ENGG1003 Digital Literacy and Computational Thinking—P
(2023-2024 Term 1) Project Specification
Topic Deadline: 10-Nov-2023 (Fri) 23:59
Full Deadline: 5-Dec-2023 (Tue) 23:59
Max attainable score: 100+20 (bonus)
1. Objective and Expected Outcomes
In this project, students are expected to apply the knowledge and to demonstrate the skills learnt in the
course independently. The area of study can be related to your discipline, your interest and/or some real-life cases. The study should be data-driven with proper data analysis and good information
presentation. Data for the study can be open-source or collected from existing databases. Students shall use computational tools and software introduced in the course.
2. Introduction
Conduct a study to focus on a problem or phenomenon that is related to the society or your field. You shall suggest, search, locate, access, use and cite your data sources properly. Complete your study with data analytics and visual presentation tools available under Excel and/or Jupyter Notebook with Python.
You are required to complete and package all your work in at most two files : Project.xlsx and/or Project.ipynb. Upload and submit one or two files to Blackboard Project submission entry.
3. Requirements and Rubric (with bonus points for extended outcomes)
Your workshall include at least the following elements:
The first item 0 shall be submitted by the Topic Deadline.

3.8. Computational tools and techniques:
3.8.1. Excel: using conditionals such as if(), and(), or(), countif(), etc.; calling functions; and writing formulas.
3.8.2. Python: using branching statements if-elif-else; using repetition statement for; calling modules/ functions. (10% + 5%)
3.9. Summary, conclusion, and reflection. (10% + 5%)
3.10. Citations and References in Chicago format: including both offline and online sources. (10%)
4. Academic Honesty and Declaration Statement

5. Grading Platforms
Excel workbooks will be graded on Microsoft Excel 2016 or later; in xlsx (but not older xls) format.
We will grade your work using Jupyter Notebook with Python 3.11 and some pre-installed libraries and packages. The official development and testing platform has been standardized for all students on the provided Microsoft Azure Lab VM. If your work requires additional libraries and/or packages, you shall install those on your own VM AND you shall also statesoat the beginning of your Jupyter Notebook.
