Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements. Students could expect to spend a total of about 300 hours on the social enterprise project (this includes face-to-face contact with the supervisor, contact with the research sponsoring organisation and self-directed research).Learning Activities Summary
Students will be self-directed and, while monitored and guided by their academic supervisor, largely autonomous.
Students will be responsible for managing their time and work-flow.
Students’ learning will predominantly result from exploration of relevant literature, collaboration with the research sponsor, critical reflection, and the analysis of research data.
The academic supervisor’s role will be to facilitate that learning and provide critical feedback in relation to the process and substance of their research. -
Assessment
The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
- Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
- Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
- Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
- Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Research Report and Presentation
Students will prepare a research report outlining the problem being addressed, research design, analysis and findings, conclusions and recommendations for action. Students will make a presentation on their project describing the approach taken and its outcomes. The focus of the presentation will be on why certain actions were taken and decisions made, and the effect of these.
Presentations will be made to peers, academics and the research ‘sponsors’, as relevant. Each presentation will be no more than 30 minutes including time for questions.
Individual Refection Journal
The individual journal will map the learning journey of each student participating in the Social Enterprise Project. Insights, learnings, questions, ‘Aha!’ moments, critical reflections on theory and practice, in relation to the action research approach and systems thinking, leadership, accounting, marketing, management, finance, economics, the global context and strategy. The whole MBA is conceived as a personal journey, and this capstone research project provides an opportunity to take stock and to articulate new levels of understanding and self-awareness.
Submission
Timing of submission for both the research report and the presentation will be agreed with the supervisor. Any extension to agreed
deadlines must be agreed in advance with the supervisor (and with the research sponsor, where appropriate). Failure to meet an agreed deadline will attract a penalty of up to 5% of the relevant assessment per day past the deadline.
Course Grading
Grades for your performance in this course will be awarded in accordance with the following scheme:

Student Feedback
The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness
Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
