Project - Each student is required to complete a final project at the end of the course. Students will select an issue in HR that they have observed in an organization in which they have worked. Students will utilize the understandings they have gained from course discussions, readings, and all other experiences to complete this project.
Students will interview an administrator within their organization for this project. This might be a school principal, assistant principal, or someone in the HR department. Since administrators often take breaks during the summer, arrange this interview during the first week of the course. A list of suggested questions will be provided.
The final project will consist of a power point presentation OR Prezi with voice over. The presentation should be of a quality that could be shared with colleagues in the workplace. The final project is worth 15 points and must include the following:
A power point or Prezi presentation (with brief narrative and bullet points) that includes between 15-20 slides with voice over narration
- Description of the issue
- Explanation of why this issue was a problem in the workplace
- Summary of interview questions and answers
- Review of literature about the issue (minimum of two peer-reviewed journal articles)
- Suggestions and recommendations for addressing the issue
- Action plan for resolving the issue with timeline
All references must be in APA format. Follow guidelines posted in course.
