Description of Module Assessment

1: Group Presentation weighted 20%
Oral Presentations (20 minutes)
Students will be required to work in a group on a case study of small business in the field of health, exercise and rehabilitation which encourages them to consider the relationship between different aspects of business organisation and management. With each student contributing equally to the presentation, in group sizes of 4-5, each student in the group will receive the same mark.

2: Report weighted 80%
Written assignment focusing on the group's case study
From the issues identified in the group assignment (assessment 1 - group presentation of a case study in business), students will be required to submit a 1,500 word business report on how the organisation will deal with the issues identified within the group presentation for assessment 1. The first 250 words of this assessment (assessment 2) will include a reflection on the group presentation, as performed in assessment 1- the group business case study evaluation.
