PROJECT MANANGNMENT
Order Description
1. Introduction to the Coursework
This coursework is worth 25% of the total mark for the module and should be done individually. The coursework intends to assess the depth and breadth of your critical analysis on the team arrangements and team dynamics based on you experiences of carrying out your Group Coursework in the first assignment of MANG6293.
You are expected to provide a deep reflective and critical analysis of your teamwork’s organizational aspects and your personal experience of working within your team in the form of an essay of 1000 words.
The essay is an academic piece of work and is evaluated as such. Hence, your descriptions should not be presented as a diary of events. Your analysis should draw upon the lecture contents, discussions on case studies and your background studies (textbooks and journal papers).
Avoid referring to team members by names. Keep them anonymous and refer to them, for example, by their roles and responsibilities or codes and so on.
2. Essay Content
Here are the main topics to be discussed and to be included in your essay:
a. Introduction to the essay. (10%)
b. Discussion and analysis. (60%)
c. Conclusion. (30%)
d. Essay Appendix*.
*You need to add the exact appendix of your submitted group coursework to your individual coursework. Providing this appendix will make it easier for you to refer to your teamwork arrangements (e.g., your WBS or Responsibility Chart) if needed. This will also facilitate marking your individual coursework. This will not be counted toward your word limit.
* For criteria of the ‘Overall Quality of the Essay’ please refer to the last item on the marking criteria table.
