This is an assessed piece of work that will account for 30% of the total marks available for this course. This is a team assignment with marks allocated equally to each member of any given group.
Each group is to hand in one word-processed solution not exceeding 2,500 words plus numerical appendices. It is a requirement that a CD is included that contains the underlying data and that shows all major calculations. A word count must be placed on the front cover of the document; 2 marks (from the 30 available) will be deducted if there is no word count and 5 marks will be deducted if the examiner feels that there has been a deliberate attempt to give misleading information about the length of the assignment.
Submission
The submission deadline is April 19, 2018. Coursework must be submitted by 14:00 pm on the submission deadline. One copy must be submitted via Turnitin UK on Learning Central and one hardcopy must be submitted to the PG Hub. If you do not submit both copies then a mark of zero will be given. Note that late submissions will also be given a mark of zero.
Dealing with problems within the group
If there are any problems within a working group, then students should write a brief email (no more than 150 words) to Khelifa Mazouz (mazouzk@cardiff.ac.uk) by the 30 th March at the latest. At the discretion of the module leader, the group may be called together to discuss these problems at a later date. If problems persist in the final days of the assignment, then students should submit a formal statement in writing. If this process reveals that there is a group member who has provided insufficient positive contribution to the assignment, then the right is reserved to give that student a mark below that of their group.
We also strongly recommend that you minute group meetings and make notes of who contributed what to the assignment.
