Group Storyboard, Quiz and Individual Report Synthesis

customer story · concept evidence trail · recommendation and limitation · convert the module sequence into a coherent storyboard and an individually defensible report

It is positioned as a marketing subject with prerequisite conditions published by UTS.

Theory is delivered through interactive online modules rather than formal lectures, then applied in 90-minute tutorials and a linked storyboard-report assessment arc.

The subject repeatedly asks whether evidence supports moving a concept through the next gate of the new-products process.

Assessment in 24223 is distributed as follows: 25% Group Storyboard, 20% online Quiz, and 55% Individual Report comprising a draft report and final report

The operational assessment conditions matter here. No final examination is included in the published Spring 2026 assessment set.

The 20% quiz is completed online; its current duration, availability window and permitted resources must be checked in Canvas.

What makes 24223 demanding is concrete: Keeping the product opportunity, customer problem, concept, test evidence and launch recommendation connected as one traceable chain.

A creative idea is not yet a viable concept, and a favourable test result is not useful unless the sample, assumptions and next decision are explicit.

Passing requires at least 50% overall.

No separate component hurdle or minimum tutorial-attendance threshold is published in the captured Spring 2026 site.

For enrolment planning, The subject requires 24108 Marketing Foundations or 24109 Marketing and Customer Value, subject to the current UTS access conditions.

The sequence opens at Opportunity Evidence and the Storyboard-to-Report Route, develops its central analytical shift in Sales Forecasting and the A-T-A-R Model, and closes with Group Storyboard, Quiz and Individual Report Synthesis.

Coverage note: older handbook assessment figures are not used because the Spring 2026 Canvas summary is offering-specific.

Worked example · free

Screen a product concept without hiding the assumptions

Q [4 marks]. A concept scores 8/10 for customer value at 50%, 6/10 for capability at 30% and 4/10 for strategic fit at 20%. Make a continue–revise–stop recommendation.
  • 1Calculate the weighted concept score.
  • 1Identify the criterion creating the greatest downside risk.
  • 1Run a sensitivity check on the strategic-fit assumption.
  • 1Recommend continue, revise or stop with a named next test.
The weighted score is 6.6/10. Customer value is strong, but strategic fit is the weakest criterion, so the score supports revise rather than an automatic launch. The next gate should test whether the fit constraint can be changed without eroding the customer benefit. Record the original scores and weights before the test so the revised decision can be traced to new evidence rather than a quietly altered scoring model.
Sia tip — A scoring model organises judgement; it does not make the weights or evidence objective.
