All modules delivered by Anglia Ruskin University at its main campuses in the UK and at Associate
Colleges throughout the UK and overseas are governed by the Academic Regulations. You can view
these at www.anglia.ac.uk/academicregs. A printed extract of the Academic Regulations, known as the
Assessment Regulations, is available for every student from LS London office.
In the unlikely event of any discrepancy between the Academic Regulations and any other publication,
including this module guide, the Academic Regulations, as the definitive document, take precedence
over all other publications and will be applied in all cases.

2. Introduction to the Module


This module is designed to provide students with an understanding of marketing from an international
perspective. The increased access to new markets across the world means that both opportunities and
threats face marketers in the global context. Overcoming cultural issues remains a key challenge, along
with the ability to communicate effectively to perhaps a very different target audience. Given the huge
number of multi-national firms now operating in China e.g. Siemens, Ikea, McDonalds' and BP, many
employers now expect international marketers to have knowledge of more than one cultural group. The
lectures will therefore enable students to analyse marketing issues in an international context by
providing a range of theoretical frameworks and practical examples. The seminars will largely focus on
case examples, allowing students to apply relevant theories. One of the main focuses for the design of
this module has been the further development of relevant employability and professional skills. A new
assessment has been incorporated into this 2014/15 module guide (Presentation 30%).

3. Intended Learning Outcomes

Anglia Ruskin modules are taught on the basis of intended learning outcomes and that, on successful

4.1 Attendance Requirements


Attending all your webinars/online activities is very important and one of the best ways to help you succeed
in this module. Research has found a clear correlation between student attendance and overall
performance. In accordance with the Student Charter, you are expected to actively take part in the online
webinars and other online activities. For further details contact Joanna Shear at
arusupport@lseducationgroup.com
London School of Marketing will closely monitor the attendance of all students. Continued absence can
result in various consequences including the termination of your registration as you will be considered to
have withdrawn from your studies.
International students who are non-EEA nationals and in possession of entry clearance/leave to remain as
a student (student visa) are required to be in regular attendance at London School of Marketing. Failure to
do so is considered to be a breach of national immigration regulations. London School of Marketing, like
all British Universities, is statutorily obliged to inform the UK Border Agency of the Home Office of
significant unauthorised absences by any student visa holders.

Student ID number (SID) as the submission title (details below).
You will be enrolled automatically to a Turnitin class: The Originality Report Class to which you
can submit multiple drafts for originality checking. You should follow the detailed instructions
provided on the IMSS.
When you submit your paper, remember to:
a) Keep Default

b) Enter your first

Module Guide

Plagiarism Requirement:
Prior to dispatching the dissertation to the External Examiner, the Research Proposal must be
submitted to the electronic plagiarism checking software (i.e. Turnitin);
Turnitin.com uses the Originality Check tool to compile the Originality Report, which
contains detailed information about the number and the use of each primary source in the
submitted document. This is done through the Similarity Index, which is a percentage of
words in the paper that match all the primary sources to all words in the document.
The Similarity Index also shows a copy of the student paper with primary sources. Each
primary source is given a colour and number. The text within the students paper, which
corresponds to a primary source, will be highlighted in that respective colour and attached
with its respective number. The percentage of each primary source refers to a percentage
of words in the entire paper that match the source.
HOW TO VIEW YOUR FEEDBACK
Click on the class that you wish to view and then you will see the assignments for the
module listed. Click the blue view button to open up the document viewer. A new window will
open and you will see your feedback on the right-hand side of the screen.

Click on the View button

POINTS TO NOTE
1. All work submitted MUST be entitled by your Student ID number.
2. The Originality Report is automatically generated by Turnitin on submitting work. A
paper copy of the originality report is not required.
3. The Originality Report will not be used to make assessment decisions unless
concerns arise as to poor academic practice, plagiarism, or collusion. The report
may then be considered as part of the normal investigatory procedures undertaken
by the academic team and the Director of Studies (again, please see Section 10
of the Assessment Regulations).
4. Re-sits and extensions are also to be submitted via Turnitin. New Turnitin classes will
be created for re-sits.

Page 10

Module Guide

5. Full details as on submitting to Turnitin, the Originality Report, and a FAQs list, can
be located on the module VLE.
All coursework assignments and other forms of assessment must be submitted by the
published deadline. It is your responsibility to know when work is due to be submitted
ignorance of the deadline date will not be accepted as a reason for late or nonsubmission.

