Your individual presentation should be approximately 15 minutes long with an additional 5 minutes afterwards for questions.

Referencing

Your assignments need to be strengthened by the appropriate use of academic material. However, this material must be properly attributed or referenced. In addition to providing a comprehensive bibliography of all sources used, you must reference your material throughout your assignments. Standard Nottingham Business School practice is to use the Harvard Referencing Method. Details of this approach can be obtained in a leaflet entitled “Citing References”, which was provided at your Induction.

The NTU Library and Learning Resources department has a guide on how to use Harvard referencing via their website. Go to http://www.ntu.ac.uk/llr/, click help and support in the menu to the left of the screen, then choose referencing and plagiarism. Scroll down to the third paragraph and click on citing references a guide for users.

Assignment submissions

You must submit assignments on or before the due date indicated. Please ensure that your assignments are clearly marked with your name, the module and programme details and the word count for your assignment. All assignments should be submitted electronically to the relevant module learning room in NOW via the Dropbox. In the event of any problems with this please contact your course administrator who will log your assignments and forward them to the module leader at NBS for marking. Please also note that the Dropbox will only accept one submitted document, therefore please ensure any appendices you include are contained within the body of your assignment. Please put your name, N number and Professional Leadership Development as the header/ footer.

We aim to return marked assignments within three weeks of submission. However, this may not always be possible if, for example, staff are teaching at remote sites or are unavailable on other university business. In such instances, the programme team will advise course members of when to expect returned work.
