Assessment - Short Response Discussion Topics

Task

This task requires you to submit TWO responses, as blogs, to each key topic in week 1 and 2 (ie a total of four responses). Blogs should be approximately 150 to 200 words each. This assessment is approximately 800 words in total. After submitting your responses into the student blog forum, you also need to submit your all the responses to the topic questions as a single word document using Turnitin by the due date. This will enable me to provide you with confidential individual feedback.

Step 1. Create a blog entry - Instructions for creating a blog entry are in the Resources section of the subject site. You are welcome to comment constructively on another students work if you so choose.

Step 2: Once you have submitted your blog, you need to paste the contents of your responses to each question into a word document, then when you have done all four, submit it (including your name, student number and subject name and code) via Turnitin by the due date.

Task - Topic Discussion

Topic 1 - Blog 1: What is organisational change? 

Blog 2: Discuss why it is necessary for contemporary organisations to appreciate the scale and scope of the change they are facing.

Topic 2 - Blog 3: Discuss some reasons why some change programs in organisations fail, or under-achieve, on the intended goals and then illustrate with a case example.

Blog 4: Discuss further reasons (different from Blog 3) why some change programs in organisations fail, or under-achieve, on the intended goals, and then illustrate with a (different) case example.

Australian student, 4 blogs, Maximum 200 hundred words per one blog, no more than 800 words. Please note: The case examples need to focus upon change programs which were implemented but that failed, or under-achieved, NOT upon organisations that fail because they did not implement a change program (although organisational failure may be the outcome of a failed change program!) Guidelines for online participation - If you are new to blogs you might be a little nervous about the process. My advice is to take the plunge, begin posting early and then actively build your confidence as you become more familiar with the process. Please ensure that you include at least ONE academic reference for each posting. Use APA6 referencing at the end of each post. This reference list is not included in the word count.

Contributions to online BLOG - The purpose of the blog, as one key medium for this assignment, is to enable the sharing of knowledge and learning between students and to enable you to make constructive comments upon each other work, if you would like to. (Note: any direct comments on others' blogs done via the blog comment function are not included in the final assignment word count). While considering the views of others (i.e the readings and other students blog posts), your own blog should reflect your thoughts and ideas related to your engagement with this material, in answering the questions.

The implications for you in crafting your contributions are to: keep postings short and to the point. Although these blogs are not necessarily intended as mini-essays, please construct your sentences and paragraghs so that they are intelligible to other readers. Read other relevant blog postings before crafting yours so that you can learn from each other, and build on these postings, rather than merely repeating just what another student has written. Go for quality of insight rather than quantity of material. Online submission via Turnitin is required for this assignment. Details will be provided by your subject lecturer.
