This assignment simulates a consultancy scenario where you are a team of consultants, working to deliver a report to a client. Authentic assessment tends to focus on contextualised tasks, enabling students to demonstrate their competency by actively and critically exploring, discussing, and meaningfully constructing concepts and relationships in contexts that involve real-world problems.
This assignment allow students to develop an advanced understanding of organisational functionality, through the perspective of the Functionalist and Social Relativist paradigms. Therefore, your second assignment is a group project. In groups of 3 to 5 students, you are to develop a functional specification comprising (i) process model and (ii) taxonomy of a solution to a given organisational problem.
