Unit description
Unlike commercial marketing which seeks to simplify changes in purchasing patterns, social marketing seeks to change strongly ingrained behaviours or firmly held beliefs in a manner that benefits individuals and society at large. Examples of social marketing include campaigns to prevent or reduce alcohol consumption, smoking, drug abuse, domestic violence and unsafe driving. This unit examines how to design a marketing strategy that will move the target audience from indifference to action and ultimately maintenance. The unit uses a case study approach drawing on current and historic Australian and international campaigns.

A selection of case studies examples of existing social marketing programmes to choose from will be made available online on iLearn in week 2. Students will choose one case study and use materials from lecture, tutorials, textbook, videos, iLearn and readings to critically analyse the case study.
The individual assignment is to be completed in essay format, and the word limit is 3,000 words (+/- 300 words). Essays are to be submitted in tutorial class to your tutor in Week 7 Monday 7th September, and must also be submitted online through the Turnitin plagiarism software no later than 11:59pm on Monday 7 September 2015. If you do not hand in a hard copy of your essay to your tutor in your tutorial class you will receive a late penalty.
Individual Essays will be assessed against your critical analysis of the following in relation to your chosen existing social marketing programme:
- Analysis of formative research used to inform the existing social marketing programme

Short extension 3: No
AI assisted?:
Assessment 3 for this unit is a Creative Production Group project in which students will work in a group to create a social marketing programme proposal. Students will be invited to select a relevant social marketing issue, and conduct background research on the topic, and create a proposal for a social marketing programme to tackle the issue. Students are free to select an issue of their choice. Please consult the textbook, and various readings on iLearn for ideas if you wish.
Assessment 3 involves three parts:
Part A – Group Project plan and summary of initial background research, findings and ideas for your proposed social marketing programme. Worth 5%. DUE TO BE HANDED IN TUTORIAL CLASS IN WEEK 7.
You are required to work in your group to develop a project plan for how your group will work on the project. Please include a discussion on timelines, tasks, and plans for how you will work together effectively. You are also required to provide a summary of initial background research on the social issue you have selected, and ideas for your proposed social marketing programme. This task will enable your tutor to provide some valuable feedback and guidance to your group as you continue work on your project.
Part B - Class Presentation. Worth 10%. TO BE PRESENTED IN TUTORIAL CLASS IN WEEKS 11-13.
You are required to present your final social marketing programme proposal to your tutorial class and tutor in Weeks 11-13. Your tutor will advise of the schedule for class presentations in advance. Each group will have 20 minutes to present. Each group member is expected to make an equal contribution to the class presentation. A copy of your presentation slides and other handouts/materials used is to be provided to your tutor at the time of the presentation. Your group presentation will be assessed on :
- Background and context to the social issue
- Identify guiding theory, target group(s) for your programme, and programme objectives
- Quality of strategic and tactical recommendations for your social marketing programme
- Demonstration of use of research including pre-testing research in your programme proposal
- Presentation skills (including presentation style, use of visual aids, level of creativity, structure & sequencing, adhering to time limit)
Part C - Final Report. Worth 15%. DUE TO BE HANDED IN TUTORIAL CLASS IN WEEK 12.
Your final report should provide a comprehensive account of your social marketing programme proposal. The word limit for the final report 3,000 words - though a range of between 2,700 and 3,300 is acceptable. Reports that are shorted than this range will likely be lacking in detail and coverage of the key issues, and reports that are longer than this range will not be marked beyond the word limit.
Your final report will be assessed on the following criteria:
- Analysis of the background and context to the social issue
- Identification, justification and application of guiding theory
- Selection of and justification of target group(s) and selection of segmentation strategy
- Identification of programme objectives
- Quality of strategic and tactical recommendations for your social marketing programme
- Demonstration of use of research including pre-testing research in your programme proposal
- Quality of written communication (structure, formatting, spelling, grammar, readability of the final report)
Group Formation
In week 3, you will form into groups of 5. Your Tutor will then invite your group to select a social issue that you will be creating a social marketing programme proposal for. You will then be asked to sign the group contract and work together as a group over the remainder of the unit on the assessment task.
- Every group member must sign a group contract in week 3.
- Every group member must take a co-leadership role for a section(s) of the class presentation and the final report - this means that everyone will present one of the sections in class, and write sections for the final report.
- Every group member must complete a peer evaluation for each member of the group offering feedback and indicating their level of contribution to the overall group work.
ALL students must attend ALL of the tutorials in Weeks 11-13 in which there will be class presentations. All creative production materials must be uploaded to iLearn prior to the tutorials in which their group presents.
No late material will be accepted. No extensions will be granted. Students who have not submitted the task prior to the deadline or who do not attend the tutorials in which their group presents will be awarded a mark of 0 for the task, except for cases in which an application for Disruption to Studies is made and approved.
On successful completion you will be able to:
- Differentiate between commercial and social marketing and outline the scope of social marketing, seeking out new ideas and opportunities.

Email Ettiquette: About consultation with your tutors and/or unit coordinator/lecturer
Email Etiquette: Consultation with your subject coordinator and/or teachers via email
Your teachers receive a very large number emails each day. Before sending an email to teaching staff you must check whether the answer to your enquiry is already contained within the unit guide or the iLearn site for the unit. The vast majority of emails from students to teaching staff relate to information that has already been provided. If you send an email of this type you will not receive a reply. Therefore, you must carefully read the unit guide and iLearn site before sending a query by email.
In order to enable them to respond to your emails appropriately and in a timely fashion, students are asked to observe basic requirements of professional communication:
Consider what the communication is about
- Is your question addressed elsewhere (e.g. in the unit guide or on the unit iLearn site)?
- Is it something that is better discussed in person or by telephone? This may be the case if your query requires a lengthy response or a dialogue in order to address. If so, see consultation times above and/or schedule an appointment or see your tutor/lecturer in class.
- Are you addressing your request to the most appropriate person - please note that teaching staff do not deal with IT or student administration issues?
Specific email title/ header to enable easy identification of subject related/ student emails
- Identify the unit code of the subject you are enquiring about (as your teacher may be involved in more than one subject) in the email header. Add a brief, specific header after the unit code where appropriate
Professional courtesy
- Address your teacher appropriately by name (and formal title if you do not yet know them).
- Use full words (avoid 'text-speak' abbreviations), correct grammar and correct spelling.
- Be respectful and courteous.
- Academics will normally respond within 1-3 days. If the matter is urgent, you may wish to telephone the Teaching Staff whose contact details are given in this subject outline or contacting the Department.
- Please ensure that you include your full name and identify your seminar or tutorial group in your email so that your teachers know who they are communicating with and can follow-up personally where appropriate.
A guide to eLearning 'Netiquette' is available at:
https://www.mq.edu.au/iLearn/student_info/netiquette.htm
