Classroom Based Assessment 2
CBA 2 is usually conducted in Third Year. In this CBA you will be given the opportunity to apply you knowledge, skills and understanding to different real-life settings, and to develop their communication skills. You will apply course learning to their daily lives and the world of work, integrate theoretical ideas to practical contexts and begin to develop reflective skills. This builds on the positive dialogue between students and teachers on business-related interests throughout the three years of study. Students will be required to investigate and present on a business related topic. The chosen topic may be directly related to specific course content or students may decide to study an issue of personal or local relevance, provided it is related to the business environment.
This Classroom-Based Assessment has two priorities:
to offer students the opportunity to apply their knowledge, skills and understanding to different real-life settings, and
to develop their communication skills.
