Plagiarism warning

While communication and practicing with tutorials is strongly advised to enhance your skills and support your understanding of the technology, you should avoid copying material from any source. Your app must be your own work and must not infringe any copyright or licensing laws. As such:

Do not directly clone other apps. You may be inspired by other apps but yours must be discernibly different.

Code should be primarily your own work. You may include other code from training samples but you must clearly declare these and comment on how you adjusted them – if you do not then you risk an academic offense.

Artwork and audio should be primarily your own work. Anything that is not must be declared and referenced along with the terms under which you are permitted to use it commercially.

Failure to declare use of 3^rd party code, art or audio could lead to an academic offense.

Task Description

This is a Group portfolio-based assignment (70%). Every student must build a mobile application and produce a clear and consistent report to reflect on the design, development and testing/evaluation phases. The practical part of the assignment must be implemented using PhoneGap and its relevant developer tools. The requirements are further explained in the following Deliverable section.

1. You need to form a group of 3-5 people by 10 Dec 2017. If you are not in a group by then, you will be assigned to a group by the tutors.

2. Your group need to select a mobile application from the designed mobile applications that your group member submitted to the assignment 1.

3. Your group needs to work together on developing the selected mobile app using PhoneGap and produce the deliverables of the three assessment points of the assignment 2.

Deliverables

Assignment 2a – Group Project Proposal Presentation (10%)

Each group will give a 5 minutes presentation which will include:

Introduction to the mobile app;
Motivation to selected and work on this mobile app;
Target users (personas and use cases)
Look and feel of the proposed app (prototypes)
User evaluation plan
Project plan (items, timing and responsible person/people)
Reflection so far

There will be 10-15minutes feedback/Q&A session after each presentation.

Assignment 2b – Group Portfolio Submission (40%)

Each group will develop and report the proposed mobile app in assignment 2a.

You will need to submit an app development report and a Zipped folder respectively on BREO. The Zipped folder containing:

a. Development folder (all code and assets, run-able in the PhoneGap)

b. A compiled Android build (.apk file)

c. Max 5 mins Video demonstration of how the application works. This must show an Android and IOS emulation.

The requirements on the mobile app development and what to put in the app development report are detailed as follows:
