You
are required to prepare a research proposal outline and associated literature
review that will inform the design and structure of the research project which
is the final assignment (Assessment 3).
You

you, and consider and describe the problem needing investigation and the
related research objectives (also referred to as the Sub-problems of your
Problem Statement), following the instructions below.
A
review of current literature is then required to help describe and
contextualise the industry-related research situation and justify the research
design and data collection methods you will use in the associated research
project (Assessment 3). You can discuss your research situation with your
lecturer, but the following example has been provided to help you start
thinking about the relationship between an industry problem and the research
that may be required to address this problem.
Example
– You have recently been employed as a marketing manager for a tourist
attraction located in Australia. Your marketing director has given you a number
of research projects that need to be undertaken to inform the development of
marketing plans and strategies. Your first task in your new role is to prepare
a research proposal that outlines how you would undertake the following
research project:To determine what type of experiences visitors generally like
to experience when they visit the attraction.

The support team was available upon request. For the past two semesters I have been stressing on receiving my assignments on expected achievement dates. I value your service and hope that you all would improve your teamwork. I have been using this service now for 2-years and was totally satisfied. With this being said, I have spent at least a thousand plus dollars with this company. Knowing there are other competing companies that are on the market for a lot less than you guys are charging. "I trust that you all would get it together and avoid last minute communication which increases stress to the student."
