Assignment 1 Specifications
Purpose:

Students will be required to apply relevant theoretical concepts with the use of practical examples in most cases in a written research paper and discuss their topic via a live presentation.

Topics and presentation schedule:
Organise yourselves into groups of not more than 4 students and not less than 3 students. Please choose from one of the following topics from the list (see below). Topics will be allocated on a 'first come- first served basis' and will be reserved by your lecturer in writing via email.
Please ensure that you include a list of all of the group members in the email. In the event of too many students choosing the same topic, preference will be given to those students who have secured the topic first and subsequent groups will be required to choose another topic.
Research on the broad topic is a group activity and each student must contribute to that work. Each student in the group will then research, in depth an individual component drawn from the broad research topic.
1. Written report — worth 20% of your final grade and must be submitted Week 10 at 5pm. The written report should begin with the broad research topic which is then followed by each individual component identified by the individual student who prepared it.
Your report is to be written as a business report. It must include; • Executive summary • Table of contents • Section headings • Paragraphing • Page numbers • Reference list at the end of the report
2. Presentation — worth 10% of your final grade and will be presented at a date chosen by the lecturer commencing week 5. These presentations must be organised as a business presentation. Use of visual aids is encouraged.
Strict adherence to the 10 minute limit is expected. You should allocate your time to allow for a very short introduction on the broad topic followed by a few minutes allocated to each student to present their individual component
