CW Coursework Submission Information for Students

Introduction

This document has been written to assist you should your course tutor have advised you to use the cw system to submit coursework. If you have been advised to submit coursework via a different method please follow the instructions of your course tutor and not this document.

Submitting Coursework

You will need to ensure all your files are located on your Unix fileserver (which can be Linux server avon, bann, clyde, mersey, roach or severn, or Solaris server robin, tuck, much, scarlet or marian). One way to do this is to log into a lab machine and copy files onto your H: drive.

  • Log into you home Unix machine.
  • Change to the directory containing the files or subdirectories you wish to submit.
  • Type:
       cw submit [list of files or directories]
    Where list of files or directories is the name of a single file or a list of file/directory names separated by spaces.
     
  • Select the ID for the coursework you are submitting.
  • Enter y to confirm.
  • A receipt number will be displayed and you will receive an emailed receipt also.

Should you wish to change your submission before the deadline, you can resubmit using the same steps. Resubmissions will completely replace your original submission so make sure you submit all files at once. Resubmitting after the deadline will usually result in a penalty for missing the deadline even if your original submission was before the deadline.
