The Capstone Consultancy Project – Assessment Information

Marking

The Capstone (Group Consultancy) Projects will be each marked independently by two academic members of staff. The views / feedback from the Client following the presentation (in terms of how well the report / presentation had met the client brief) will be taken into account when deciding on the final mark.

The allocation of marks between the team members is decided after full and careful consideration of; the students individual peer evaluation forms (“CONSULTANCY FIRM EVALUATION FORM”); reflective learning statements; documentation relating to minutes of meetings etc., and the academic judgement of the tutors who saw the firm (team) at the weekly timetabled sessions. Academic judgement is then used in reaching the final agreed mark for each student for the Group Consultancy part of the module.

Please note all students must complete “CONSULTANCY FIRM EVALUATION FORM” this is used in order to evaluate each individual’s contribution when marking the consultancy reports. Students are to hand in alongside their individual assessment (Part B).
