Assessment 2: scenario based assessment Instructions This is a ‘scenario problem’. Read the information and answer the questions. Your answers must be concise, focus on the question (an introduction isn’t needed), and include a short explanation. ANSWERS OF ESSAY LENGTH ARE NOT REQUIRED. You will need to include some explanation as part of your answers. References should be included both in text (Harvard referencing system) and as a reference list at the end.. Please note that these questions are not equally weighted, and it is likely that answers to some will be a bit longer than others.
