Email Etiquette: Consultation with your subject coordinator and/or teachers via email
Your teachers receive many emails each day. In order to enable them to respond to your emails appropriately and in a timely fashion, students are asked to observe basic requirements of professional communication:
Consider what the communication is about
• Is your question addressed elsewhere (e.g. in this subject outline or, where applicable, on the subject’s eLearning site)?
• Is it something that is better discussed in person or by telephone? This may be the case if your query requires a lengthy response or a dialogue in order to address. If so, see consultation times above and/or schedule an appointment.
• Are you addressing your request to the most appropriate person?
Specific email title/header to enable easy identification of subject related/student emails
• Identify the subject code of the subject you are enquiring about (as your teacher may be involved in more than one subject) in the email header. Add a brief, specific header after the subject code where appropriate.
Professional courtesy
• Address your teacher appropriately by name (and formal title if you do not yet know them).
• Use full words (avoid ‘text-speak’ abbreviations), correct grammar and correct spelling.
• Be respectful and courteous.
• Academics will normally respond within 1-2 business days. If the matter is urgent, you may wish to telephone the teaching staff whose contact details are given in this subject outline or contact the School.
• Please ensure that you include your full name and identify your seminar or tutorial group in your email so that your teachers know who they are communicating with and can follow-up personally where appropriate.
A guide to eLearning ‘Netiquette’ is available at https://www.uow.edu.au/student/elearning/netiquette/index.html. The basic principles of Netiquette also apply to email communication.

SUBJECT DESCRIPTION
The subject examines the concepts underpinning the marketing process and theories relevant to the study and practice of modern marketing science. Key concepts covered include the creation and delivery of customer value, customer retention and return on marketing investment, marketing’s role in an organisation as defined by the overall strategic plan, and its integration with other functional disciplines within the organisation, elements of marketing plan, competitor analysis and strategies, marketing environment, marketing research, consumer and business buying behaviour, strategic nature of segmenting markets, targeting, and positioning brands, marketing mix decisions, and marketing ethics and social responsibility. The subject provides a foundation for the development of effective market-oriented managerial thinking, communication and team-work skills.
STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES
On successful completion of this subject, students will be able to:
1. Explain the major conceptual and theoretical principles upon which the practice of marketing in organisations is based.
2. Synthesise underlying marketing principles and concepts for making socially responsible business decisions.
3. Apply logical, critical and creative thinking and judgement to generate appropriate solutions to problems for relevant audiences in a business environment.
4. Demonstrate professional written communication skills when interpreting relevant text, verbal, numerical and visual styles.
5. Demonstrate an ability to work both independently and cooperatively to synthesise and communicate marketing information.
UPDATES TO THIS SUBJECT
The School is committed to continual improvement in teaching and learning. In assessing teaching and learning practices in a subject, the School takes into consideration student feedback from many sources. These sources include direct student feedback to tutors and lecturers, feedback through Student Services and Business Central, responses to the Subject and Course Evaluation Surveys. These important student responses are used to make ongoing changes to subjects and courses. This information is also used to inform systemic comprehensive reviews of subjects and courses.
While every effort is made to keep the subject database current, students may find that occasionally, the assessment information in the subject outline differs from the information on the subject database. In such instances, the Subject Coordinator will make appropriate announcements in the first class of the session.
For 2017, this subject has undergone a significant revision in content, learning activities, and assessment tasks in response to student and instructor feedback. The pool of Weekly Questions has been reduced in number. The first assessment task has been amended to incorporate both individual and collaborative learning. New cases have been chosen for the second assessment task. A case study analysis has been added to the third assessment task, the Final Examination, replacing the previous journal article and scenario-based questions in Part B. Continuous feedback and/or constructive suggestions are welcomed throughout the subject.
COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES
Course Learning Outcomes can be found in the Course Handbook https://www.uow.edu.au/handbook/yr2016/index.html.

LATE SUBMISSION OF ASSESSMENT TASKS
Assessed work submitted late will be penalised by the deduction of 10 percent of the maximum possible mark for that assessment per working day or part thereof. The operation of this rule will not result in a negative mark being carried forward.
This penalty for late submission may be waived upon presentation of a medical certificate of illness for a relevant period, or upon evidence of untoward or approved circumstances that fall under the Student Academic Consideration Policy (see Sydney Business School Student Handbook).
SUPPLEMENTARY EXAMINATIONS
Students who suffer illness or other circumstances beyond their control which are likely to affect their academic performance on the day of an examination should not attempt the exam. These students should obtain a Medical Certificate or other approved supporting documentation and follow the University’s Academic Consideration application process to apply for a supplementary exam. The School will not approve students to re-sit an examination. See Section C, Student Academic Consideration Policy for further details.
Students approved for a supplementary examination will receive a minimum of five (5) days’ notice via SOLSMail, regarding the examination date, time and location. Supplementary exam period dates can be found at https://www.uow.edu.au/student/exams/timetabledates/index.html.
MINIMUM PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
To be eligible to pass this subject, students must complete all assessment tasks for this subject. In addition, you must achieve a total mark of 50% or over and obtain a minimum of 50% in the final examination or major piece of assessment (where there is no final exam). Students who do not meet these minimum performance level requirements will be given a Fail grade (F) on their academic transcript, in accordance with the general course rules.