5.2 Submitting your work


All student work which contributes to the eventual outcome of the module (i.e.: if it
determines whether you will pass or fail the module and counts towards the mark you
achieve for the module) is submitted according to your institutions guidelines. Academic
staff CANNOT accept work directly from you.
Any late work will NOT be accepted and a mark of zero will be awarded for the assessment
task in question.
You are requested to keep a copy of your work.
5.3 Marking Rubric and Feedback
The rubric, shown in Section 7.1 Specific Marking Criteria, will be used to mark your work.
Feedback
You are entitled to written feedback on your performance for all your assessed work. For all assessment
tasks which are not examinations, this is provided through the completion of the assignment coversheet
on which your mark and feedback will relate to the achievement of the modules intended learning
outcomes and the assessment criteria you were given for the task when it was first issued.
Examination scripts are retained by London School of Marketing and are not returned to students.
However, you are entitled to feedback on your performance in an examination and may request a
meeting with the Module Leader or Tutor to see your examination script and to discuss your
performance.
London School of Marketing is committed to providing you with feedback on all assessed work within 20
working days of the submission deadline or the date of an examination. This is extended to 30 days for
feedback for a Major Project module (please note that working days excludes those days when LS is
officially closed; e.g. between Christmas and New Year). Personal tutors will offer to read feedback from
several modules and help you to address any common themes that may be emerging.
On occasion, you will receive feedback and marks for work that you completed in the earlier stages of
the module. We provide you with this feedback as part of the learning experience and to help you
prepare for other assessment tasks that you have still to complete. It is important to note that, in these
cases, the marks for these pieces of work are unconfirmed. This means that, potentially, marks can
change, in either direction!

Page 11

Module Guide

5.4 Re-Assessment (re-sit)


If you are unsuccessful with the 1st attempt of your assessment, you must complete a re-assessment.
As indicated in Section 6.2.7. of the Senate Code of Practice, this is a NEW assessment, you CANNOT
re-work the assessment explained in this section. The re-assessment information is given in Appendix
1.

6. How is My Work Marked?


After you have submitted your work or you have completed an examination, Anglia Ruskin undertakes a
series of activities to assure that our marking processes are comparable with those employed at other
universities in the UK and that your work has been marked fairly, honestly and consistently. These
include:
Anonymous marking your name is not attached to your work so, at the point of marking, the
lecturer does not know whose work he/she is considering. When you undertake an assessment task
where your identity is known (e.g. a presentation or Major Project), it is marked by more than one
lecturer (known as double marking)

Internal moderation a sample of all work for each assessment task in each module is moderated
by other Anglia Ruskin staff to check the standards and consistency of the marking

External moderation a sample of student work for all modules is moderated by external
examiners experienced academic staff from other universities (and sometimes practitioners who
represent relevant professions) - who scrutinise your work and provide Anglia Ruskin academic staff
with feedback, advice and assurance that the marking of your work is comparable to that in other UK
universities. Many of Anglia Ruskins staff act as external examiners at other universities.

Departmental Assessment Panel (DAP) performance by all students on all modules is discussed
and approved at the appropriate DAPs which are attended by all relevant Module Leaders and
external examiners. Anglia Ruskin has over 25 DAPs to cover all the different subjects we teach.
This module falls within the remit of the Marketing Strategy and Enterprise DAP.
The following external examiners are appointed to this DAP and will oversee the assessment of this
and other modules within the DAPs remit:

MARKETING, ENTERPRISE AND STRATEGY


External Examiners Name
Dr Lindsey Carey

Academic Institution

Position or Employer

Glasgow Caledonian University

Lecturer

The above list is correct at the time of publication. However, external examiners are appointed at
various points throughout the year. An up-to-date list of external examiners is available to students and
staff at www.anglia.ac.uk/eeinfo.

The internal (and external) moderation process compares work from all locations where the module is delivered
(e.g.Cambridge, Chelmsford, Peterborough, Malaysia, India, Trinidad etc.)
The sample for the internal moderation process comprises a minimum of eight pieces of work or 10% (whichever
is the greater) for each marker and covers the full range of marks
Only modules at levels 5, 6 and 7 are subject to external moderation (unless required for separate reasons). The
sample for the external moderation process comprises a minimum of eight pieces of work or 10% (whichever is
the greater) for the entire module and covers the full range of marks

7.2 University Generic Assessment Criteria


ANGLIA RUSKIN UNIVERSITY GENERIC ASSESSMENT CRITERIA AND MARKING STANDARDS
LEVEL 6
Level 6 is characterised by an expectation of students increasing autonomy in relation to their study and developing skill sets.
Students are expected to demonstrate problem solving skills, both theoretical and practical. This is supported by an understanding
of appropriate theory; creativity of expression and thought based in individual judgement; and the ability to seek out, invoke, analyse
and evaluate competing theories or methods of working in a critically constructive and open manner. Output is articulate, coherent
and skilled in the appropriate medium, with some students producing original or innovative work in their specialism.

Module Guide

8. Assessment Offences
As an academic community, we recognise that the principles of truth, honesty and mutual respect are
central to the pursuit of knowledge. Behaviour that undermines those principles weakens the community,
both individually and collectively, and diminishes our values. We are committed to ensuring that every
student and member of staff is made aware of the responsibilities s/he bears in maintaining the highest
standards of academic integrity and how those standards are protected.
You are reminded that any work that you submit must be your own. When you are preparing your work
for submission, it is important that you understand the various academic conventions that you are
expected to follow in order to make sure that you do not leave yourself open to accusations of plagiarism
(e.g. the correct use of referencing, citations, footnotes etc.) and that your work maintains its academic
integrity.

