$1.$ Instructions$/$expectations on a quality academic submission:

$-$Clear sub topics and subheadings with clear, logical organization and structure.

$-$Edit your work for grammar and sentence flow before submitting.

$2.$ Cite your sources in the text when:

$-$stats and$/$or info are stated e$.$g$.-2010$ net profit of $$1$ billion $($Smith$,2011),$

$-$a source is quoted, "the firm is a leader in the industry" $($Smith$,2011$:$25)$ and$/$or

$-$a major assertion is made. Referencing is an evidence of the research conducted.

$-$Always state the source when including tables and graphs.

References citations is evidence of the research made to support assertions but the student should have his$/$her own analysis and conclusions. The student's "voice" should come out in the report.

These are general guidelines and instructions and so the student has the flexibility to adapt it according to the specific circumstances of the chosen subject.

$*$This is to reiterate that each group is expected to do its own independent research and report writing. Thus, it is possible that while some companies or topics maybe reported more than once as case studies, NO Two Reports should be remarkably similar$-.$

It is presumed that each student of every group is aware of the College policies and rules on academic policies. The instructor will deduct marks according to his best judgment in failure of a group to follow rules and$/$or manner of presentation such as severe grammatical deficiencies.
