USyd's intro-to-the-profession unit — ethics, teamwork, tooling and communication, graded by a standards-based hurdle model (not percentages).悉大计算机大一的「入行」课 —— 伦理、团队协作、工具链与沟通，用「达标/Strong」等级制评分，不是百分比加权。INFO1111 is a 6-credit-point Semester 1 unit run by the School of Computer Science. It builds the professional skills a computing degree assumes: ethical reasoning, IP and codes of conduct, version control and command-line tooling, technical communication (LaTeX), problem-solving, and working in small teams. It has no prerequisites and is assessed against achievement levels across three themes rather than weighted marks. This guide is built from 65 real INFO1111 course materials in the AskSia Library.
INFO1111 是计算机科学学院开设的 6 学分、学期 1 课程，专门补齐计算机学位默认你该会的「职业基本功」：伦理判断、知识产权与行为准则、版本控制与命令行工具、技术写作（LaTeX）、问题求解，以及小组协作。本课无先修要求，评分按三大主题的「达成等级」判定，而非百分比加权。本指南基于AskSia Library 中 65 份真实 INFO1111 课程材料整理而成。

What INFO1111 is aboutINFO1111 讲什么
INFO1111 (Computing 1A Professionalism) is a 1000-level, 6-credit-point unit in the University of Sydney's School of Computer Science, offered in Semester 1 with no prerequisites. Rather than teaching programming, it introduces the foundations of professional practice in computing: applying ethical frameworks to IT issues, intellectual property and professional codes, project and team methodologies, technical tooling (command line, version control with GitHub, LaTeX, build tools), problem-solving and debugging, and confident technical communication. The back half surveys the major specialisations — Computer Science, Software Development, Cyber Security, Data Science — to help students plan their degree and career.
INFO1111（计算 1A：职业素养）是悉尼大学计算机科学学院的 1000 级、6 学分课程，学期 1 开设，无先修要求。它不教编程，而是搭建计算机行业的「职业基本功」：用伦理框架分析 IT 问题、知识产权与职业行为准则、项目与团队方法论、技术工具链（命令行、GitHub 版本控制、LaTeX、构建工具）、问题求解与调试，以及自信的技术沟通。课程后半段带学生纵览计算机各大方向 —— 计算机科学、软件开发、网络安全、数据科学 —— 帮助规划学位与职业路径。

How INFO1111 is assessedINFO1111 怎么考核
Final exam: Yes期末考试：有| Component考核项 | Weight占比 | Note说明 |
|---|---|---|
| Knowledge — Foundation (in-person quizzes / online quiz)知识 · 基础（线下/线上小测） | Hurdle (pass/fail) | Short in-person tests across the semester (e.g. weeks 7, 9, 11). A hurdle: you must reach the required level before attempting the Knowledge Advanced task.学期中的若干次线下小测（如第 7、9、11 周）。属硬性门槛：达标后才能挑战「知识 · 进阶」任务。 |
| Knowledge — Advanced (final exam + oral)知识 · 进阶（期末考 + 口试） | Achievement level | A supervised final written exam (foundation + advanced components, ~1–2 hours, AI prohibited) plus a short oral exam, taken in the formal exam period. Graded by level, not percentage.正式考试周进行：有监考的期末笔试（含基础+进阶部分，约 1–2 小时，禁用 AI）外加一次简短口试。按等级评定，非百分比。 |
| Skills — Foundation (group assignment)技能 · 基础（小组作业） | Hurdle (pass/fail) | Group practical work spanning the semester with staged submissions (e.g. weeks 7, 10, 13), plus an oral review. A hurdle for the Skills Advanced task.贯穿全学期的小组实操，分阶段提交（如第 7、10、13 周），并配口头答辩。是「技能 · 进阶」的前置门槛。 |
| Skills — Advanced (group assignment)技能 · 进阶（小组作业） | Achievement level | Extended group work building on the foundation task; submissions later in semester (e.g. weeks 10, 13). Graded by level.在基础任务之上延伸的小组作业，学期后段提交（如第 10、13 周）。按等级评定。 |
| Self-Learning — Foundation (portfolio / journal)自主学习 · 基础（作品集/学习日志） | Hurdle (pass/fail) | Individual continuous-assessment portfolio with staged submissions across the semester. A hurdle for the Self-Learning Advanced task.个人持续性评估作品集，全学期分阶段提交。是「自主学习 · 进阶」的前置门槛。 |
| Self-Learning — Advanced (portfolio / journal)自主学习 · 进阶（作品集/学习日志） | Achievement level | Individual portfolio extending the foundation task, with oral review. Graded by level.在基础任务之上延伸的个人作品集，含口头答辩。按等级评定。 |
| Weeks 1–3 participation rating第 1–3 周参与度评定 | Early-feedback (pass/fail) | An early individual engagement check around Week 3 to give students early feedback.约第 3 周的个人参与度检查，用于及早给学生反馈。 |
Standards-based hurdle model — Foundation tasks are pass/fail hurdles, then Knowledge/Skills/Self-Learning Advanced tasks are graded by achievement level (not OK / OK / almost Strong / Strong). There IS a supervised final exam (the Knowledge Advanced task), but it carries no percentage weight — your grade is set by the levels reached across the three themes.
标准制 + 门槛制评分 —— 三个「基础」任务是 pass/fail 硬门槛，之后「知识/技能/自主学习」三个「进阶」任务按达成等级（not OK / OK / almost Strong / Strong）评定。确有一场监考期末考（即「知识 · 进阶」任务），但不计百分比权重；最终成绩由三大主题达到的等级决定。

Test yourself: INFO1111 practice questions自测一下：INFO1111 练习题
- A Pass (around 50) — Foundation hurdles cleared, but no Advanced level reached to lift the grade
- A Distinction — clearing two Foundation tasks is enough for a high grade
- An automatic Fail — you must attempt every Advanced task to pass
- The percentage marks from each Foundation task are summed to a weighted total
- 及格（约 50 分）—— 基础门槛已过，但没拿到进阶等级来提升成绩
- 优等（Distinction）—— 过两个基础任务就足以拿高分
- 直接挂科 —— 必须尝试每个进阶任务才能及格
- 把各基础任务的百分比分数加总成加权总分
