IMPORTANT – FINAL ASSESSMENT EXERCISE

Dear students,

As you are already aware, there will be no final exam as such for BUS2108 this year.  We will however have a timed 'final assessment exercise' which you will complete at home and submit via turnitin.

The date and time for this final assessment exercise is:

Monday May 3rd, 18:00 - 22:00 (Hong Kong time)

Please take note of this date and time, and keep it blocked for this activity.

Note that the final assessment will be an open-book activity and you will be free to use your textbook, notes, internet sources or whatever to answer.  However the usual rules regarding plagiarism apply and you will not be allowed to make contact with any other students during the assessment hours.

We will talk in a lot more detail about the final assessment in our last class of the semester and will provide full details at that time.
