Final Self-Reflection

This assignment include a detailed self-reflection, and review of the activities and assignments completed over the entire fall 2018 semester. You must create a PowerPoint slide or other use other media to present your findings for assignment. 

1. List at least 3 things you learned about yourself in this class. This could be anything, such as, “I gained a better understanding of resources available to me…” Or “I learned that I need to rearrange the way I spend my time…” 

2. You will need to provide a description of your ideal job/Major. This description needs to be more detailed than “a businessman.” State the title of the occupation; what type of company you might work for; what types of things you would be responsible for; and any other details important to you. 

3. Incorporate the information gained from the assignments: 16Personality/O*Net assignment, scavenger hunt, guest speakers and informational interview to share information you learned about the job. 

4. Consider how your interests, values, skills, personality traits, and strengths shape the type of student you are.

5. Provide a description of at least one major that would either help prepare for future career or that would be necessary to achieve your personal goals. Again, be specific; don’t state that you need to major in business administration. Explain what you will learn by completing this major (and/or why you will need to learn this information). 

6. Also, consider whether you will need graduate study and/or additional training. If so, explain what type and how you can increase your chances of being accepted to graduate school. 

7. List two or more of at least three general education courses you can take that are related to your field. Explain how these courses are related to your field. 

8. Description of at least one activity (such as volunteer work, survival job, internship, etc.) not related to school coursework that could help you to get your ideal with your college and future goals. 

9. Reflect on how your families’ educational experiences/career choices or circumstances that influenced you in your choice to pursue a higher degree. 

10. Your conclusion should sum up what you have learned in this class and what you plan to do with this information. For instance, you might find that you are now even more interested in your major ; you might discover that you want to change your mind about your major or career; or you might discover that you need to complete more research. 

Identify, discuss and critically analyse a product/ event / organisation / company or subculture which has not yet been exploited. How would you take this from a small entity to a larger, perhaps profitable business? How could you join different segments to create a more cohesive commodity? Again, keep in mind that the module concerns the events and leisure industries – talk to your tutor if you are unsure of the topic. 

When writing your assignment please make sure you include: 

• Historical perspective of the brand or subculture – Where did it come from? 

• How did it (option 1) or will it (option 2) go from a niche product or cultural movement to a reputable commercial entity? 

• What is the future for this product or culture? 

• Is there room for further expansion? 

• Who were and who would be the consumers for this product? 

• How would you grow the brand / culture without alienating those who were there ‘at the beginning’? 

• If you use an example that has been used in class, you need to address a different angle than what we have discussed in the module. 

• If you choose option 2, extra consideration will be given for creativity and uniqueness, since you are actually thinking of how you could bring your plan to market in the crowded field with a unique selling point (USP).

You are to write an individual essay of 2,500 words that documents your developing ‘research attitude’ while also addressing your group’s What If…? question in greater depth.

In the first section of the essay, you should discuss your group’s What If…? question by focusing on one academic paper, backing up the main points in the paper with evidence from other academic sources. You should provide a detailed critical evaluation of its content, approach and findings in relation to your topic. To support your individual stance, you can also refer to theories in sociology and any wider reading that is relevant. 

In the second section of the essay, you are to provide a rationale for your group’s selected mode of presentation and a description of its potential use in the classroom along with a consideration of any limitations. You should reflect on your experience of learning online and in a group, throughout this course. Again, this discussion should be supported with references to relevant literature on both collaborative pedagogies, learning technologies, developing a critical perspective and anything else you consider relevant.

Finally, you should draw on your own experiences as a learner on the What If…? course to discuss any implications or connections for your role as a future teacher.

In summary,

the individual essay (2,500 words) must:

• articulate and present a critical, personal stance towards an educational issue that is supported

with a detailed discussion of ONE academic paper (LO 1,2)

• include a rationale for your selected mode of presentation for the group project that is supported

with links to literature; (LO 3,4)

• consider the potential of educational technology tools for communication and presentation in

the classroom (LO 4)

• make connections to your future teaching practice, including the experience of group work, from

the ideas you have explored on the course. (LO 1,2,3)

My Choice Organisations:

• A University Alumni Association (in a developing country PREFERABLY or developed country; Pseudonymised?) OR

• London Underground Limited

Choice Topic:

Topic: The impact of enterprise social media on employee outcomes: a case of London Underground or The impact of enterprise social media on University Alumni Association in a developing country or developed country)

Aim: Companies are increasingly investing in so-called enterprise social networking services (ESNS) that are reported to facilitate more effective private communication within organisations. This study attempts to explore the impact of Yammer on knowledge sharing, employee connectivity and decision-making in the context of London Underground.

The above will ensure a practical focus on a real business issue of importance in either organisations for which I will need to develop suitable recommendations. It will then provide an opportunity to demonstrate value from this M.Sc. course to these organisations, as well as an opportunity to practice and develop my consulting skills.
