Project II

Presentation

The Project II course aims to promote the acquisition of the skills necessary for the execution of a software project and / or information system in accordance with good practices, and with a view to a coherent integration of the knowledge acquired in other curricular units. Project II underlies the previous course of Project I where the software project charter was defined and planned.

The course promotes the adoption of software development tools, including programming languages and integrated development environments. It is also intended to encourage proactive research behaviours, stimulate creative thinking and critical ability in the design of the software system architecture, as well as promoting good software engineering and documentation practices.

Teaching methodologies and assessment

Continuous evaluation

Classes will be taught on a tutoring basis, in order to adapt to the project under development.
The evaluation will be carried out in three moments:

• Evaluation of the two intermediate presentations made (including the initial work proposal) and an analysis of the student's regular performance, in relation to the defined objectives (30%);
• Evaluation related to the project / prototype developed (50%). The evaluation of this component will be based on the project report, as well as an analysis of the student's performance and participation (and progression) during the semester;
• Presentation and defense of the project (20%).
