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 Subcommittee
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.
