Assessment Elements
- 5 class assignmentsParticipation and contribution: To a large extent, learning in this class is related to your willingness to expose your insights and viewpoints to the critical judgment of your classmates. Thus, each one of you is expected to contribute to class discussions. This includes preparation for class by doing the assigned reading, thoroughly preparing any assigned problems, and presenting your opinions or summaries of material covered in class. The basis for class participation is quality, not quantity. If you do not actively participate, you will receive a very low participation grade even if you attend every class. We will assess participation and engagement during synchronous sessions using following points: - Consistently using video on your MS Teams - Offer ideas via MS Teams chat box - Voluntarily propose to share your screen with examples, analyses, or other content - Add links to the relevant online resources to the chat box - Use “raise hand” function to jump into conversation - Participate in polls and surveys - Be curious and raise clarifying questions - Consistently participate in class-related online conversations and activities
- Group project (Segmentation, Targeting, and Positioning)Group project is in the form of group final presentation (6-7 students in the group). Each group should choose a company / brand / product to take as an example, work out the Marketing Strategy for the chosen company , and make a presentation with the findings (20 min).
- Final examExam form: The exam is conducted as test using asynchronous proctoring. Asynchronous proctoring means that all the student's actions will be "observed" by the computer during the exam. The process of examination is recorded, analysed by artificial intelligence and a person (proctor). Please, be careful and follow the instructions carefully! Platform: The exam is conducted on the StartExam - an online platform for testing of various complexity levels. The link to pass the examination task will be available to the student in the RUZ system. Student should join the exam link 15 minutes before the start. The student's computer should meet the requirements: Web browser: Google Chrome official build version 72 or higher Operating system: Windows 7/8/10, macOS 10.12 "Sierra" or higher Computer and processor: 1.8 GHz or higher (32-bit or 64-bit) Memory: at least 4 GB RAM Webcam: Standard laptop camera or USB camera with 640x480 resolution, 15fps Microphone: built-in laptop or webcam microphone Speakers (speakers): optional Network (Internet): Wired broadband Internet access with a data transfer rate (uplink/downlink) of at least 5 Mbps Before starting the exam, student need to check the compatibility of your computer with the proctoring system on the page https://vshb_vshe.proctoring.online/api/check To participate in the exam, the student should: Prepare an ID (passport with name and photo) for identification before starting the examination task; Check the serviceability of the video camera and microphone, the speed of the Internet (for the best result, it is recommended to connect the computer to the network via a cable); Prepare the tools, which are appropriate to complete the examination tasks (pen, sheets of paper, calculator, etc.); Disable other applications in the task manager of the computer, except for the browser in which the StartExam platform will be logged in. During the exam, student is prohibited from: Turning off the video camera, microphone; Using lecture and seminar notes, textbooks, other educational materials; Leaving the place of the examination task (go beyond the viewing angle of the camera); Taking eyes off the computer screen, desktop; Using gadgets (smartphone, tablet, etc.); Involving other people to help with the exam, talk with them during exam; Reading tasks aloud. During the exam, student is allowed to: Use paper, pen for keeping records, calculations; Use a calculator for calculations. Communication Disruptions: A short-term communication failure during the exam is the loss of the student's network connection with the StartExam platform for no more than 5 minutes (for the entire duration of the exam). A short-term communication failure during the exam is considered to be the loss of the student's network connection with the StartExam platform for more than 5 minutes. A long-term communication failure during the exam is the basis for a decision to terminate the exam and give a mark of “unsatisfactory” (0 on a ten-point scale). In case of a long-term loss of connection with the StartExam platform during the exam, student should notify the teacher about this, record the fact of connection loss with the platform (screenshot, evidence from the Internet provider) and apply to the study office with an explanatory note about what happened to make a decision on retaking the exam.
