MBL 913M Assignment.

Please did all members recieve the SOW i sent to their email boxes weeks back?--2 minutes

Akachi Ngwu (talk)‎

yes, i will provide demographic details of Minaj, but don't forget this assignment is research driven, most of the applications will be drawn from the administered questionnaire.

Akachi Ngwu (talk)‎

Any comments from members on utang's suggestion? pls bear in mind the limited time available.

Akachi Ngwu (talk)‎

MBL 913M Assignment.

Since there are no further clarifications, i guess the explanations put forward are well understood and members can get down to work

Akachi Ngwu (talk)‎

Timelines? Please specify?

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)‎

I think this was not stated also - very important question!

Victor.mensah (talk)‎

by the SOW forwarded to members,members were to submit their theoretical overviews on March 25, but non was recieved, i will give members untill April 01, 2009 to do that. The due date for the assignment is April 14, 2009. so we have limited time available.

Akachi Ngwu (talk)‎

Can we pls make this 3rd of April cos I think 1st is a bit unrealistic.

Utang (talk)‎

I think i will "selfishly" second this

Victor.mensah (talk)‎

(: I think members may be getting confused as to which thread of discussion to respond to. Lets follow precedence in our discussions. Reply to your own discussion [MBL 913M Assignment. (1)] as all are supposed to do.)

Victor.mensah (talk)‎

Are you going to give us some background info on Minaj to enable us apply the theory just like we did with COMSEC.

Utang (talk)‎

Any last comments on MBL912l? 3 minutes pls

Akachi Ngwu (talk)‎

Thanks Akachi, quick question from me, is everyone able to open all the pdf pages? and what do you think of the layout and clarity of the report layout?

Hermanus Louw (talk)‎

Hermanus, I can open pdf documents - my only points are minor. I notice we still have para which refers to unnames Appendices. Unfortunately i read through a pdf and could not track the changes.Will be in touch with specific page number(s).

JEREMIAH CHAPHXANYA (talk)‎

Please send me an email and explain exactly what you mean, thanks for the comments.

Hermanus Louw (talk)‎

Hi Hermanus I dropped the ball on this one. I'll send through my comments tonight. --Shumimlingo 18:31, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Shumimlingo (talk)‎

sorry, been having internet challenges. just got access today and power is another issue. anyway, straight to my point (and sorry this is coming late). a few minor errors: in 2.2 schedule of year's activities, the appendix has xxx rather than an alphabet or number. page 71 control criteria has %15 rather than 15%. we also are still getting the referencing for websites wrong.

Utang (talk)‎

hermanus lam failing to open the pdf files, the fact that l have not read the articles Akachi l was wondering whether all these articles are relevant to this assignment or for other marketing topics, remember the lecturer gave us two articles which she said will be useful for the assignment.I satnd to be corrected.--Shungunyoni 18:52, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Shungunyoni (talk)‎

no comment from me.

>> just a quick unrelated note: Kindly ensure we have headings for the discussions. Cheers!

Dear Lions,It is 23hours in Singapore, I will not be attending the wikichat due to my business travel. Nevertheless I would like to state that I have read the 912L assignemnt report and I am ok with it and with the cahnges proposed by Jeremiah. I am also very happy to see the Team charter finalised, Hermauns do send it to Kriek. Akachi I am a bit lost with the 913M assignement, I need more guidance from you, it would help me if you could put a few questions for me to elaborate on the topic. Hermanus I am working with you on this one, tomorrow I will finally get to Cambodia my final destination for the whole of next week, I will be checking the emails in a more regular basis.Wish you a great chat and good night--Luisaserra 15:05, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
