Assessment component #1: Business Article Review
Assessment & feedback
Assessment is an essential part of learning. It’show we benchmark your understanding, measure the development of your key skills and recognise achievement. However, assessment is about much more than just a grade. The key reason we mark work is to provide you with feedback to support ongoing learning.
Feedback is an essential part of this process and Iam committed to providing you with as much honest, open and constructive feedback as I can. This feedback can take a number of formats; it maybe verbal or written feedback from me as your course tutor, it maybe highlighting how you have performed against the relevant marking criteria or it maybe feedback from your peers.
Feedback, in whatever form, is provided to help you understand what you have done well and highlight areas where you might improve. It is always given with the aim of supporting your learning journey. If this feedback is ever unclear or you do not understand what you need to do to improve, you should ask me. Iam always here to help and will be happy to discuss this with you one-to-one.
Similarly, feedback should never be just one way! If you have ideas or would like to make suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I welcome any ideas that might help me to improve the support I offer to students.
Module ILOs
As part of our commitment to ensuring that each Module is clearly outlined and identifies the key skills you will develop during the course, we define ‘Intended Learning Outcomes’ or ILOs. These are split into 3 areas: Module-specific skills, discipline specific skills and personal aims.
For this module, the ILOs have been defined as:
Module-specific
1. Critically discuss organisational design principles, and the different types of organizational structures that support effective strategy design and execution.
2. Evaluate models that drive innovation and facilitate strategic adaptation and sustained long-term firm performance.
3. Evaluate the significance of managing organisational networks, and how network dynamics impact successful strategy implementation.
Discipline specific
4. Synthesize theory and organisational data in order to think strategically about organisational design, networks, and innovation.
5. Demonstrate awareness of emerging trends, tools, and practises in strategic management.
Personal & Key aims
6. Analyse and critically evaluate real-life company situations and business cases.
It’s important to review and understand these, as not only do they highlight what you will learn during this course and how this will support your future personal and profession aims, but it also highlights what you will be assessed on.
