Course Project
Dental Clinic System

1- Instructions to Students:

• The project consists of 4 phases and is worth 15% of the total mark.
• Phases will be submitted on the following dates:

Phase No. Phase Description Submission Week

Phase 1 Design (Interface) week 8, April 12
Phase 2 Coding first part week 10, April 26
Phase 3 Coding second part week 13, May 17
Phase 4 Final submission + Discussion week 14, May 24

• Students must follow conventional naming and programming syntax as well as providing
clear, concise comments where appropriate.
• Students will be assessed on documenting the code, interface design, organization,
methodology, error checking and logic.
• Students should make sure to handle a situation in which the user enters input in a
format different from what they think (all caps, all lowercase, etc.)

2- What you should turn in:

1. One CD contains the executable file(.exe) and the code( .frm)

2. User Manual:
a. An introduction to the application.
b. Screenshots of events that can happen in the application to help explain what
is going on.
3. The Project Declaration Sheet signed by all members of the group.

We have some templates from last semester you can ask your lab instructor to show them to
you.

Second semester 1430 – 1431 H

PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism is the presentation by a student of an assignment that has been copied in whole or in part
from another student’s work, or from any other source (eg published books or internet sites) without
proper acknowledgment in the text. (Your code may have ONLY 5% code from the internet with proper
acknowledgment).

CONSEQUENCES OF PLAGIARISM
In any case where a student has been involved in plagiarism this will be reported to the Dean. It may be
reported to Student Administration and recorded on the student’s academic file.
In any case where a student has been involved in plagiarism in an assessable task the marks awarded
for that task will be -15, and no substitution of an alternative task will normally be permitted. In Addition,
penalties may include failing the course and exclusion from the University.

DECLARATION
We declare that this submission is our own work and does not involve plagiarism.
