The student project is a compulsory course to be taken by level 6 diploma students. Each student will complete a project based on their study fields. This project will allow students the opportunity to practice their theoretical knowledge and to solve problems in the area of information technology. Students will be assessed on their skills in designing, problems solving, and performing technical management work. Objective The objective of this project manual is to provide guidelines for students in the selection of projects topic according to their field of study. This manual serves as a reference in standardizing the procedures of Project Course for Diploma students in Information Technology, which is outline by the Department of Polytechnic Education (DPE). It is for this reasons that DPE has initiated the development of this Project Guideline for Polytechnic Information Technology Programme. Credit and Duration Projects are carried out in groups of TWO (2) to FOUR (4) students. Students can form group of FOUR (4) only if the scope of the project is extensive and should be delay approved by supervisor concerned. Every member must be involved in ALL aspects of the project. Total Credit Hour The project carries SEVEN (7) credit hours where Level 5 consists of THREE (3) credit hours and LEVEL 6 is FOUR (4) credit hours. Both courses comprising of 120 hours work. Project Title Selection Criteria i. Projects must be developed in accordance with the requirements of industry (industry driven) or community and can be commercialized if appropriate. ii. Projects should have future upgrade values, which can be made to improve the quality of the project. iii. All invented projects must be original. Students who are caught to have plagiarized will be STRICTLY penalized, and result in automatic failure. iv. Selection of project title can be done by choosing the title suggested either by the coordinator, supervisor and student can also choose the topic themselves, and must be approved by the coordinator or supervisor. Project Scope
Page 1 of 74
Projects should be sufficiently challenging to allow the students to demonstrate a variety of skills, including the ability to plan their work, perform the necessary research, manage their time and resources adequately, work as a team, show initiative and originality and present their work orally and in writing. Students must develop the project based on their fields of study. Any project with a similar scope to a class assignment will not be accepted. Three project types comprising of: i. Programming ii. Networking iii. Game Development Programming The project title may ranges from system development areas such as the database development, stand-alone application, web-based application, mobile (eg. PDA, handphone), to other relevant ideas. The projects may be developed on any platform. For example, in web development student can develop a dynamic web page or a commercial webpage which responds to the users needs, and provides relevant information by accessing information in a connected database. For stand-alone application, students may develop computer software that can work offline, which does not necessarily require network connection to function. Networking The project title may range from computer networking areas such as, the emerging networking technologies, network application, network security, wireless technologies, architectures, systems, services to other network and related area. This may include network simulation, network design, and network analysis. In network simulation, student will create a program that models the behavior of a network either by calculating the interaction between the different network entities (hosts/routers, data links, packets, etc) using mathematical formula, or actually capturing and playing back observations from a production network. The behavior of the network, the various applications and services the network supports can then be observed in a test lab; various attributes of the environment can also be modified in a controlled manner to assess how the network would behave under different conditions. In networking analysis student is required to perform a detailed study on a certain area related to the networking. A large portion of the research will be dedicated for documenting his studies. For example, a student who chose to perform a study on issues related to network security can develop a small application such as a packet sniffer to demonstrate the security threats that he read in the literature can actually happen in real life.

Game Development The project titles may range from game development areas such as, stand-alone game, web-based game, mobile or multimedia game to other relevant areas. In this project, students will use their programming skills to develop a video game for commercial, educational and other purposes. Students will select a theme and general design for their 2D or 3D video game and use a programming language of their choice to develop their digital activities by combining graphics, music, sound effects, sprite and pixel art, modelling, texturing, animation and level design in the project. Focusing on a central task of modeling a character, students will analyze and build complex 3D objects piece by piece. Procedures Change project title Level 6 students are only allowed to change their titles up to week 6 (add and drop week). (Refer Appendix A). If they change the title they have to redo all their level 5 assesments. Attendance Attendance must be at least 80% , if not students coursework assesments marks will be disregarded. Copyright The Polytechnic shall be the owner of all findings, designs, patents and other intellectual property rights of the projects. Plagiarism Students may discuss with their supervisors should they are in doubt of the nature of plagiarism. If caught committing plagiarism, strict action will be taken against the students.
Responsibility and Roles Student Once a the students project is approved, it will be the students responsibility to consult their supervisors in order to ensure that they understand the objectives of the project, expectations from the project,

CONCLUSION
References Table 5.1: Reference List for Articles in Periodicals
Basic Form The APA style dictates that authors are named last name followed by initials; publication year goes between parentheses, followed by a period. The title of the article is in sentence-case, meaning only the first word and proper nouns in the title are capitalized. The periodical title is run in title case, and is followed by the volume number which, with the title, is also italicized or underlined. Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (Year). Title of article. Title of Periodical, volume number(issue number), pages. Article in Journal Paginated by Volume Article in Journal Paginated by Issue Journals that are paginated by volume begin with page one in issue one, and continue numbering in issue two where issue one ended. Journals paginated by issue begin with page one in every issue. Therefore, the issue number gets indicated in parentheses after the volume. The parentheses and issue number are not italicized or underlined. Harlow, H. F. (1983). Fundamentals for preparing psychology journal articles.
