Assessment

In this subject, students are permitted to use AI technologies in an ethical and transparent manner to generate materials for background research and self-study. Only assistive use is permitted. Content generated by AI technologies or other sources presented as the student’s own work is considered to be academic misconduct as per the UTS Student Rules on misconduct.
1. Any use of generative AI tools must be acknowledged by citing their use through referencing in students’ work
2. Students must provide all interactions with the generative AI tool, including prompts and responses, as an

Appendix to submitted work (including assessments)

It is students’ responsibility to check and verify the accuracy and integrity of the information used, and to rewrite any text provided by AI or other sources in their own words.

Students may be asked to participate in a viva voce assessment to confirm or clarify their work and/or marks.

For the contribution of subjects taken in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) or Master of Professional Engineering to the Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies, see the faculty's Graduate Attributes and the Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies webpage.

Assessment: faculty procedures and advice

Marking criteria

Marking criteria for each assessment task is available on the Learning Management System: Canvas.

Extensions

When, due to extenuating circumstances, you are unable to submit or present an assessment task on time, please contact your subject coordinator before the assessment task is due to discuss an extension. Extensions may be granted up to a maximum of 5 days (120 hours). In all cases you should have extensions confirmed in writing.

Special consideration

If you believe your performance in an assessment item or exam has been adversely affected by circumstances beyond your control, such as a serious illness, loss or bereavement, hardship, trauma, or exceptional employment demands, you may be eligible to apply for Special Consideration.

Late penalty

For Graded subjects:

Work submitted late without an approved extension is subject to a late penalty of 10 per cent of the total available marks deducted per calendar day that the assessment is overdue (e.g. if an assignment is out of 40 marks, and is submitted (up to) 24 hours after the deadline without an extension, the student will have four marks deducted from their awarded mark). Work submitted after five calendar days is not accepted and a mark of zero is awarded.

For some assessment tasks a late penalty may not be appropriate – these are clearly indicated in the subject outline.

Such assessments receive a mark of zero if not completed by/on the specified date. Examples include:

a. weekly online tests or laboratory work worth a small proportion of the subject mark, or
b. online quizzes where answers are released to students on completion, or 
c. professional assessment tasks, where the intention is to create an authentic assessment that has an absolute submission date, or
d. take-home papers that are assessed during a defined time period, or
e. pass/fail assessment tasks.

For Pass/Fail subjects:

Work submitted late without an approved extension will only be assessed at the subject coordinator’s discretion.

Students who do not submit assessment tasks by the due dates may be referred to the Responsible Academic Officer under Student Rule 3.8.2, and a fail result may be recorded for the subject.

Request a review of a result

If you believe an error may have been made in the calculation of your result in an assessment task or the final result for the subject, it is possible to request a review of a result with the Subject Coordinator within five (5) working days of the date of release of the result.

Academic integrity

Academic integrity is about demonstrating honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility in your studies and assessments. Studying at UTS and being part of our community means maintaining these values and acting with academic integrity at all times. This is in line with expectations for professional practice in Engineering and IT.

Guide to practising academic integrity
As a UTS student, when you create something original, credit others and collaborate with care, you act with academic integrity:

Create something original. This means doing all your own work from start to finish, submitting work that is original for that assessment and being honest about any data or results.

Credit others. You need to acknowledge and reference the source of any ideas, data or materials you use or adapt in your work.

Collaborate with care. Make sure you do group work according to the guidelines from your tutor, lecturer or supervisor, study with your classmates and friends with care and keep your assessment and study notes just for you.

If you are feeling confused about academic integrity, it’s okay, just ask! We are here to help you understand academic integrity and do your assessments with confidence:

Explore the guide to practising academic integrity, including dos and don’ts.
Complete the academic integrity self-paced tutorial and quiz.
Get help with academic skills, such as writing, researching and referencing, and other support for life outside of the classroom.

Talk to your tutor, lecturer, subject coordinator or UTS help services if you are unsure about anything academic integrity related.

Generative AI (GenAI) and academic integrity

In the Faculty of Engineering and IT subjects, unless otherwise instructed by the Subject Coordinator, you are permitted to use AI technologies, such as ChatGPT or DALL-E, to generate materials for background research and self-study. Only assistive use is permitted. Content generated by AI technologies or other sources presented as your own work is considered to be academic misconduct as per the UTS Student Rules on misconduct.

There are a few things you must do to ensure you are maintaining academic integrity:

Check the rules for if and how you can use GenAI in your subjects and assessments via this subject outline or your subject sites in Canvas (rules will differ between subjects, so make sure you check each subject). If you are not sure, check with your tutor, lecturer or subject coordinator.

Understand how to use GenAI ethically.

Unless instructed otherwise by the Subject Coordinator, reference and acknowledge the use of GenAI in your work, providing details of the type of interactions and extent of usage.

Academic integrity breaches

A breach of academic integrity is also known as 'academic misconduct'. A breach occurs if you engage in behaviour that undermines academic integrity, such as plagiarism and cheating (see Student Rule 16.2).

Plagiarism can take a number of forms including but not limited to: copying any section of text, no matter how brief, from a book, journal, article or other written source, such as coding, without duly acknowledging the source. copying any map, diagram, table or figure without duly acknowledging the source. paraphrasing or otherwise using the ideas of another author without duly acknowledging the source. re-using sections of verbatim text without using quote marks to indicate the text was copied from the source (even if a reference is given).

Cheating includes, but is not limited to: submitting work that is not your own, copying from another student, recycling another student's work, recycling previously submitted work, and working with another student in the same cohort in a manner that exceeds the boundaries of legitimate cooperation purchasing an assignment from a website and submitting it as original work. requesting or paying someone else to write original work, such as an assignment, essay or computer program, and submitting it as original work. manipulating an assessment to avoid the UTS detection software or using a third-party service to bypass the UTS detection software.

using material or equipment that is not specified on an examination paper for use in the examination.

Students who allow their assessment to be copied, share their assessment on external platforms, or provide other students with the answers to assessments are also subject to student misconduct Rules.

These are all serious forms of misconduct and penalties apply.

To help ensure academic integrity, assessments that you submit electronically may be subject to similarity detection software. Your work must be submitted in a format able to be assessed by the software (e.g. doc, pdf (text files), rtf, html). Under the Coursework Assessments Policy (section 4.27), vivas or other invigilated tasks may be used to confirm or clarify your work and/or marks, and to verify achievement of learning outcomes.

Academic liaison officer

Academic liaison officers (ALOs) are academic staff in each faculty who assist students experiencing difficulties in their studies due to: disability and/or an ongoing health condition; carer responsibilities (e.g. being a primary carer for small children or a family member with a disability); and pregnancy.

ALOs are responsible for approving adjustments to assessment arrangements for students in these categories. Students who require adjustments due to disability and/or an ongoing health condition are requested to discuss their situation with an accessibility consultant at the Accessibility Service before speaking to the relevant ALO.
