Description / Requirements

You are required to submit three (3) journal entries on different topics covered in the unit and one journal entry on Professional identity self-reflection, as specified below. 

Each Journal Entry must be clearly organised under three headings below and should include the following content and/or address the following questions: 

1.Learning

What have I learnt (i.e., what was new/different for me)? Reflection on learning from lectures, seminars and assigned reading for the topic you choose. 

2.Critique 

How relevant is the topic of study? This should include a discussion of strengths and weaknesses of the key theories/ideas/concepts for the topic. You will need to make reference to at least one of the assigned journal article readings for the topic you choose.

3.Reflection

To what extent do the concepts/ideas and theories reflect what happens in my work place? (If you are not currently working, then reflect upon a previous place of  employment or an organisation with which you are familiar such as a sport club). 

How can I make use of this learning in a future situation? For this section, you may choose to focus on one or two aspects of the topic.

You are suggested to select a couple of key aspects in relevant topics that you have learned in this unit (MMM240) to: 

1)demonstrate your ability to evidence skills and experience, using a range of relevant examples from both formal course experiences, and/or extra-curricular activities (e.g., experiences working in a group assignment or part-time jobs, sport teams) to support your claim, and

2)show awareness of your own learning, skills and experience; and how this can be used to promote yourselves concisely and persuasively to potential employers.
