Description of the assessment
This is a reflection report of 1,500 words written on a given template which asks you to reflect on your learning from the formative tasks, activities and exercises which you have undertaken over the early part of the module. It is therefore vital that you engage with and undertake the activities you are asked to do so that you have something to reflect on.
Specific details of this assessment are given in the Assessment Content below.
Relationship to Programme Assessment Strategy
These formative activities replicate and allow you to practice what you will need to do for the second assessment. Additionally, the feedback you receive from this first assessment can be used to feed into and enhance your second assessment.
Reflecting on your learning is part of the programme assessment strategy for all the programmes to which the module is attached. This allows you to describe what you have done, consider the ‘pros’ and ‘cons’ of those actions and decide how you might use these in the future.
Attributes and Skills
The following attributes and skills will be developed through this assessment:
Assessment Content
Over the first few weeks of the module, you will be asked to undertake a variety of formative activities before and during the workshops in which you will apply appropriate models, frameworks and/or theories to develop and build your knowledge and skills of creating a valuable ‘Born Global’ business opportunity. These activities will replicate and help you practice what you will have to do as part of CW2 (the 10 min video).
As a consequence of these activities, reflect on the following question, ensuring you critically evaluate how you applied appropriate models, frameworks and/or theories (but excluding PESTLE, SWOT or Porter’s Five Forces) as part of your reflection:
What did you do in the formative activities, what did you learn from these formative activities and the subsequent feedback, and how will you apply this learning in your CW2 submission, and in the future beyond that?
This assessment will be 1,500 words +/- 10% and a standard template will be provided for you to use for this report. You will need to:
· Work individually.
· Use Harvard referencing throughout the report, as appropriate.
· Decide which formative activities or elements of these activities you wish to reflect on – do not try to cover everything as you will not have enough words to go into the necessary depth.
· Ensure you reflect on the above question to fully answer the brief. Reflections which are overly general, generic and/or do not address the formative activities undertaken will have this fact taken into consideration during marking.
