LEARNING OUTCOMES
Upon the successful completion of this module, the student should be able to demonstrate the ability to:
- Understand and evaluate the concept of transferable skills and the how to adapt them to the requirements of an organisational setting (Organisational analysis and Reflective evaluation).
- Evaluate concepts of community and of personal development and ways of reviewing and extending interpersonal skills (Reflective evaluation) applying theoretical concepts and creative problem solving to real situations (Praxis - theory to practice).
|
Part B: Reflective Evaluation (outcome 2): 2000 words
Assessment Component 2 – 50%
The purpose of this task is to assess the ability of the student to reflect on practice, to relate theory to practice and to learn from the experience. It will require the student to reflect on the development of effective self-management, communication and interpersonal skills.
- The ability to demonstrate a clear understanding of the nature and purpose of reflective practice with reference to at least one theoretical model of reflection.
- Detailed reflection on personal experience with reference to the organisation discussed in Outcome 1 and what has been learnt throughout the activity and throughout the first term.
- Reflection on the relationship between relevant theory and the experience.
Follow a report structure with an introduction, reflection and a conclusion. Maximum word count is 2000. Your report must be referenced using Harvard referencing conventions.
Your work must be informed and supported by scholarly material that is relevant to and focused on the task(s) set. You should provide evidence that you have accessed a wide range of sources, which may be academic, governmental and industrial; these sources may include academic journal articles, textbooks, current news articles, organisational documents, and websites. You should consider the credibility of your sources; academic journals are normally highly credible sources while websites require careful consideration/selection and should be used sparingly. Any sources you use should be current and up to date, typically published within the last five years or so, though seminal works in the field may be older. You must provide evidence of your research/own reading throughout your work, using in-text citations in the main body of your work and a reference list that is alphabetical at the end of your work. Please use the Harvard referencing system.
1. Research-informed Literature
2. Knowledge and Understanding of Subject
Your work must demonstrate the growing extent of your knowledge and understanding of concepts and underlying principles associated with the subject area. Knowledge relates to the facts, information and skills you may have acquired through your learning. You must demonstrate your understanding by interpreting the meaning of facts and information (knowledge). This means that you need to select and include in your work the concepts, techniques, models, theories, etc appropriate to the task set. You should be able to explain the theories, concepts, etc meaningfully to show your understanding. Your mark/grade will also depend upon the extent to which you demonstrate your knowledge and understanding; ideally each should be complete and detailed, with comprehensive coverage.
3. Analysis
Your work must contain evidence of logical, analytical thinking, evaluation and synthesis. For example, to examine and break information down into parts, make inferences, compile, compare and contrast information. This means not just describing What!, but also justifying: Why? How? When? Who? Where? At all times, you must provide justification for your arguments and judgements. Evidence that you have reflected upon the ideas of others within the subject area is crucial to you providing a reasoned and informed debate within your work. Furthermore, you should provide evidence that you are able to make sound judgements and convincing arguments using data and concepts. Sound, valid conclusions are necessary and must be derived from the content of your work. There should be no new information presented within your conclusion. Where relevant, alternative solutions and recommendations may be proposed.
4. Practical Application and Deployment
You should be able to demonstrate how the subject-related concepts and ideas relate to real world situations or a particular context. How do they work in practice? You will deploy models, methods, techniques, and/or theories, in that context, to assess current situations, perhaps to formulate plans or solutions to solve problems, some of which may be innovative and creative. This is likely to involve, for instance, the use of real world examples and cases, the application of a model within an organisation and/or benchmarking one organisation against others based on stated criteria. You should show awareness of the limitations of concepts and theories when applied in particular contexts.
5. Skills for Professional Practice
Your work must provide evidence of your attributes in the application of professional practice. This includes demonstrating that you are highly capable of individual and collaborative working. You must communicate effectively in a suitable format, which may be written and/or oral, for example, essay, management report, presentation. Work should be coherent
