Instructions:
You are expected, in this online examination, to evaluate, critically analyse and
apply the information in your study material. You therefore need to deliver well-
structured and well-presented arguments and solutions. Be wary of making
statements without substantiating and motivating them. It is essential to provide
practical examples of the application of theory in the public sector. Please note that
, you are not allowed to copy content from sources verbatim as this would constitute
plagiarism, which is a disciplinary offense. You therefore have to re-write the content
in your own words. You may use extra information sources. Note that Wikipedia,
Facebook and YouTube are not academic sources but may provide valuable
additional information about the real-live context of public administration.
You must not communicate with fellow students during the examination. No
group work will be accepted, and cases of misconduct will be referred to the relevant
Academic Integrity Sub-committee for investigation. Your marks will be affected
negatively should plagiarism be detected, or should you use non-academic
sources.
Your submitted examination answer will be marked by assessing the clarity of thought,
use of content to support arguments and ability to clearly explain how practical
examples relate to the examination question.
NOTE: At least 30% of the marks are allocated to the application of the theory.
Please make sure that your grammar, expression and general use of the English
language are correct. Remember that poor grammar and presentation may
negatively affect the way your work is perceived by the assessor.
Please submit your examination answer on the myExams platform.
