised

material.

You must complete the Turnitin declaration when submitting the assignment.

of this unit must be properly referenced (in-text and end-text) using the APA format.
