Submission guidelines - You are required to submit your final report via the assignment activity module called “Case Study Report Submission” via Turnitin tool on the Moodle course page. You will only be able to submit your assessment ONCE. Maximum number of points for your assignment is 25. This last project is a Project Management case from Harvard. Each student needs to access and buy his or her own copy of the case, so is quite affordable.

Report Submission: This time the Final Report must be submitted using Turnitin. This portal allows only one submission, so get it right before you try. Only one report per group is permitted, so it should be up to your PM to do it. This portal also hosts some very powerful algorithms for detecting plagiarism, so be warned to not include someone else’s material or words. Some duplication is expected, but the software is very clever and will find improper use of someone else’s work. NB. You do not need to create your own Turnitin account, the link will be provided on Moodle.

Referencing: As per previous instructions Harvard of IEEE styles are recommended. It is important to properly cite in your discussion so when PM prepare report they do not accidently pull unreferenced material that will then be reported as copied. So you do not only need to provide a footnote, but more importantly – in text citation. In-text citation examples – Harvard Business School Case Study. APA in-text citations include the author’s last name, the year of publication, and the page number (for quotes), either as part of the text of your paper or in parentheses.

FORMAT - The final submission must be in the form of a report with appropriate referencing styles. The report should consist of chapters and sub-chapters that address all the required, but do NOT use the task number as chapter. For instant, ‘Chapter 1 – TASK 1’ is not permitted! Important Note- State any additional assumptions (with justifications) that your team used throughout the analysis. Do not only name innovations, challenges or anything else that is required. We need to see deeper analyses. Report Guidance: The final report needs to identify the main issues in the case study, present an insightful and thorough analysis of all the identified issues and provide a logical and well-researched diagnosis with supporting arguments. Guidelines on how you should format your report are provided in Appendix A.
