BUSN20019 Professional Project

This is an individual, written assessment, to be completed in report format. You are required to write around 3,000 words (+/- 10%), excluding title page, preliminaries, tables, figures, reference list and appendices. The report requires in-text referencing and a full reference list in APA style, with evidence that you have critically read and integrated a minimum of 20 suitable scholarly references. Without 20 scholarly references, you will not get a pass in the relevant marking criteria. The purpose of the original assessment 2 was to present the final report of the Professional Project you proposed in Assignment 1. That report should have built upon both components of your Assessment 1 and it should be developed with the help of the tutor/co-ordinator feedback. In this case (SA), you must select a completely new topic but based on the same instructions and criteria of marking as assessment 2. Some reminders of the assessment 2 task (in this case SA task) are as follows but you will need to refresh your memory by navigating and studying other resources in the T2 2019 Unit Moodle site In order to successfully complete Assessment 2 (SA), you are required to carry out the investigation and produce a professional research report that shows that you have followed through from finding a research question to answering that question and developing recommendations that arise from your findings. The report will follow the typical structure of a research report and will need to include the following:

• Project title

• Introduction (which must include some justification of your topic and your project's aim and research question(s))

• Critical literature review

• A detailed presentation of how you carried out your project (commensurate with a 'Methods'chapter)

• Findings from your secondary data analysis

• Discussion of findings in light of your previously reviewed literature

• Conclusion, including recommendations and limitations
