In the first assignment, students will need to focus on a general strategic planning, such as situational analysis (competitor, consumer insight – TOWS analysis), brand architecture decision, brand identity decision, brand positioning, and brand essence.
Final exam assignment:
Total weighing of 50%, divided into several assessment components.
The focus of the final exam assignment is to extend the mid exam assignment. Students are required to decide the brand touch-point and brand activation applications (brand communication) for clients.

Additional Remarks
Plagiarism and Deceitful Actions

Assignment consultation
We are fully aware that the assignment loads for students are quite heavy, plus other subject assignments. However, those do not prevent the students from being underperformed. The Assignment consultations are available since week four (by appointment). Please drop by to our office or to the other agreed places for consultations if they are deemed to be useful to improve the quality of the assignments as expected.

Complaints and Critiques on the Teaching Methods a.
For the members of the groups:
This subject has a high level of group dynamics. Given the fact that this is a group based assessment subject, students are allowed to log the peer evaluation form should they feel that there are imbalanced workloads within the individual group. If it is deemed necessary, students may ask for internal peer review (there is a form to be filled out by each member of the team, to assess themselves and their friends) that to be submitted a maximum of three days after the assignment submission date/
assignment presentation. b.
For the subject lecturers:
Lecturers are open to critiques and suggestions as long as they are addressed politely. Please log your complaints and suggestions directly after the class or through email. We will try our best to solve the problems or we will try to respond the concerns promptly. Do not hesitate to discuss with us.
