INTRODUCTION

The Module assignment is divided into two tasks, as follows:

  1. Writing about getting onto the work placement,
  1. Looking back on the work placement and reflecting on what you did, working in teams and how you developed your skills.

Your personal development is also very important too. Write about how you as a person have developed as a result of the work placement experience.

THE AIM OF THE ASSESSMENT

The first assessment (Task 1) should demonstrate your analysis and understanding of the process you went through to secure your work placement place.

The second assessment (Task 2) should demonstrate your reflections on your new learning, development of skills, and how you worked with others individually and as a team member.

ASSIGNMENT TASKS

So, here are the two assessment tasks:

 

Task 1 Securing the Work Placement with the chosen organisation.

Task 2 Evaluating the Work Placement, by reflecting on your own effectiveness, working in teams with others, and your personal skills development.

The two tasks of the overall assignment are submitted via Turnitin for marking. The weightings are as follows:

Task 1

Marked out of 100%

1,000 words

Weighting 40%

Task 2

Marked out of 100%

2,000 words

Weighting 60%

Total

100%

 

 


The overall pass mark for the Module is 40%. Turnitin takes the marks for each Task and calculates the final mark out of 100%

Task One – Getting on to the Work Placement (LO1; 1000 words)

[Note: “LO” means „Learning Outcome‟]

In this first task, write about the activities you undertook in order to secure and then begin your work placement.

Suggested themes to cover might include the following:

  • Preparing your CV for the placement managers to read and ask you questions about yourself at interview. The help you received to get the CV prepared?
  • How you searched for a placement, and then applied, for example by letter, or text, or email and so on,
  • The kind of placement that would suit you and your skills,
  • Your placement interview, (if you had one),
  • The kind of person was your employer looking for,
  • What you have learned from this process,
  • What you might do differently in any future job applications,
  • Looking back, would you do anything in a different way?

Task Two – Reflecting back on your Work Placement experience (LO‟s 2, 3 and

4; 2,000 words)

This “reflection” provides you with the opportunity to consider how it influenced you as a person, on your new learning, development of skills, and how you worked with others individually and as a team member.

A useful definition of “reflection” in the context of work placement:

"A process of looking back on what has been done [in your work placement] and pondering on it and learning lessons from what did or did not work…. The act of deliberation, when the practitioner consciously stops and thinks what shall I do now?" (Conway 1994)

The following topic areas you may want to include are as follows:

1.  Your Placement Organisation (LO2)

  • How the work was organised, structured and managed by the staff,
  • Areas of work that was very interesting, demanding and challenging for you,
  • The main challenges of the placement, and what those challenges were, and why,

2.  Working with others (LO3)

  • What was your experience of working with other people?
  • What you learnt about working on your own and with other staff,
  • How you got on with managers and senior and junior staff,

You can talk about working with individual colleagues, working in teams, how various activities were planned and coordinated, and where tasks could be simplified, improved, or where there were opportunities to show your skills to others.

3.  Your own personal learning (LO4)

  • Your best experiences of the placement, and why,
  • How you developed as a person, what you learnt that was new and rewarding, and whether there were any surprising changes to your approaches to this kind of work.
  • And finally, your general reflections on the work placement as a whole and the role/s you played during this placement, and........
  • Reflection on your learning overall.

As this is an academic module, there is a learning opportunity for you to add in any theory that is relevant. It might involve subject such as leadership, working in teams, managing work or other people, job development and so on. Try to make sure that you show this be adding in textbook references, authors, theory, quotations from theory sources wherever you can to show your learning process.

I ordered the literature review for my research project in rush delivery. I was not expecting that they would complete my order 2 hours before my chosen time. The quality is also nice. Thank you for help.

My order went 3 hours late and I also went mad. Then the customer support team calmed me down and offered me a flat discount of 50%. However, I did get my order and chilled out as the work was exactly what I requested. Next time I would place my order a bit sooner to save any trouble.
