CLAW6031 Individual Research Exercise Semester 1 of 2020
ADMINISTRATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
This exercise is an INDIVIDUAL research exercise; students should NOT collaborate with
other students in researching and writing the paper.
This research exercise will consist of TWO (2) research questions. You must answer ALL
TWO QUESTIONS. The research exercise is worth 30%, with each question worth 15%,
Your answers must not exceed 600 words for each question, that is 1,200 words in TOTAL.
The word length does not include references. Your answer should be in the form of a concise
analysis of the research question. If you write more than the designated length of 1,200 words,
the additional words will not be evaluated; that is, you will not get any extra marks. Students
should be selective in the material that they use and ensure that it is both SIGNIFICANT and
RELEVANT to answering the question.
You must be careful to not copy from any source, including textbook, without giving full
acknowledgement of the source. You should give proper referencing, i.e. use the Business
School’s referencing system.
Since this is a research exercise, you should provide more than one academic reference,
including the reference/source found below. The textbook is not considered an academic
reference.
The research essay must be submitted through Turnitin by 10.00 am on 18th May (SYDNEY
TIME). Penalties apply for late answers.
