Group work rationale and management and process for recognising individual contribution) (where
applicable)
Team working skills is a key skills gap that has been identified by Skills Active, hence why the proposal is
being delivered in a group format.
To recognise that individuals may make different levels of contribution to the proposal there will be a peer
group assessment form that will be completed by each student that reflects on the contribution made by each
group member.
The tutor must be kept informed at all times in relation to ‘problems’ that the group encounters. If a member of
the group is not making an equitable contribution then the tutor must be informed ASAP so as to take
appropriate action.
Weighted Assessment Criteria:
Your task will be graded against the following weighted criteria:
Proposal 1 – understanding and knowledge of event business and venue management (25%)

the assignment.
Feedback & Feed-forward Strategy and how students can access their Feedback
Feedback for the proposals will be provided three weeks after its submission. This will be through the use of
electronic feedback via Blackboard and will give some areas that the students could have improved. Students
will also get feedback on their proposals and their development throughout the module during seminars.

If the proposal fails to achieve a mark of 40%, then the students will have an opportunity to deliver a new updated
version of the same proposal in an attempt to achieve the pass grade. This work will be capped at 40%
and must to be presented within two weeks of the original deadline. Please take on board comments from
your feedback if you need to re-submit.
