%X Since 2001 Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of
Technology (CPIT) has taught the first two tears of the
Bachelor of Information and Communication
Technologies (BICT) degree at four vocational
colleges in Beijing, China. The students study for three
years as the computing content is combined with a year
of English language study. After passing the three
years study in Beijing the students graduate with a
Diploma of Computing (Level 6) and they are eligible
to complete the final year of the BICT at CPIT.
Students’ who articulate to the BICT often require
extra English tuition, find our educational model
foreign and they often feel pressured by the
expectations of their family in China.
CPIT academic staff, who teach on the third year of the
degree, have noticed a change in class dynamics as
these ‘new to CPIT’ students require additional support
in many cases. The students have little independent
learning skills and require nurturing initially to get
them comfortable with the CPIT way of life.
In spite of the problems faced by the students and staff
the success rate of these students is reasonably close to
the success rate of other students in the final year of the
BICT degree.

%X Risk management is important in achieving successful project outcomes. This research explores Software Project Managers perceptions of risk in face-to-face and virtual settings in order to draw conclusions on whether or not project setting has an impact on software project risk profile. A list of risk factors is compiled from risk management literature for use in asking SPMs to indicate how they would perceive the given risks in face-to-face and virtual settings. Specific information is sought regarding most likely risks, risk probability of occurrence, risk impact and difficulty and complexity of project management processes in either setting. Risk impact-probability metrics are used to show the differences and similarities in risk importance between the two settings. The results suggest that even though most of what can go wrong in face-to face settings can also go wrong in virtual settings there are important differences in likely risk events between the two settings. Of major importance is the result that there are significant differences in risk probability and risk impact  between the two settings. Another finding is that risk management processes are perceived to be different between face–to-face settings and virtual settings.  the comparative differences in risk components and management process strongly suggest that project setting has an impact on software project risk.

%X Plagiarism is a form of academic cheating that is
concerning academic institutions world wide. This paper
looks at the rise of the paper mills on the Internet that
produce academic essays and dissertations on demand
and thereby provide an easy path to success for any
student willing to pay the price. Current responses
include honour systems and bureaucratic activity that
disguises ineffectiveness. The surrounding societal
prevalence of cheating in journalism and sport is
considered. This, along with academic pressures,
provides a ready market and toleration for such paper
mills. Some popular in-class responses to plagiarism are
enumerated including insisting that plagiarism is a
violation of an academic moral code. The rise of
plagiarism checking services like turnitin.com has
provided teachers with an important tool to defeat
plagiarism. The paper ends with the presentation of a tool
to test the strength and efficacy of such services when
presented with copied text that has been altered.

international literature in the computing disciplines. The
study and its findings are briefly reviewed and the outlets
in which NACCQ research has been cited are tabulated.
This paper establishes the first profile of international

framework utilises Monte Carlo simulation to compute
the propagation of uncertainty in estimates towards the
total project uncertainty and therefore gives a project
manager the means to make informed decisions
throughout the project life. The framework also
provides a mechanism for accumulating project
knowledge through the use of a historical database,
allowing effort estimates to be informed by, or indeed
based upon, the outcome of previous projects.

%X This paper is a positional paper that revisits the case for a
national computing degree and investigates if changes in
the tertiary educational sector in New Zealand may have
created an environment where polytechnics and institutes
of technology could work together to develop and
introduce a collaborative computing degree.
The paper describes previous attempts to engender
support for a national degree and describes the significant
changes in the tertiary sector that have seen the
government move from encouraging competition to
emphasising the need for collaboration between institutes.
At the same time the number of students seeking
computing training has fallen dramatically, leaving
tertiary institutes looking for new ways to attract
prospective students into their computing courses.
For the first time the national degree concept appears to
have the support of the National Advisory Committee on
Computing Qualifications (NACCQ). The paper
describes how the NACCQ executive has sought the
support of the Institute of Technology and Polytechnics
of New Zealand (ITPNZ) to sponsor the development of a
business plan leading to the establishment of a national
degree. The paper also includes details of the ITPNZ
response.

%X This preliminary report is based upon the experiences of
six students who had recently completed their first
semester of studying Unix. A phenomenographic analysis
of the interview transcripts identified four categories of
how students experienced Unix. One of the categories is
Unix as a resource, in which the student focuses on
characteristics of Unix such as its cost, vulnerability to
attack, robustness, and load capacity. The other three
categories focus on the direct user experience of Unix.
These three categories form an outcome space that is
linear and hierarchical. Those three categories are, from
lowest to highest: Unix as a set of commands, Unix as a
tool for solving certain problems, and Unix as a
professional computing environment. For this outcome
space, there are indications of a direct relationship
between the category most prominently manifested in
each student’s interview transcript and the student’s final
mark in the Unix course. There are also indications of a
similar relationship between the outcome space and the
student’s performance on the R-SPQ-2F test for deep and surface learning.

