Stakeholders - Task Description Four Assessment Answer

 Task Description Four media articles will be provided on the Moodle site in week 1. For this assessment, each student will choose any TWO of the four articles provided and write a reflective analysis. This is an individual assessment with a maximum word limit of 600 words for each article analysis (1,200 words in total for both articles). In analysing the two chosen articles, the emphasis is on identifying the marketing implications of the events or issues described in the selected articles. For each of the two selected articles, students are to prepare a write-up (in .doc or .docx format) answering the following question: What are the implications of the events/incidents/issues in the articles from a marketing perspective and how will these impact (positively or negatively) relevant stakeholders? The write-up for each article should be presented in the following format: 1. Concise summary of the key issues illustrated in the article. 2. Explanation of why the issues illustrated in the articles are important. 3. Discussion of implications of these issues from a marketing perspective. Provide a list of at least 4 citations and references for your reflective analysis of each article (that is 8 relevant references in total for both articles). The references should consist of published academic and research papers and textbooks in the write-up to support key points. Ensure that your references are relevant to the issues discussed. You should also reference the chosen articles in the main submission document with the correct URL in the reference list section (this is additional to your academic references). Referencing should follow the APA style. The analysis and write-up of your two chosen articles is due in week 6. Each article analysis submission is worth 10% equating to a total of 20% of the semester’s mark for the unit. Tutorial class activities in weeks 2 and 3 are designed to assist students in preparing for their week 6 submission. Students must be prepared to discuss their analysis of the selected two articles during tutorial classes in weeks 4 and 5 respectively. Distance students will discuss their analysis of the articles in the allocated Moodle discussion forum in weeks 4 and 5, respectively. Any assessment with a ‘Turnitin’ score of more than 20% will be checked by the marker and unit coordinator for potential plagiarism issues although it may not necessarily mean that you have plagiarised. If there is a substantial similarity score in the ‘Turnitin’ report, your assessment will be investigated for plagiarism and could be forwarded to an appropriate office/authority.