Definitions of Assessment Offences


Plagiarism
Plagiarism is theft and occurs when you present someone elses work, words, images, ideas, opinions or
discoveries, whether published or not, as your own. It is also when you take the artwork, images or
computer-generated work of others, without properly acknowledging where this is from or you do this
without their permission.
You can commit plagiarism in examinations, but it is most likely to happen in coursework, assignments,
portfolios, essays, dissertations and so on.
Examples of plagiarism include:

directly copying from written work, physical work, performances, recorded work or images, without
saying where this is from;
using information from the internet or electronic media (such as DVDs and CDs) which belongs to
someone else, and presenting it as your own;
rewording someone elses work, without referencing them; and
handing in something for assessment which has been produced by another student or person.

It is important that you do not plagiarise intentionally or unintentionally because the work of others
and their ideas are their own. There are benefits to producing original ideas in terms of awards, prizes,
qualifications, reputation and so on. To use someone elses work, words, images, ideas or discoveries is
a form of theft.
Collusion
Collusion is similar to plagiarism as it is an attempt to present anothers work as your own. In plagiarism
the original owner of the work is not aware you are using it, in collusion two or more people may be
involved in trying to produce one piece of work to benefit one individual, or plagiarising another persons
work.
Examples of collusion include:

agreeing with others to cheat;


getting someone else to produce part or all of your work;
copying the work of another person (with their permission);
submitting work from essay banks;
paying someone to produce work for you; and
Page 20

Module Guide

allowing another student to copy your own work.

Many parts of university life need students to work together. Working as a team, as directed by your
tutor, and producing group work is not collusion. Collusion only happens if you produce joint work to
benefit of one or more person and try to deceive another (for example the assessor).
Cheating
Cheating is when someone aims to get unfair advantage over others.
Examples of cheating include:

taking unauthorised material into the examination room;


inventing results (including experiments, research, interviews and observations);
handing your own previously graded work back in;
getting an examination paper before it is released;
behaving in a way that means other students perform poorly;
pretending to be another student; and
trying to bribe members of staff or examiners.

Help to Avoid Assessment Offences


Most of our students are honest and want to avoid committing assessment offences. We have a variety
of resources, advice and guidance available to help make sure you can develop good academic skills.
We will make sure that we make available consistent statements about what we expect. You will be able
to do tutorials on being honest in your work from the library and other support services and faculties, and
you will be able to test your written work for plagiarism using TurnitinUK (a software package that
detects plagiarism).
You can get advice on how to use honestly the work of others in your own work from the library website
(www.libweb.anglia.ac.uk/referencing/referencing.htm) and your lecturer and personal tutor.
You will be able to use TurnitinUK, a special software package which is used to detect plagiarism.
TurnitinUK will produce a report which clearly shows if passages in your work have been taken from
somewhere else. You may talk about this with your personal tutor to see where you may need to
improve your academic practice. We will not see these formative TurnitinUK reports as assessment
offences. All students in Cambridge and Chelmsford are also expected to submit their final work through
TurnitinUK as outlined above.
If you are not sure whether the way you are working meets our requirements, you should talk to your
personal tutor, module tutor or other member of academic staff. They will be able to help you and tell
you about other resources which will help you develop your academic skills.

Procedures for assessment offences


An assessment offence is the general term used to define cases where a student has tried to get unfair
academic advantage in an assessment for himself or herself or another student.
We will fully investigate all cases of suspected assessment offences. If we prove that you have
committed an assessment offence, an appropriate penalty will be imposed which, for the most serious
offences, includes expulsion from Anglia Ruskin. For full details of our assessment offences policy and
procedures, see Section 10 of the Academic Regulations at: www.anglia.ac.uk/academicregs.

LEARNING, TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT INFORMATION


6a. Module Description
This module is designed to provide students with an understanding of marketing from an
international perspective. The increased access to new markets across the world means that
both opportunities and threats face marketers in the global context. Overcoming cultural issues
remains a key challenge, along with the ability to communicate effectively to perhaps a very
different target audience. Although the module examines a range of case examples and
international markets, special attention is given to the Chinese market. Rapid economic growth,
hosting of the 2008 Olympic games, government support and WTO accession means China is
an attractive market to many potential investors. However, it still remains a largely unknown
market. Given the huge number of multi-national firms now operating in China e.g. Siemens,
Ikea, McDonalds' and BP, many employers now expect international marketers to have
knowledge outside Europe. The lectures will therefore enable students to analyse marketing
issues in an international context by providing a range of theoretical frameworks and practical
examples. The seminars will largely focus on case examples, allowing students to apply relevant
theories.
One of the main focuses for the design of this module has been the further development of
relevant employability and professional skills. Such skills are implicit in the learning outcomes.
Multiculturalism has been considered during the design of this module and will be considered
when the assessment brief is written.
