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
wellpresented 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.
