1st attempt:
1. An individual Assessment comprising 40% of the total course marks.
2. A group piece comprising 30% of the total course marks
3. An individual Professional Reflective Review comprising 30% of the course marks.
The individual assessment (1. and 3. above) is as follows:
1. An individual contribution to a theoretical issue, a case issue or work-based issue (2000 words) – 40% of total course marks.
2. A reflective review of the lessons learned through participation in the course (1500 words or a 5min video/oral presentation) – 30% of the total course marks.
Material for these individual assessed elements will be obtained through a series of timetabled individual and group activities complemented by directed reading and own research.
The group assessment (2. above) is as follows:
A group activity/challenge – 30%
of the total course marks. In undertaking the challenge, and in the preparation
of the assessed requirements (see on), students are required to keep minutes of
their group meetings and record peer contributions. The assessment team as part
of the assessment process reviews these minutes along with the reflections on
peer contributions.
The group-assessed requirements for this course are the co-creation of ‘a guidance paper’ targeted at providing company wide guidance on how to deploy, support and manage distributed team working.
Resit: There is no opportunity to resit the group-based assignment. Students may retake the individual coursework assignments within six weeks of having received a coursework grade of less than cas 9 together with feedback on performance.
There are no assessments for this course.
