Task: Above-and-Beyond 9

Complete an optional project that creatively goes “above and beyond” the tasks you and your partner(s) are working on in your team projects.

Students that achieve a passing grade with each of their team tasks and peer evaluations will pass the course with a C grade. Above-and-beyond tasks are projects that students may accomplish individually. There are eight Above-and-beyond opportunities in this course.

This above and beyond option allows you to create your own task.

Proposal and Requirements

• Think of an interesting task which relates to this class.
  • The task should show initiative in taking your cybersecurity learning deeper.
  • Your task needs to be approved by your instructor before you start on it.
• Think of what constitutes success in completing your task. Those conditions are your requirements.
  • You’ll show that you meet those requirements by producing your tutorial.
• Write a brief tutorial showing how you completed your task.

Deliverable

Upload an illustrated tutorial, in which you explain what you did and how you accomplished it.

• Your document should be clear enough that one of your peers would be able to follow your instructions and accomplish the same tasks.
• Identify any difficult or challenging parts of the project, and clearly explain how you diagnosed and overcame your obstacles.
• Include a few cropped screen captures where appropriate.

Scoring Rubric

• If your tutorial satisfies every requirement you or your team outlined and your instructor approved, you will earn a passing score (one point).
• If your tutorial does not satisfy one or more of the above requirements, you will earn no points. Your must then address any deficiencies and re-upload corrected documents until you earn the passing score.
