ARAB OPEN UNIVERSITY
FACULTY OF BUSINESS STUDIES
SYS280 – BUSINESS DYNAMICS: SYSTEMS THINKING AND MODELLING FOR A COMPLEX WORLD
TMA Spring 2022/2023
Please read these instructions carefully and contact your tutor if you require any further clarification. You should submit your completed assignment to your tutor to arrive no later than the cut-off Date (TBC).
Please use standard A4 size paper for submitting the hard copy of your TMA. Your name, personal identifier, course and assignment numbers must appear at the top of each sheet. A soft copy of your TMA must be uploaded to the university Moodle within the indicated cut-off date. The hard & soft copies must be identical. Please leave wide margins and space at the end of each sheet for tutor comments. It is better to use double spacing so that you can easily handwrite corrections to your drafts and tutors have space to include their feedback on the script. Start each question in the assignment on a new page. Any extended text should ideally be word-processed, but diagrams and accompanying notes may be hand drawn and handwritten on an A4 paper.
Completing and sending your assignments
When you have completed your TMA, you must fill in the assignment form (PT3), taking care to fill all information correctly including your personal identifier, course code, section & tutor, and assignment number. Each TMA and its PT3 form should be uploaded on the AOU branch Moodle within the cut-off date. Late submissions require approval from the branch course coordinator and will be subject to grade deductions. All assignments are treated in strict confidence.
If you feel that you are unable to meet the cut-off date of the TMA because of unusual circumstances, please contact your tutor as soon as possible to discuss a possible extension to the cut-off date.
