Participation.
Active and informed participation in all aspects of your studies is important for your overall success in the MComm. In MGMT5050, 20% of your final mark is the result of your participation. There are two components to your final participation mark, ideally you will participate in both:
- Active and engaged participation and/or use of materials in Skill Development Workshops
Preparation for, and active participation in, the Skills Development Workshops is a vital component of the learning in this subject and as such students who prepare and participate in the classroom will be rewarded. Participation may involve taking part in: activities, small group discussion, short informal presentations to the class, answering questions, class discussion.
Simply attending the Skills Development Workshops without getting involved in discussion and activities is of little value either to you or your classmates and will result in a minimal participation mark
B: Online discussions
Preparation for and as part of the active participation in the overall course you need to engage with your classmates in a discussion each week. This will provide you with the best foundation to learn in MGMT5050. Each week (including week 1) there will be a case study and set readings that you will need to read and prepare. Each week your facilitator will post a discussion thread which you are required to answer AND engage with.

Assignment Submission Procedure
Each individual written Assignment will be submitted via the appropriate Turnitin box or Moodle assignment (for the video) on the course website.
Submission of the assignment in Turnitin is taken as indication of your agreement to the following statement. This electronic consent replaces the assignment cover sheet.
I/we declare that this assessment item is my/our own work, except where acknowledged, and has not been submitted for academic credit elsewhere, and acknowledge that the assessor of this item may, for the purpose of assessing this item:
Reproduce this assessment item and provide a copy to another member of the University; and/or, Communicate a copy of this assessment item to a plagiarism checking service (which may then retain a copy of the assessment item on its database for the purpose of future plagiarism checking).
I/we certify that I/we have read and understood the University Rules in respect of Student Academic Misconduct.
Assessment Feedback
Feedback on student performance from formative and summative assessment tasks will be provided to students in a timely manner. Assessment tasks completed within the teaching period of a course, other than a final assessment, will be assessed and students provided with feedback, with or without a provisional result, within 10 working days of submission, under normal circumstances.
All assessments will be marked electronically using GradeMark. All feedback and marks will be available to students via the links on the Moodle site.
Late Submissions
Assignments must be submitted on time. A penalty of 10% per day of the marks available for that assignment will apply for work received after the due date. If you suffer serious illness or misadventure that affects your course progress you should contact the Lecturer In Charge as soon as possible. Where this impacts on your ability to meet an assigned deadline you need top apply for a special consideration as described below. No extensions will be granted except in the case of serious illness or misadventure or bereavement, which must be supported with documentary evidence.
Special Consideration
You can apply for special consideration when illness or other circumstances beyond your
control, interfere with your assessment performance (to apply see Special Consideration on
the UNSW Current Students page). Special Consideration is primarily intended to provide you
with an extra opportunity to demonstrate the level of performance of which you are capable.
Special Consideration applications will be assessed centrally by the Case Review Team within
Student Lifecycle. The Case Review team will update the online application with the outcome
and add any relevant comments.
Please note the following:
Applications can only be made through Online Services in myUNSW. Applications will not be accepted by teaching staff. The lecturer-in-charge/course coordinator will be automatically notified when you lodge an online application for special consideration.
Applying for special consideration does not automatically mean that you will be granted a supplementary exam or other concession.
If you experience illness or misadventure in the lead up to an exam or assessment, you must submit an application for special consideration, either prior to the examination taking place, or prior to the assessment submission deadline, except where illness or misadventure prevent you from doing so.
If you sit the exam/submit an assignment, you are declaring yourself well enough to do so and are unable to subsequently apply for special consideration.
If you become unwell on the day of the exam, you must provide evidence dated within 24 hours of the exam, with your application.
The current provisions will continue for exceptional circumstances, for example, if a student falls sick during an exam. Other exceptions will continue to be examined on a case by case basis by the Student Lifecycle team.

Special consideration requests do not allow the awarding of additional marks to students.
Further information on Business School policy and procedure, as well as supplementary exam dates for the current term, can be found under ‘Special Consideration’ on the Policies and Support page.
Academic Integrity
As a student at UNSW you are expected to display academic integrity in your work and interactions. Where a student breaches the UNSW Student Code with respect to academic
integrity, the University may take disciplinary action under the Student Misconduct Procedure.
To assist you in understanding what academic integrity means, and how to ensure that you do comply with the UNSW Student Code, it is strongly recommended that you complete the Working with Academic Integrity module before submitting your first assessment task. It is a free, online self-paced Moodle module that should take
