Referencing Rubric ____

Providing evidence based on valid and referenced academic sources is a fundamental educational principle and the
cornerstone of high-quality academic work. Hence, The IIE considers it essential to develop the referencing skills of our
students in our commitment to achieve high academic standards. Part of achieving these high standards is referencing in a
way that is consistent, technically correct and congruent. This is not plagiarism, which is handled differently.
Poor quality formatting in your referencing will result in a penalty of a maximum of ten percent being deducted from the
mark awarded, according to the following guidelines. Please note, however, that evidence of plagiarism in the form of
copied or uncited work (not referenced), absent reference lists, or exceptionally poor referencing, may result in action
being taken in accordance with The IIE’s Intellectual Integrity Policy (0023).
Markers are required to provide feedback to students by indicating (circling/underlining) the information that best
describes the student’s work.
Minor technical referencing errors: 5% deduction from the overall mark – the student’s work contains five or more
errors listed in the minor errors column in the table below.
Major technical referencing errors: 10% deduction from the overall mark – the student’s work contains five or more
errors listed in the major errors column in the table below.
If both minor and major errors are indicated, then 10% is deducted from the overall mark.
The examples provided below are not exhaustive but are provided to illustrate the error.

Task: Software Development for Social Good
You are employed by a local bank and as part of their social responsibility program, your project
team has been tasked with creating an App aimed at assisting and benefiting a South African Non-
governmental organisation (NGO) of your choice. You are required to think of an innovative idea
that could lead to the development of an App for this organisation.
The following are ideas to get you started on a App for your project:
• An App for connecting an NGO with potential donors
• An educational App for an NGO focused on special needs children.
• An App for an NGO focused on addressing Gender based Violence (GBV) in South Africa
• etc
Your solution should:

• Digitise the processes involved in the NGO.
• Make the solution simple, efficient and reliable.
• Ensure hardened security is implemented.
• Use low data and free to use.
Your task is to demonstrate how you would apply project management knowledge and skills when
creating the information technology solution - the App from start to finish. Use a suitable IT (or
any other) project management methodology and project management software.
Note:
The idea you develop must be communicated to your lecturer and be accepted or approved by
your lecturer before you start the project.
Some fundamental assumptions and project requirements:

• Preferably, the system approach/project information system approach is to be followed;
• The budget is limited to R1 000 000;
• A minimum of four team members must be involved in the running of the project from start
to finish. You are expected to conduct your own research regarding the product, project
team selection, and developing a project schedule and management;
• Project duration must not exceed 15 months;
• Additional assumptions and requirements must be adequately added.
