Assessment 1: Project context and proposal

This assessment should be completed in 3 steps.

Step 1 - This assignment requires you to submit, a single page project plan. This project plan will contain three components:

A] A 'field of research' which pertains to your understanding of your profession.  This short statement will include how this field relates to the work of your profession and an industry. 

B] A source of secondary data linked to their chosen field of research. Students will be required to either include a website with a link to a publicly available secondary data set, or a short description of how they will use publicly available sources as secondary data.

C] A research question or questions that can be answered with the secondary data set they identified, including a clear expression of the variables you will be using, and the relationships you plan to explore. 

D] The search terms you propose to use in Google Scholar to identify literature in the field of the research question.

E] You will be asked to pick five articles that arise from the result of your search that you will think be suitable sources to write a literature review in the area of your field of research.  You will be asked to write two sentences that combine at least three of these sources (referenced correctly) and provide the (at least three) sources in a reference list.

Step 2 - For this assignment, you will be asked to prepare a short literature review that places their project within the context of their profession and industry, and ends with a focused field of study or research aim, and at least one research question.  You will be asked to clearly describe their research plan, including their proposed method of analysis.  This should be properly referenced, with a minimum of 10 scholarly references in it.  Maximum word count, including references, 1750 words.

Step 3 - Project Report

This Should be a different and separate file:

This is an individual, written assessment, to be completed in report format. You are required to write around 3,000 words (excluding title page, preliminaries, tables, figures, reference list and appendices).

Australian student, you just need to do Step 1 and Step 2. Step 1 page need a single page project plan and Step 2 needs 1750 words. Topic should be related to any international topic related to Accounting. Student need to know the topic, so please confirm it with the selected topic only. The purpose of this assessment is to present the final report of the Professional Project you proposed in Assignment 1. This report should build upon your assessment 1 and it should address the campus tutor/lecturer or unit co-ordinator (for external students) feedback. In order to successfully complete Assessment 2, you are required to carry out the investigation you have proposed in Assessment 1 and produce a professional research report that shows how you have followed through from finding a research question to answering that question and developing recommendations that out of the answer.

Students should ensure that they understand the specific research that is required for each assessment piece and recognise that if they meet this minimum requirement, you will receive the minimum grade for demonstrated research. Your attention is drawn to the University's stated position on plagiarism. In this unit we DO REPORT STUDENTS FOR PLAGIARISM. Students who deliberately try to hide their sources will be identified. THE WORK OF OTHERS, WHICH IS INCLUDED IN THE ASSIGNMENT MUST BE ATTRIBUTED TO ITS SOURCE (a full list of references must be submitted as part of the assessment).

As Masters students you are required to engage in research as per the Australia Quality Framework (AQF) guidelines. Two specific requirements need to be considered. Students need to demonstrate "a body of knowledge that includes the understanding of recent developments in a discipline and/or area of professional practice, and demonstrate "knowledge of research principles and methods applicable to a field of work and/or learning”. Also note that this is an advanced level course, and accrediting bodies are also looking for evidence of independent research, so the ability to conduct this project without continually relying on your tutors and lecturers is an important part of the learning process for this unit. We encourage you to come up with your own ideas and work independently, BUT that doesn't mean just ignoring the parameters in this course.
