Assignment tasks
TASKS will be contemporary, case studies,, on products or services in existing or new international markets, chosen by you.
They are about theory applied in practice.
There are two elements.
The first is small group work – a formative assignment, the second builds on this learning and is an individual piece of research and report.
The detailed tasks will be distributed in week 2 and available on Moodle from that date. There will be a briefing session in week 2.
There will be feedback on the presentations in week 10 to enable students to learn from the process and the outcomes and take that learning into the individual task.
The percentages allocated reflect the effort required in completing the task. The division of marks is to guide you as to time, effort and approximate word count.
The assignment will be marked according to the marking schedule in the marking grids.
Assessment criteria
See learning outcomes assessed and the relevant pages on Moodle for the weighting of marks for the different assessed criteria.