Where a student gains a mark of 50 or greater and does not meet the specified level in an assessment task required to pass the subject a Technical Fail (TF) grade will be given. Where a Technical Fail is given the following applies:
a. Failure of the subject;
b. a TF without a mark will be granted;
c. a TF will be presented on the student’s academic transcript;
d. The allocated mark of 49 will be used as the WAM calculation for subjects at all levels.
Students who fail a subject will not normally be eligible for a supplementary exam but may be approved if extenuating circumstances exist. Approval for a supplementary exam in these circumstances needs to be given by the relevant Head of School and Faculty Assessment Committee. Students who believe they may be eligible, and who have not already been advised accordingly, should consult their Lecturer or Subject Coordinator.
ASSESSMENT QUALITY CYCLE
The University of Wollongong is committed to the quality assurance and quality enhancement of assessment. The University will meet its legislative and regulatory obligations, to ensure consistent and appropriate assessment through course management and coordination, including assessment quality assurance procedures. An Assessment Quality Cycle is used to describe quality assurance at the points of assessment design, assessment delivery, the declaration of marks and grades, and review and improvement activities.
DATA RETENTION AND USE
The Faculty of Business will retain appropriate records in line with the State Records Act 1998 (NSW), other relevant legislation, standards and University of Wollongong policies.
Data on student performance and engagement (such as Moodle and University Library usage, task marks, use of SOLS) will be available to the Subject Coordinator to assist in analysing student engagement, and to identify and recommend support to students who may be at risk of failure. If you have questions about the kinds of data the University uses, how we collect it, and how we protect your privacy in the use of this data, please refer to https://www.uow.edu.au/dvca/bala/analytics/index.html
Please note: Copies of student work may be retained by the University in order to facilitate quality assurance of assessment processes.
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY AND PLAGIARISM
The University’s Academic Integrity and Plagiarism Policy, faculty handbooks and subject guides clearly set out the University’s expectation that students submit only their own original work for assessment and avoid plagiarising the work of others or cheating. Re-using any of your own work (either in part or in full) which you have submitted previously for assessment is not permitted without appropriate acknowledgement. Plagiarism can be detected and has led to students being expelled from the University.
The use by students of any website that provides access to essays or other assessment items (sometimes marketed as ‘resources’), is extremely unwise. Students who provide an assessment item (or provide access to an assessment item) to others, either directly or indirectly (for example by uploading an assessment item to a website) are considered by the university to be intentionally or recklessly helping other students to cheat. Uploading an assessment task, subject outline or other course materials without express permission of the University is considered academic misconduct and students place themselves at risk of being expelled from the University.
Students should visit the following University website and become familiar with the University’s policy on plagiarism https://www.uow.edu.au/about/policy/UOW058648.html.
Plagiarism Prevention
The School has an e-learning module which aims to orientate you with the knowledge and resources to:
• avoid problems related to plagiarism
• develop your capacity to integrate evidence into your arguments • reference correctly.
The online module is openly available for use by students at any stage in their degree. You are strongly encouraged to use the module to help in assessing the academic integrity of your written work. The module can be accessed via https://moodle.uowplatform.edu.au/course/view.php?id=5679.
TURNITIN
Turnitin is a service used by UOW as a tool educating students about the importance of correct citations and referencing techniques in addition to identifying where students have copied or reused the work of others – known as plagiarism. For tips about writing with academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism please see above: Academic Integrity and Plagiarism and https://www.uow.edu.au/student/services/ld/students/UOW021315.html
The Turnitin system checks each student’s written assessment against electronic text;
• on the publicly accessible Internet,
• in published works (including ABI/Inform, Periodical Abstracts, Business dateline, and electronic books),
• on the ProQuest and Gale commercial databases, and
• in every assignment previously submitted to Turnitin
When a student submits his/her written assessment, the system generates an ‘originality report’ that highlights the similarity found between the assessment and all the sources checked by Turnitin. Turnitin does not check that references are in the correct Harvard format. It is the student’s responsibility to check that all references follow the Harvard format detailed on https://www.library.uow.edu.au/referencing/.
It is compulsory for all students to submit all written assignments (final version) in a word (.doc/.docx) format into the Turnitin system regardless of whether it is electronic or paper based. Your lecturer will advise whether a hard copy of the report is required with any paper based assignment submission.
Students are encouraged to submit drafts of their assignment to Turnitin before the due date, thus enabling students to check their referencing and rectify any issues before submission of the final version.
1. Use one document name only for each assignment that includes your UOW student number
2. Any resubmissions must use the same document name as the original submission
3. References must be included in your Turnitin submission
4. Do not include the assignment topic question at the beginning of your submission
5. Where a paper based copy is required with the assignment submission, the originality report provided with the assignment submission must be consistent with your last submission to Turnitin
Failure to comply with these requirements may result in penalties being applied.
ACADEMIC COMPLAINTS
In accordance with the Coursework Student Academic Complaints Policy, a student may request an explanation of a mark for an assessment task or a final grade for a subject consistent with the student’s right to appropriate and useful feedback on their performance in an assessment task. Refer to the Coursework Student Academic Complaints Policy for further information – http://www.uow.edu.au/about/policy/UOW058653.html
SECTION C: GENERAL ADVICE TO STUDENTS
For general information on university policies and procedures relevant to students, and for details about the range of student services available, please see General Advice for Students which can be accessed online at https://business.uow.edu.au/UOW144987.html.
