Rules for Marking

It should be clear that your assignment would not get any credit if:

• The assignment is submitted after the due date.
• The submitted assignment does not open or file is corrupt.
• Strict action will be taken if submitted solution is copied from any other student or from the internet.

1)      You should concern the recommended books to clarify your concepts as handouts are not sufficient.

2)      You are supposed to submit your assignment in .ppt or pptx format. Any other formats like scan images, PDF, zip, rar, doc and bmp etc will not be accepted.

Note: 

No assignment will be accepted after the due date via email in any case (whether it is the case of load shedding or internet malfunctioning etc.). Hence refrain from uploading assignment in the last hour of deadline. It is recommended to upload solution file at least two days before its closing date.

For any query, feel free to email at:

Note: MUL instruction should not be used.

Guidelines for Recording Audio Narration:

·         You are required to submit your solution as power point presentation (ppt or pptx).

·         Use the template for solution that is attached with assignment file.

·         The total time for audio recording should not exceed 4 minutes.

·         Make sure that your recorded voice is clear before submission on LMS.

·         If audio is unclear or corrupt, then zero marks will be awarded.

·         Record your presentation as given in demo video attached with assignment. For MS-Office 2003, watch “Audio Narration Recording Office 2003” while in case of Office 2007 follow “Audio Narration Recording Office 2007”.

·         If you are using Office 2013, then save your solution file with “Save as type”= “PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation”.

·         On first slide write your name, VU-ID and version of MS-Office you are going to use.

·         In rest of the slides, show your solution with audio explanation in a step by step fashion.

·         Moreover, don’t forget to record your name and VU-ID on the very first slide.

Best of luck!
