  4. Type of Question • Based on Tektronix Case Study (provided) • Available electronically via voyager • http://images.lib.monash.edu.au/ims5043/04108878-1.pdf • http://images.lib.monash.edu.au/ims5043/04108878-2.pdf • New, Clean copy will be provided in the exam room • Followed by 8 short-ish questions • Roughly half Judy/Joze’s material, half on Andrew’s • NOT ALL OF EQUAL MARKS (see next slide) • Please be succinct • Bullet points (fulsome ones!) are OK • NO CHOICE • Please attempt all questions!

  6. Type of Response • Marks will be deducted if your response is a direct copy of the lecture notes! Please think about the case, and tailor your response • Think, before you do anything! • More than 1 “correct” answer may be possible – you will be rewarded for sensible responses that show an understanding of the material covered in this course and its application to this case • You don’t need to write a book!

  7. Time Management • PLEASE manage your time effectively • Use marks allocated to guide you as to how much time is available • Avoid thinking you must write down EVERYTHING you know about a particular topic • You almost inevitably will leave yourself short of time for other questions • Plan your answers to “maximise return on investment” • What’s the question asking you? • Just do that, not write everything you know!

  8. Preparation • Understand the concepts covered in class & small group discussions • Knowledge of specific cases covered in tutorials is NOT required, but knowledge and understanding of concepts covered is examinable. • Read as widely as you can • Be equipped to examine a “problem” from a number of different perspectives • Avoid sounding trivial and/or silly! • Avoid silly statements like “Everyone knows that IT benefits the business…” • These sorts of statements make me believe that you do not understand the issues!

  9. Remember • You MUST pass the exam (>50%) in order to pass this unit overall

  10. Sorry, but… • The lecturers and tutors are NOT answering emails asking about exam details • and we are NOT answering emails asking how you should study
