Agile Development
You have been put in multi-disciplinary teams comprising around 8 students from a number of courses at the University. Each member of the team brings a unique set of skills to the project.
You are required to design, build and test a system for capturing environmental data in real time, analysing it and presenting it in a meaningful manner.
You should consider the use of historical data supplemented with live data and are encouraged to incorporate multiple sources.
The data might include amongst other things: temperature, humidity, rainfall, pollution, etc.
The data can come from a variety of sources including:
⦁ Live sensors (if you have them).
⦁ Online data feeds (APIs).
⦁ Screen scraping data from websites.
Assessment
The practical project will not be marked however it will form the basis of an individual detailed reflective report and you will be expected to include evidence in this taken from the practical work.
The report reflects on your experiences, both positive and negative, of working on the assignment, applying all the concepts covered in the module theory. If you fully engage in the development process you will have the experiences and evidence you need to complete the report but, conversely, if you don’t fully participate, you will struggle to write the report as you will not have the experiences to reflect on.
The report will be graded using the associated grading rubric so take time to read through this and ask the module leader if there is any part of this you are unclear about.
