Aviatin Policy
Airline Policy & Strategy
Assessment 1
Academic Year 2012-2013
Formulating Analysing & Researching Policy
The first assessment for this module asks you to deconstruct a piece of tourism policy. It draws directly on the research paradigm outlined by Fidgeon & Ritchie (2005). In addition it develops the self-directed activities you have been recommended to undertake in your study pack together with our work in lectures and tutorials. As a consequence you should be familiar with all of the tasks being assessed in this exercise.
Before you launch into the assessment, read the policy document you have been given thoroughly. In addition the assessment also requires that you find some additional detailed information. Check that you have it to hand. Engage with the literature here. This requires you to reference material and include this in a bibliography at the back of this assessment
You have seven weeks to complete this task. The deadline for submission is 12 noon on Friday 22nd March 2013. Answer in the space provided below each question. Alternatively if you wish you can replicate the assessment on your own PC and submit a word processed version.
Completed scripts should be submitted to the Faculty Office (TC375) with an accompanying cover sheet. An electronic copy of your work should also be submitted through Turn-it-in by the same date and time.
Remember, this should be treated as an individual task. Identical scripts will be treated as plagiarism and will be dealt with accordingly.
This exercise will count as the equivalent of 40% to your overall assessment mark.
If there are any problems see me at the end of your lecture or tutorial or alternatively make an appointment to see me at a mutually convenient time.
