Exam Structure:
Workshop 11
FIT2001 – SAMPLE Exam questions
Mock e-exam (structure only)
In Week 12, we will show you a Mock e-Exam so that you can see the Exam structure and the way you upload answers for practical questions. It will not include sample questions. All questions are covered in this document.
Practice Quiz Questions:
In the exam section of Moodle, we will put together all the quiz questions from Weeks 2-12. This will help with practising for Section A of the exam. You will be able to practise unlimited times. Reviewing the feedback is important not only for the quiz part of the exam, but also for your general understanding of the content.
Answers to sample questions:
We will not be providing answers to sample questions, as that encourages memorising rather than learning. Our goal in this unit is that you learn so that it helps you in your career. Memorising answers to pass an exam is not going to help you at all.
Both the tutors and lecturer will be available throughout Swot Vac and the exam period for zoom consultations. While we will not mark questions or give you sample answers, we are more than happy to have detailed discussions for any of the questions, providing you have really tried to give it a go yourself first.
Practical sample questions:
To assist with the sample practical questions we will create videos to revise the thinking process that you need to go through when creating the models.
Question 1. (Seminar 1)
SAMPLE QUESTIONS

B. The manager has decided to adopt the Agile approach. Please provide a brief description of the approach, the main activities and the main artifacts to the team.
Question 6. (Seminar 2)
ABC Etron, an electronics manufacturing company have approved the development an e-purchasing system. The system will link the Purchasing Department employees of the organisation with 20 suppliers, who supply a wide range of components ABC Etron. The project was initiated at the request of the Purchasing Director who thinks the system is going to be a key improvement for his department. It was approved by the Chief Executive Officer of ABC Etron, who has just been through the process of reviewing and approving 40 projects for the organisation. The purchasing staff are not keen to cooperate because they are concerned that the new system may lead to job losses, and the suppliers are not keen either, because they think the system will be an extra administrative and financial burden for them, and force them to change the way they work. The IT Manager of ABC Etron supports the development of the e-purchasing system, as he expects that the successful implementation of the system will help improve his IT department’s credibility and improve his chances of promotion.
Based on the description above:
A. Identify the key stakeholders and place them on the quadrants in the matrix below, by considering their influence/power and interest in the development of the electronic purchasing system.
B. For each stakeholder, discuss why you have placed them in a particular quadrant.
Question 7. (Seminar 3)
The key to successfully developing information systems is understanding the requirements of the system.
A. Case Study: Your client, APEX Hardware, specialises in Do It Yourself (DIY) supplies and products. They work with over 10,500 supplier companies and now require a new Supplier Management System. They would like to find out what impact the new system’s functional requirements would have on their suppliers, particularly, the impact of the new “flexible stock level management” functionality. APEX Hardware is keen to get input from the majority of their 10,500 suppliers, as to whether, they would prefer to continue as it, or if they can comply with a new dynamic (changing) supply system, where they need to change the level of supply based on APEX Hardware’s changing demand.
Name the data gathering technique most suitable to get this data. Briefly describe 2 reasons why you would choose this technique.
B. Case Study: You are the system analyst at a motorcycle manufacturing organisation, and have been called in to review work practices because there are constant problems on the factory floor. You have started by reviewing the process documentation, and from the documentation the work processes appear well structured and should not be causing any problems.
Name the data gathering technique most suitable to discover the cause of the problems. Briefly describe 2 reasons why you would choose this technique.
C. Interviews are often used to investigate the requirements of a system. Briefly describe 2 problems and 2 benefits that you need to consider when using interviews as a requirements gathering technique.
Question 8. (Seminar 3)

Question 9. (Seminar 4)
Briefly describe what this Activity diagram is telling you. Please use bullet points for your description.
Question 10. (Seminar 5)
Briefly describe what this Use Case diagram is telling you. Please use bullet points for your description.
Question 11. (Seminar 9)
How are coupling and cohesion used to assess the quality of design models?
Question 12. (Seminar 7.1)
You are about to proceed with an Agile iteration for developing the appointment system for the Makeuwell Medical clinic, and would like to develop some prototypes to help with understanding requirements and to help the developers. Your boss is keen for you to just get on with it using the system description you already have as they have a very tight schedule. Briefly discuss with your boss the key advantages and disadvantages of prototyping, so that they make an informed decision.
FOR Questions 13 & Questions 14
Makeuwell Medical Clinic – Description of partial functionality of the system used by Makeuwell medical clinic. Please use this description for the specified questions.
The Makeuwell medical clinic registers new patients by getting their name, address, email, phone and medicare no. Before registering the patient, the clinic checks that the patient is not already on the system by checking their medicare number. The patient is listed as either a private patient or a government patient. If the patient is a government patient, the government benefit type e.g. pensioner and the benefit number is noted. If they are a private patient, their health fund name and number are noted. The patient is emailed a welcome pack with information about the clinic and doctors at the end of registration, and they have to enter a password to confirm registration.

Question 18. (Seminars 5, 6 and 9)
Makeuwell Medical Clinic – Description of partial functionality of the system used by Makeuwell medical clinic. Please use this description for the specified questions.
The Makeuwell medical clinic registers new patients by getting their name, address, email, phone and medicare no. Before registering the patient, the clinic checks that the patient is not already on the system by checking their medicare number. The patient is listed as either a private patient or a government patient. If the patient is a government patient, the government benefit type e.g. pensioner and the benefit number is noted. If they are a private patient, their health fund name and number are noted. The patient is emailed a welcome pack with information about the clinic and doctors at the end of registration, and they have to enter a password to confirm registration. Their email and password gives them access to the appointment system.
There are a number of doctors at the clinic and their name, general medical qualification and their range of specialties such as diabetics, women’s health, etc. are displayed on the website. For each specialty they have done, they also list their qualification in that specialty.
All appointment requests must be made via the clinic’s website. The patient puts in an appointment request for a date and time period, and they can either request a specific doctor or they can select a speciality or they can request that the clinic allocates any doctor. The clinic then organises the appointment with a doctor and emails the appointment details (date, time, doctor name) to the patient. If the appointment request is not possible, they email the patient to let them know, and update the status of the appointment request.
After the patient attends their appointment, they pay the fee if they are a private patient. Government patients do not have to pay a fee as their fees are paid by the government. The doctor records the date, medicine name and dose of any medicines they have prescribed associated with the appointment. Before they can note the prescription they must check that the medicare no. is valid with the Government medicare system
