you need 6 individual journals. You can refer to a specific topic that you found interesting during the semester, and use one theory to discuss each of the journals. There is no need to reference as it is all about "you". I suggest that you use the DEIP Model that I provided I think that..... You need to write in the first person - "I think that" The following format may help: Introduction/Purpose (200 words) Journal One (250 words) Journal Two (250 words) Journal Three (250 words) Journal Four (250 words) Journal Five (250 words) Journal Six - Industry Speaker (250 words) - available online..... Conclusion = overall reflection of the subject as a whole (300 words) Hope this helps

Areas for improvement (5 marks) The areas for improvement are either missing or unrelated to the key question, and neither are they supported by research. The areas for improvement and supporting research are presented, but they are not convincing or well connected. Whilst improvement is needed, there is a solid attempt at linking the areas for improvement with the relevant theories. The areas for improvement and evidence are of a high standard but would be more convincing if worded more clearly There is no doubt, by the way the areas for improvement and evidence are presented, that these will be resolved.

Assessment feedback (5 marks) The intro, conclusion and/or referencing are either missing or have failed to meet the minimum standards of postgraduate study. Intro and conclusion are minimal but sufficient, and referencing is present but limited. Major improvements needed. Intro and conclusion are very good but could be more comprehensive. Referencing is fine but inconsistencies exist. Impressive attempts are obvious in terms of the intro, conclusion and referencing, but there is scope for some improvement. The intro clearly states the aims and structure; the conclusion is a solid summary; and Harvard referencing is used correctly.

In-class activities (5 marks) The student rarely attended class and the activities outlined here are therefore different to what transpired in the classroom The student didn’t attend all classes and was mostly passive, hence why this section seems vague and only slightly sufficient. The student has made a good effort to link the activities with learning, but obvious gaps exist in terms of language and coherence. The student clearly derived value from the activities and has linked them strongly to self-analysis. Minor improvements needed. The student was not just present in class but also a valuable contributor, and this is obvious in the detailed and intelligent analysis.

Psychometric tests (5 marks) The student has not completed any psychometric tests or has not discussed them with enough substance. The student has undertaken the tests but hasn’t conducted the critical self-analysis required of a postgraduate subject. The student’s tests are interesting and the self-analysis is present but it is not clear the results have resulted in personal change. The student’s tests are analysed thoroughly and personal change is obvious. Problems with language prohibit further marks The student hasn’t just described the results of the test thoroughly but also clearly embraced the results and made personal changes.

Online resources (5 marks) Use of online resources are not included or are discussed without an obvious application to the student’s own leadership style. The online resources are discussed superficially without the critical analysis required of a postgraduate student. The online resources are discussed well, but greater self- analysis is required. Language, too, needs more coherence. The online resources are masterfully and analytically analysed but minor issues, such as language, preclude a higher mark. The online resources are discussed in expert language and self- analysis. The student has clearly engaged with the material.

Industry guest (5 marks) The student did not attend the industry guest session or does not demonstrate an understanding of the messages conveyed. The student’s interaction with the industry guest was passive and the learning derived from the session superficial The student demonstrated engagement with the industry guest but critical self-analysis is lacking and the writing style in parts is difficult to follow. The industry guest clearly had an impact on the student, as evidenced by a high level of self- reflection and critical thinking. The student evidently engaged with the industry guest, not just via this reflective journal but in the classroom, too.

To ensure the success of your reflective journal make certain that you incorporate the following: • At least one (1) example that was most relevant to you from each of the six topics above • Paragraphs that don’t just describe your experiences but critically analyse them as well • Evidence that demonstrates not just your strengths (current or future) as a leader but also your limitations You should refer to at least five (5) relevant theories that you have covered in the subject in your presentation to support your answers. Please refer to the Assessment Marking Guide to assist you in completing all the assessment criteria.
