BRIEF
Part A: Lessons Learnt in Engineering and IT – Article Review 900 words 20%
Students investigate an engineering or IT event where there were lessons learnt that can be
applied to future projects. The failures or events do not have to be catastrophic and can relate
to process, maintenance, human error, construction techniques, design etc. Students can
choose from a list of topics or, in consultation with their Tutor, nominate their own. Students
find ONE (1) suitable and reliable source on their Lessons Learnt case study. The source
should ideally be around 2-6 pages. Students should focus on the background to the event
rather than the lessons learnt. Include peer review checklist with your report.
Questions that COULD be answered include:
• When did the event occur?
• Who did it involve?
• Where did it happen?
• What happened?
• Why or how did it happen? What was the cause?
• Who was responsible?
• What was the cost – lives and money?
• Anything else of interest – but NOT engineering lessons learnt.
Part B: Lessons Learnt in Engineering and IT – Poster Presentation 5%
Students prepare a one page poster and have one-two minutes to tell the class about their
topic.
The poster is presented in class Week 5. Students can select their own creative way to present
the poster but it must be single page shown on computer screen. Presentation must introduce
the topic to the class. Poster should contain both text and graphics. Poster should be
uploaded to TURNITIN before presentation.
