Each student will be required to prepare a reflective essay of 2000 words (excluding
appendices). To start the process, at the end of each lecture each student will record/note
down three key points he/she has learned. The key points should be expressed/written in
your own words. So, by the end of week 10, each student should have 30 key points which
can then be used as the basis for developing a reflective essay. The 30 key points should be
included in the submitted essay as an appendix. The essay should reflect the key insights
on international cooperative strategy (e.g. how to choose partners and manage alliances)
that the student has gained from the module as a whole and illustrate these with reference to at least three case studies.
