Mana 4322 case study

Each individual is asked to prepare a case analysis on FORD (found in our text C277). The expected length of this Case Analysis is 3 – 4 pages, 1-inch all-around margins, single-spaced and Times New Roman 12-point font.

Assignment 2: New Supervisor Training on Performance Evaluations

 Create a PowerPoint presentation to train new supervisors on how to conduct performance evaluations. Whether you use an annual evaluation, real-time feedback, or quarterly evaluations, it is important that new supervisors understand: • the rationale for a performance evaluation in general, • the rationale for the specific one in use, • the instrument used, and • the process for the evaluation.  

CT5 Template Mod 5

 

For each of the individual learning preference topics that follow, brainstorm about instructional design considerations specific to your selected business/organization and the identified learner needs from your needs assessment:

  • David Kolb’s four basic learning styles
  • Ned Hermann’s brain-based approach
  • Visual, Auditory, Reading, and Kinesthetic (VARK) model
  • Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligences.

Prior to outlining the design considerations for each of the above four topics, you will first need to describe your identified learners and their needs. This information should be from the results of Stage 3 (learning needs) and Stage 4 (learner needs) of your needs assessment assignment completed in Module 3. Continue using the template you have been using to organize your ideas. You may also want to make adjustments to earlier sections based on instructor feedback. This will help keep you prepared for the final project and help inform your future assignments from week to week.

Please ensure that your work is well written, supported by two to three scholarly sources, and in conformance with the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). The CSU Global Library is a good place to find these sources. Submit your completed template for grading.

Module4 CT Template

 

The Critical Thinking assignments in this course build upon each other to help you complete the final Portfolio Project, an instructional design blueprint for a business or organization. Based on the profile you created in Module 2 and the needs assessment in Module 3, this week you will explore ways to integrate relevant theories into your design blueprint.

For each of the three learning-theory topics that follow, brainstorm instructional design considerations specific to your selected business/organization, and the identified learning and learner needs from your needs assessment:

  • Basic theories of learning: behaviorism, cognitivism and constructivism, and Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs
  • Malcolm Knowles’ Adult Learning Theory (or Andragogy)
  • Individual characteristics of learning: motivation, goals, experience, culture, and generational differences.

Prior to outlining the design considerations for each of the above three topics, you will first need to describe your identified learners and their needs. This information should be from the results of Stage 3 (learning needs) and Stage 4 (learner needs) of your needs assessment assignment completed in Module 3.

Please ensure that your work is well written, supported by two to three scholarly sources, and in conformance with the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). The CSU Global Library is a good place to find these sources. Submit your completed template for grading.

HR Management Assignment

 The purpose of the Final Paper is for you to culminate the learning achieved in the course by describing your understanding and application of knowledge in the field of employee training through the analysis of a scenario related to the creation of a training course.

Focus of the Final Paper

In the course, you have examined several areas of employee training. For this paper, you will be applying this knowledge by examining the creation of a cultural diversity training course.

Imagine that you are in training and development for a global organization. You have been tasked with the creation of a cultural diversity training course that all employees will be required to take. Before designing the course, you must consider the ethical and cultural issues of the task.

In an eight- to ten-page paper (excluding the title and reference pages), you must address the following:

  1. Examine any legal implications in creating a training course that discusses culture. Identify what laws and regulations should be considered.
  2. Explain how the demographic diversity of your employees affects discussions of cultural diversity.
  3. Examine which ethical implications should be considered.
  4. Examine if training can be standardized for all locations in a global organization. Analyze what media is best suited for training in a global setting.
  5. Provide recommendations for implementing the training course.

9.  What questions were easy?  

10.  What questions did you find difficult?

11.  As a result of this unit what did you learn?  I realize these interviews were not for “real” but now that you have been through this process what should you do to prepare for when it is for real?
