This is a Further IT core unit for third year students in the BBIS. It focuses on programming technologies and extends students' understanding from the OOP paradigm to the concepts and principles of component based software systems.

07/12/2017 - Updating prerequisites to include the new programming unit.

June 2017: update to learning outcomes, synopsis and prerequisites to align with FIT2095 (to be co-taught in S2 2017). FIT3083 will be offered for the final time in 2017. Discussed with Chief Examiner.

Sept 2015: CE updated workload requirements following a discussion with Clayton HOC resulting from suggestions from the student/staff meeting. Implementation Sem 1, 2016.

28/05/2014 - Change objectives to learning outcomes for AQF compliance.

Removed Systems analysis and design from ASCED codes after advice from central confirmed that there cannot be 2 codes for one unit. Confirmed with CE that Programming is appropriate code.

Updated ASCED codes with % breakdown. Amended prerequisites to allow for FIT1002 change in 2013.

Now offered at third year level in order to accommodate the new second year programming language.

28/4/2021 - Unit disestablished at FEC 2/21 Item 6.2

This unit is a third year core unit in the Bachelor Business Information Systems (BBIS).

This unit introduces students to the technologies required to implement (lower level) e-Business Systems via a pragmatic introduction to programming Web-based applications. Although this unit is entirely suitable for a future developer of e-Business Systems its main focus is future managers of such developments.

The unit exposes students to as many of the currently popular eBusiness technologies as possible so that their design and implementation decisions in the future will be informed and therefore produce successful systems with a high degree of probability.

At the completion of this unit, students should be able to:

020103 Programming

Non-B2B e-Business applications are now mostly developed for Web and mobile platforms. With the advent of mobile Web apps a set of technologies and techniques has emerged that are shared by both Web and mobile application development. This unit introduces, explains and uses these technologies and techniques to build basic but industrial strength e-Business applications. The topics covered will be selected from the following: an overview of the current state-of-play in e-Business application development, HTML5 (the living standard), CSS3, object oriented JavaScript for large developments, JavaScript APIs, Ajax, JSON, XML and related W3C technologies, jQuery, jQuery Mobile, MVC, ASP.NET MVC, ECMAScript 2015 and beyond, Angular, TypeScript, React. The appropriateness of the selected technologies in different contexts, together with relevant best practice techniques for their use and integration will also be covered.

On-campus

Examination (2 hours, 30 minutes reading and noting time): 60%; In-semester assessment: 40%

Minimum total expected workload equals 12 hours per week comprising:

(a.) Contact hours for on-campus students:

(b.) Additional requirements (all students):

NOTE: The additional of a one hour weekly tutorial is effective from 2017 (when the unit will be co-taught with FIT2095). For 2016 contact hours will remain as a weekly 2 hour lecture and 2 hour lab.

In any given week of the semester all tutorials must be scheduled after the lectorial/workshop but before any labs
