Dear Student
1 INTRODUCTION
Due to the ministerial request to extend the 2021 registration dates, Unisa had to amend both the
semester dates and the assessment arrangements for the 2021 academic year.
During 2021 we will have only one semester and only one tuition and assessment period. The
purpose of this TL001 is to inform you of the new assessment requirements for HRM3706 for
students registered during 2021 for the one semester period.
2 ASSIGNMENT DUE DATES
2.1 Assignments (formative assessment)
2.1.1 Assessment plan
Unisa, unlike residential universities, does not require students to write tests to gain admission to
the examination. Assignments are used for this purpose. The assignments serve as an important
criterion to determine whether you have studied the content of the study guide and the prescribed
book in a systematic fashion and are able to achieve certain prescribed objectives. At the same
time, you become conversant with the standards applied at the University, broaden your
knowledge of your subject and gain valuable practice in answering questions.
Three assignments are set for this module. Assignments 01 and 02 are compulsory. They must
be submitted to the University for assessment and will contribute towards your final mark for this
module. Assignment 03 is a self-assessment assignment and should not be submitted to
the University for assessment (self assessment included this tutorial letter). You may
complete this assignment after you have studied the relevant sections of the work. Try to answer
the assignment questions without consulting the study guide and prescribed book. After you have
completed the assignment, assess your answers by using the guidelines provided in this
tutorial letter (Comments on self-assessment assignment). Assignment 01 consists of
multiple-choice questions, while Assignments 02 and 03 contain essay questions and case
studies.