%X Local governments around the world are already
providing services to the public through the Internet.
These range from rate information to payment of
traffic fines and tourism promotion. Overall, the
provision of online services is collectively referred to
as ‘e-local government’. The purpose of e-local
government initiatives is to increase the availability of
government to its citizens, provide better services and
enhance participation in local democracy. The last of
these categories, increasing participation in local
democracy through e-government, is the domain of
online elections.
The primary goal of this study was to determine the
current progress towards online local elections in New
Zealand. We developed and used automated content
categorisation software to analyse local government
body web sites. The results of our content analysis over
78 local government bodies were then compared with
other research in the area and local government online
election strategy. Our findings showed that over a
quarter of local government bodies do not provide any
election-related information through their web site.
The remainder of the sites offer varying levels of
election-related content quality in four main categories
– general election information, candidate nomination
information, voter registration and election results. We
discovered that to date none of the New Zealand local
councils offer online voting services and on average,
local government web sites offer a low quality of
election-related content. A number of “best-of-breed”
sites that could serve as an example for local councils
wishing to improve upon the quality of their offerings
are identified and described.

the tutoring experience may have a significant impact on the future for both tutors and students.
This paper describes a Tutoring Quality Program that
aims to ensure high-quality tutoring in a Department of
Computer Science. An unusual aspect of this program is
that it is designed to create a community of practice
amongst all tutors for all courses in the department, rather
than being a training program for novice tutors, or a
training program for casual tutors, or a training program for tutors in programming courses.

%X The delivery of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT ) programmes in high schools, and the
recruitment of school leavers to tertiary Information
Technology (IT) programmes are especially critical issues
for New Zealand, with its small population base, and
comparatively large rural community.
Many schools find it difficult to provide and staff
innovative and challenging ICT programmes. Students
are often unaware of the extent and variation in the field
of IT and that IT is primarily a creative problem solving
exercise. Students are often uninformed of the range of IT
programmes offered by tertiary providers or the potential
variety of positions that are available in the IT industry.
These issues are exacerbated in rural school communities.
All tertiary IT providers report falling rolls, and recognise
the need to attract more school leavers into our
programmes.
This paper outlines and reviews a six-day holiday course
run in 2005 by Otago Polytechnic for ICT-talented
secondary school students from rural Otago and
Southland schools. The approach presented increases the
interactions and connections between schools and tertiary
providers to their mutual benefit.

(CPIT) embarked on a project to develop eLearning
content for a number of modules from the Certificate in
Computing (CIC) that is overseen by the National
Advisory Committee on Computing Qualifications
The purpose of this paper is to describe the process that
was used to manage the development team and the key
issues that arose, how Belbin Team Roles as described in
Belbin (1981) could have been applied at the inception of
the project, and how the use of organisational patterns as
described in Coplien and Harrison (2005) could have been
applied in making decisions about how the team would function.
The paper identifies how some aspects of Belbin Team
Roles were extremely helpful in the managing of the team,
how some organisational patterns confirm different aspects
of how the team was managed, and that had other
organisational patterns been applied at the start of the
project some aspects of the overall project would have been improved and enhanced.

%X Over the past several decades, particularly since it was
adopted by the IT industry in the 1980s, industry
certification has expanded into a multi-billion dollar
business (Cosgrove, 2004). But is it a pedagogically
robust form of credentialing? Does it have value to
those who hold such certifications and to the industry
they represent? A current study using both
phenomenography and Interpretive Phenomenological
Analysis (IPA) suggests that, if well designed and well
administered, such certifications are indeed
pedagogically sound, with significant value. It is
therefore argued that such a credentialing system can
be used for teachers and analysts of SoDIS (Software Development Impact Statements).

%X This paper examines guessing strategies in multiplechoice
assessments. It first looks at the likelihood of
achieving a pass score given that the student has no
knowledge of the subject area and adopts a pure guessing
strategy. Then an analysis of negative marking schemes,
as a means of discouraging guessing, is presented and
used in order to examine the trade-offs between taking a geuss and not answering a question. 
The analysis shows that with a negative marking scheme
the benefits/detriments of guessing depend upon the
severity of the penalty of an incorrect answer relative to
level of reward for a correct answer and the number
options from which the students have to choose. From this
analysis it is possible to calibrate the marking scheme and establish fair penalties.

%X Over the last two years there has been a significant
increase in advertised IT jobs in New Zealand and a
considerable drop in the number of students graduating
with IT degrees. In 2004 tertiary IT enrolments were at
their lowest in 15 years and it has been estimated that
almost half of IT tertiary students drop out in the first
year. This appears to be part of a global trend and
anecdotal evidence and common sense suggests that the
lack of a consistent IT curriculum in secondary schools
could be a major contributor to this problem.
This research set out to explore the teaching of ICT in
New Zealand schools. 312 secondary schools and their
IT teachers were surveyed in 2005. While the response
rate was not high, the results suggest that the absence of a
common, nationally recognised definition of IT in
secondary schools, exacerbated by the lack of a national
IT curriculum, has resulted in confusion for staff and
students, a lack of consistent standards, and the absence
of a recognised pathway to tertiary study. The results
also suggest that IT is not valued in schools as a
legitimate, academic subject and that the majority of
secondary IT teachers do not have any formal IT
qualification. Intended to complement work being
undertaken by the FIT initiative, this research appears to
support some of the current anecdotal evidence and
highlights some particular areas that need addressing.

%X This paper describes a novel enhancement to the standard
Multi-Choice Question (MCQ) type assessment. The new
method utilises a time delay between students seeing the
questions and when they are given the answers to choose
from. During this period, students are encouraged to
answer the question, as if they were attempting a
constructed-response test. We argue that this modified
test improves the ability of students to express their
knowledge of the subject compared with a standard MCQ
test. This is achieved while keeping the advantages of
MCQ tests (e.g. efficient marking) that have made them a
popular method of assessment. The details of how the
enhanced MCQ assessment is to be delivered are
explained, along with a description of the proposed
qualitative and quantitative analysis of results.
