ASSESSMENT DETAILS

Due Date Weighting Format Length/Duration Submission
Each of these icons are used for the various assessment tasks. Details are provided below.
TURNITIN
Turnitin is an originality and plagiarism prevention tool that enables the assessment of submitted
written work for improper citation or misappropriated content. Each Turnitin task is checked against
other students' work, the internet and key resources selected by the course convenor.
An artificial intelligence (AI) writing detection tool is embedded within Turnitin and is able to identify the
extent to which a student’s response has been generated using technology such as Chat GPT, Bard
(Google), Bing and/or others. Whilst this tool will not in itself be used as an indication that a student has
engaged in academic misconduct the tool can be used with other information to investigate the situation
more fully.
UNSW College teaches and assesses in English, except in language courses. Using digital translators
is also not permitted. One of the reasons is because language is not merely words, but also based in
particular contexts. A pure translation of words will not necessarily reflect its context.
The best way to produce English language work is to write in English. The use of generative AI including
translators is likely to appear in a Turnitin report. If your response is not written in English, you cannot
assume the marker can read your work to verify that you understood the question being assessed.
Further, language editing will likely be identified as AI generated writing. This course does not permit the
use of these tools. If, however you inadvertently make use of AI translators such as Google translate,
Bing Microsoft Translate, Grammarly and/or others please ensure that you record it and keep drafts of
your work. You may be required to provide previous drafts of your work if you are asked about how you
developed it.
In this course it is possible to make use of generative AI to understand and clarify concepts; however, your
answers must not have AI generated answers.
It is essential that students edit the information they gather using the AI to such an extent that only their
own work is submitted. It is recommended (as mentioned previously) that students keep evidence of
this formative work including drafts should there be concerns about the originality of their response.
Please be advised that in the event there is evidence of use of generative AI (beyond that outlined
above) to form any significant part or all of a submitted response; it will be regarded as serious
academic misconduct and subjected to an investigation to determine the appropriate penalty. Please
refer to the Student Handbook for more information. Remember, Turnitin will generate the degree of
similarity and AI generated answers.
Page 4

Additional information about acceptable use of AI can be found at
https://www.student.unsw.edu.au/assessment/ai. Please note that this information is general in nature
and that the specifics of the expectations in this course are identified above.
LATE SUBMISSION
If you submit your (written) assessment after the due date, you may incur penalties for late submission. The
final examination response however can only be submitted on the day of the examination in accordance
with the information provided beforehand. Refer to the course outline for details. Late submission of quiz
responses is not possible unless prior permission has been obtained by the course convenor.
EXTENSION
You are expected to manage your time to meet assessment requirements including submission by the due
date. If you do however require an extension for the submission of a task, it is important that you contact the
course convenor/your tutor in the first instance to discuss the request as soon as you are aware of why you
need this consideration. Note that an extension will only be granted in certain circumstances.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATION
Special consideration is the process for assessing the impact of short-term events beyond your control
(exceptional circumstances), that may impact your performance in an assessment task. Always seek advice
from the course convenor/your tutor first, before applying for any special consideration. As a guide an
exceptional circumstance generally:
• Prevent you from completing a course requirement,
• Keep you from attending an assessment,
• Stop you from submitting an assessment,
• Significantly affect your assessment performance.
Available here is a list of circumstances that may be beyond your control. This is only a list of
examples, and your exact circumstances may not be listed.
You can find more detail and the application form on the Special Consideration site, or in the UNSW
Special Consideration Application and Assessment Information for Students.
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
As a student at UNSW you are expected to display academic integrity in your work and interactions. Where
a student breaches the UNSW Student Code with respect to academic integrity, the University may take
disciplinary action under the Student Misconduct Procedure. To assure academic integrity, you may be
required to demonstrate reasoning, research, and the process of constructing work submitted for
assessment.
To assist you in understanding what academic integrity means, and how to ensure that you do comply with
the UNSW Student Code, it is strongly recommended that you complete the Working with Academic
Integrity module before submitting your first assessment task. It is a free, online self-paced Moodle module
that should take about one hour to complete.

4.1 ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW
The purpose of this assessment task is to assess the following learning outcomes:

• explain how an organisation uses analytical and statistical tools to gain valuable insights.
• apply statistics and data analysis skills to real data sets from a variety of organisations and
domains to generate insights to make informed decisions.
• visualize and analyse data to support arguments that increase comprehension of information,
insights and problem solving.
• effectively communicate data insights and recommendations to a range of stakeholders.
• critically evaluate the suitability of data and data sources to identify and analyse business
problems.

This assessment task is geared to:

• examine your conceptual understanding how visualization and descriptive statistics can be used in
improving business decisions; and
• test your understanding about data visualization and descriptive statistics through R (software) and
the application of visualization in generating insights.


