    Assessment Detail
    ASSESSMENTS DETAILS

    Each student will choose a wine brand website (from anywhere in the world – but you must be able to buy wine via that site) and using the application of theory and research critique the overall quality and communication of brand values, attractiveness and likely effectiveness of the site as a mechanism for the sale of wine online via that site. Criteria for the assessment will include, but is not restricted to:

    1. Context;
    2. Content;
    3. Ease of navigation;
    4. Overall attractiveness/brand clarity;

    2. Direct Wine Sales and Promotion Strategy – Collaborative – 30%

    In groups of 3 or 4 each group must develop a strategic direct wine sales plan. This includes using media and other forms of communication to ‘drive’ wine consumers to the wine brand website. This strategy may rely on the existing brand changing some aspects of their existing website (e.g. to make buying easier or more engaging). It isn’t enough to ‘tinker’ around the edges of an existing brand strategy. Students must demonstrate their abilities to use the theory and concepts discussed in class and the findings of their own literature research to critically assess existing strategy and provide some recommendations aimed and achieving wine sales online and encouraging repeat sales.
    The brands students can choose from are the following: SC Pannell, Dowie Doole, Cullen Wines, Tyrrell's, Two Hands, Seppeltsfield, Seville Estate, Mt Langhi Ghiran, Voyager Estate, and Scarborough.
    Students will be rewarded for succinct logical argument reflecting engagement with relevant readings, text and other relevant materials, correct referencing, appropriateness of references and overall presentation (clarity, spelling, grammar and punctuation).
    The word limit for the final submitted version of this component is 1,800 words presented on 2 landscape orientated pages. The report MUST be presented in poster format according to the guidelines provided on the My Uni website. Students are expected to use between 10 and 20 references in their report. References do not count towards the word/page limit.
    All posters will be presented by the respective groups in Week 10. Failure to display the poster will result in a mark of 0 (zero) for this component.
    Support to the students for the development of the group poster will be provided throughout the course. If students would like to receive such support, they need to contact the course coordinator to book a suitable time.
    Students are discouraged to attempt the group poster individually and will be allowed only under exceptional circumstances (i.e. commitments that would prevent group-work) which must be discussed AS SOON AS POSSIBLE with the course coordinator. Individual assignments submitted without the approval of the course coordinator will receive a mark of 0 (zero).
    The posters must be submitted via the MyUni website before Sunday 4th April 11:59pm (ACST).
    Posters must be submitted in one of the following formats: .pdf, .doc, .docx, .ppt, .pptx
    Students must retain a copy of all assignments submitted.

    Lecturers can refuse to accept assignments, which do not have a signed acknowledgement of the University’s policy on plagiarism.


    Late Assignment Submission
    Students are expected to submit their work by the due date to maintain a fair and equitable system. Extensions will generally only be given for medical or other serious reasons. All requests for extensions must be emailed to the lecturer in charge of the course before the due date. Each request will be assessed on its merits. A late assignment (without prior arrangement) will be penalised by a 5% mark reduction for each day that it is late.

    3. Peer Review of Collaborative Assessment – Individual – 10%

    Before Week 10 class starts each student will be randomly assignment to evaluate one poster he/she he/she didn't work on. Each student will have approximately 15 minutes (i.e. the time necessary for the group to present the poster) to look at the poster he/she is assigned to, ask questions to the groups who created it.
    With this information each student will be required to write a peer review of the poster he/she has been assigned to.
    Each peer review should take into account the following aspects of the poster:
    1. Content (250-350 words)
    2. Style & Presentation (100-150 words)
    3. Referencing (max 50 words)
    Failure to conduct the peer reviews on the brand the student is assigned to will result in a grade of 0 (zero) for this assessment.
    The Peer Review must be submitted via the MyUni website before Sunday 11th April 11:59pm (ACST).
    The Peer Review must be submitted in one of the following formats: .pdf, .doc, .docx

    4. Problem Solving Exercise – Individual – 35%

    Each student will be randomly assigned to one scenario in Week 10 of the course. This scenario is going to impact the brand the students worked on for their group poster. Different scenarios will be prepared and students will be randomly assigned to one of them.
    Failure to discuss the scenario the student is assigned to will result in a grade of 0 (zero) for this assessment.
    Each student has to create a video of him/her explaining how the assigned scenario is going to impact on their brand, and the marketing strategies/actions they would adopt to keep their brand successfully in business. As the students explain, justify and defend their arguments, they have to cite the relevant literature discussed throughout the course, but they can extend their discussion using other academic and industry references, books, etc.
    The video must be no longer than 10 minutes (2,000 words equivalent). Videos longer than 10 minutes will receive a 15% mark deduction per minute for every minute exceeding the 10-minute limit.
    The videos must be submitted via the MyUni website before Sunday 2nd May 11:59pm (ACST).
    Students have to make it perfectly clear who they are by showing their student ID card at the beginning of the video. Failure to show their student ID card will make it impossible to verify student identity, thus resulting in a grade of 0 (zero) being awarded for the problem-solving exercise.
    Before submitting the videos, students must ensure that they have created a back-up copy of their video.

    Late Assignment Submission
    Students are expected to submit their work by the due date to maintain a fair and equitable system. Extensions will generally only be given for medical or other serious reasons.

  • Student Feedback

    The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
