TMQT1125 — E – Commerce
Course description
As the world increasingly develops in computer networking, people can quickly communicate and connect with one another more easily through many types of internet services. This is precisely a favorable condition for the field of E-commerce to develop ever more strongly. Today, E-commerce has become a familiar means of transaction for major commercial companies around the world. E-commerce is capable of providing great benefits to both large and small enterprises, and the party that benefits most is usually the customer. Customers can purchase products more cheaply, more quickly, more efficiently and more conveniently, while enterprises can bring their products to the market in the fastest way and sell more conveniently. The E-commerce course for economics students is designed to combine theory and practice. The course provides a general introduction to the basic issues related to e-commerce in order to equip students with foundational knowledge of e-commerce. The course will help students understand the content of doing business on the Internet, the types of business on the Internet, the necessary conditions for doing business on the Internet, and the legal, economic and social infrastructure issues that affect business activities on the Internet.

APPENDIX 1: EXAMINATION MATRIX
The examination is generated from the examination question bank (in accordance with the current decision of the Rector). The examination currently exists in two main forms: multiple-choice examination and essay examination (including essay combined with multiple-choice). The examination is generated from question baskets; the multiple-choice examination has 40 baskets, and for the essay examination the number of baskets equals the number of questions in the examination. Each question in a basket is determined to correspond to a level of cognition according to Bloom's taxonomy.
Each multiple-choice question is worth 0.3 points. An essay examination question contains multiple contents; it is necessary to separate the contents and determine to what level each content contributes to the CLO.