4.1.1 Assessment tasks and focus

This assessment task focuses on data visualization and analysis using a dataset on food delivery.
The following variables are included in the dataset and explanation for each variable is provided below:
• hour_of_day (0-23): Hour when order was placed
• is_weekend (0/1): Whether order was placed on weekend, if the order is placed on weekend is 1,
otherwise 0
• is_rush_hour (0/1): Whether order was during rush hour, if the order is placed in rush hour is 1,
otherwise 0
• rain_intensity: Amount of rainfall during delivery
• temperature: Temperature in Celsius
• order_value: Cost of the order
• items_count: Number of items ordered
• distance_km: Delivery distance in kilometers
Page 8
• restaurant_load: Restaurant capacity utilization (%)
• driver_experience: Driver's experience in months
• delay_minutes: Delivery delay in minutes
• is_cancelled: Whether order was cancelled, if order is cancelled is 1, otherwise 0

As a Junior Data Analyst at Doorstep Food, your task is to develop strategies to reduce order cancellations
and delivery delays to boost business performance and customer satisfaction. Your manager has requested
insights on these strategies, including how cancellations and delays affect customer satisfaction.
Your role involves using R for exploratory data analysis to identify patterns and relationships that influence
order cancellations and delivery delays. The primary goal is to enhance business operations, improve
customer satisfaction, and position the company as a market leader in food delivery.
You will prepare a detailed report (maximum 1,000 words) to guide management decisions. The report should
include:
1. Goal: Define the goal of your exploratory data analysis. Apply your broader understanding of factors
influencing delivery delays and cancellations from online research to generate insights in your
analysis. No specific number of articles is required for your research.
2. Descriptive Statistics: Present descriptive statistics of relevant variables using the 'moments'
package, focusing on tools covered in the course. Discuss patterns in cancellations and delivery
delays, their acceptability, and what they reveal about service quality.
3. Visual Data Analysis: Use bar plots and line charts to show relationships among variables. Identify
patterns in delivery delays and cancellations, peak cancellation hours, and trends between distance
and delivery rate, and in cancellation rates.
4. Outlier Impact: Analyse outliers using box plots with relevant variables in line with your project goal,
and identifying the exact number of outliers with appropriate R code.
5. Findings and Insights: Interpret your findings and provide actionable insights from your visualizations
and descriptive statistics geared to reducing the delivery delays and cancellations and improve
customer satisfaction.
6. Appendix: You must include the R codes that you have used for your analysis.

4.3 TIPS FOR ANALYSIG THE DATA

You may consider the following advice on exploring the dataset:

1. It is important to emphasize that there is not only one correct answer to the assignment. There are
number of different dimensions of the data to explore, and some aspects and dimensions of the data are
likely to be more useful than others. Thus, it is important that prior to starting your assignment, that you
systematically explore the different variables in the dataset.
2. Remember, it is important to highlight the relevant factors responsible for your analysis and it is critical
to place detailed arguments appropriately. This should be the key focus of your analysis. Just providing
commentary on visualization is not enough. You need to relate the findings of visualization, and
descriptive statistical analysis in a thorough manner in terms of factors responsible for delays in food
delivery and cancellation of orders. Always remember, the ability to relate analytics to the business issue
is fundamental. It is not just a technical issue; it is a business issue.
3. To help focus your analysis and insights, think of potential factors that could drive delivery
cancellations and delays; and how these could impact on customer satisfaction? This can help provide
greater structure for your analysis.
4. Highlight the relevant factors responsible for your analysis and place detailed arguments
appropriately. Relate the findings of visualization and descriptive statistical tools to your analysis.
5. Although you may create many graphs for your assessment as you deem appropriate to better
understand the data and you only want to include figures that support your main findings. These graphs
should summarize the relationships that you are reporting on or analysing. You are expected to do
appropriate number of bar plot, and line chart, to support your analysis. And
6. Also look for potential outliers in the dataset through box plot. What can you infer from these outliers?
Should the outliers be included in your analysis of the data? Any decisions made about including or not
including outliers should be justified in the report.
7. Remember that your conclusions should be well supported by the undertaken data exploration,
descriptive statistics, and created visualisations. You should also outline any key assumptions in your
data-driven conclusions and acknowledge limitations.
8. To ensure the rigour of your visualization and subsequent analysis, apply the frameworks and R codes
discussed in class. We are not expecting the use of analytical methods beyond the scope of this course.
9. Academic integrity must be maintained. Please note your answer and submission must be your
original work. Your report must not have any AI generated answer. Any deviation from this requirement
will attract heavy penalty and among others, can lead to failing the course. Remember, Turnitin can
generate the degree of similarity and AI generated answers.

10. You must sign an academic integrity declaration confirming that it is your original work (word count
will not apply for this). This declaration should be in the cover page of your report and include the
statement with your signature:

“I declare that the work I have submitted relating to this assessment task is completely of my own
and I confirm that I have complied with all requirements of UNSW Academic Honesty and plagiarism
policy”.

5.6 Tips for analysing the data

You should consider the following advice regarding this assessment task:

1.It is important to emphasise that there is not only one correct answer to the assignment. There
are many different models that can be put forward to effectively address your project goals. Thus,
it is important that you clearly identify the analytics methods and set out a systematic,
comprehensive plan in line with your project goals. Always remember, the ability to relate analytics
to the business issue is fundamental. It is not just a technical issue; it is a business issue.

2.To ensure the rigour of the model development and subsequent analysis, apply the frameworks
discussed in class. We are not expecting the use of analytical methods beyond the scope of this course.

Page 14
3. Remember that your conclusions should be well supported by your created models and analysis. You
should also outline any key assumptions in your data-driven conclusions and acknowledge limitations.

4. In terms of factors responsible for improving customer satisfaction by reducing delivery delays and
cancellations, you should use knowledge and insights gained through undertaking online research
and making intuitive assumptions. There is no limit set how many articles you should include in
your online research. Remember, business analysts should work like designers, exploring
possible alternatives through understanding specific business requirements.

5. Where appropriate, connect findings from your individual report to your group report.

6. The report must follow the following format sequence:

 The cover page of the report must include your project title, your name, zID, and the following
