How do I go about carrying out a trial?

 

Step 1 – Collecting in work

 

Your students will normally hand in work on paper, and unless there is some reason to change this, we see no reason to – work is still much more easily marked on paper. You do, however, need to also collect in an electronic copy of the work and also obtain the students’ permission.

 

In computing, we normally obtain the students’ permission in the form of this signed statement, handed in with the paper copy of the work:

 

Disclaimer (this is an example taken from the computing MSc dissertation cover sheet)

I certify that the material contained in this dissertation is my own work and does not contain significant portions of unreferenced or unacknowledged material. I also warrant that the above statement applies to the implementation of the project and all associated documentation.

 

In the case of electronically submitted work, I also consent to this work being stored electronically and copied for assessment purposes. Including the department’s use of plagiarism detection systems in order to check the integrity of assessed work.
