 COURSEWORK ASSESSMENT 2014-15

 The coursework requirement is to form groups of 3 (exceptionally 4) members and to write a 2000 word report to the management of the company (excluding Appendices and references).  Groups of two or five are not permitted and there will be no adjustment to the mark to reflect the numbers in the group.  Procedures apply where unequal contribution across group members is an issue.  Any such issue should be recorded in the learning log and communicated to the module convener no later than two weeks before the date of submission.  The membership of groups should be communicated to the module convener by Thursday 6 November.  One member of the group is required to email the names and student numbers of the group members to John Forker by the due date.

If your group is short of members or you are unallocated then inform John Forker as soon as possible.  Templates of the learning log and assessment criteria will be available in the coursework folder on SyD.
