Managing People and Organisations Integrative Management Activity. Assessment is through coursework. The final component, Integrative Management Activity, is divided into two parts. The first part is a report of 3,000 words on a shadowing activity in a workplace involving management of change. The second part asks students to explain in a paper of 1,500 words how course learning has progressed and been transferred into workplace practice.
Interactive workshops provide support for students' research activities.
The workshops are spread throughout the course at key points, and an introduction to management research methods is included. The learning process actively involves students in their learning by valuing work experience. The emphasis is on relating knowledge and understanding to workplace activities. The reflective learning cycle is placed at the heart of course activities to encourage self-sufficiency of learning and development. The course runs on Tuesdays during term-time from 2.00pm to 8.30pm.
