CASE REPORT GRADING FRAMEWORK

Assignment 2: Case Study
Assignment 2: Case Report Grading Framework
Important Note about Assignment Two (Report):
? BBS students must pass the ‘communication section’ of Assignment Two in order to comply with BBS Regulation 4. This regulation states that students who do not achieve a minimum of 50% out

of 100% for the ‘communication section’ will need to enrol and complete an approved communication paper in their degree to be eligible to graduate. The communication section is noted below by the phrase

COMM.
? A calculator will be provided in the Assessment Guide to help you in calculating the mark you have received for the ‘communication section’. The entire ‘communication section’ is worth 60% of the

assignment marks, so 30% or higher in the calculation denotes a ‘pass’.
