Subject

MGT210 Organisational Behaviour

Teaching Staff

Dr Arnela Ceric

Motivation

As Arnela states in her introduction to students “I prefer generating active participation from students as this fosters a positive learning environment. I hope to inspire you to be intellectually curious and become sophisticated business leaders.” This collaborative actively promotes participation, providing opportunity for students to learn from each other, and foster positive collaborative environments.

Implementation

Students are required to analyse the popular TV show “The Office”, and in self enrolled groups, work together to create a report with the requirements specified below:

Both, assignment 1A and 1B, are based on group work, and hence, you are required to form a group of minimum three and maximum four members in week two of the session. Group members need to self-enrol in a group by using Interact2 tool: Groups. Your task in this assignment is to develop an outline of a report focusing on analysis of employee motivation in an episode of a TV show ‘The Office’ (American version). You can watch the TV show through the CSU Library, EduTV database.

Subject

INF541 Game Based Learning

Teaching Staff

Kylie Hutchings Mangion

Motivation

The subject INF541 is designed as an introduction to understanding the potential role of games and gaming for learning in the digital age.

Assessment 4 - Compendium chapter proposal - Students work collaboratively with peers to develop a chapter proposal for Compendium: Game-Based Learning 21C #gbl.

Assessment 5 - Chapter and critical reflection - The purpose is for students to become immersed in peer collaboration, peer evaluation, and peer response, to achieve mutual learning goals. Students were encouraged to respond back to the student thought-leaders making the comments, and together create the online publication Compendium: Game-Based Learning 21C #gbl.

Implementation

A wiki (http://wikispaces.com) is used for students to share proposals and interact around the collaborative task. CSU Thinkspace is used as a platform for students to share their final work. This provides for an ongoing compendium of work from one year to the next with students building and co-creating a knowledge resource for others to use as well.

The experience is intended to position game-based learning as the topic of open scholarly discourse, available for students, educators and practitioners alike, and where feedback and commentary is part of the participatory learning of online environments and in keeping with the flexible and learner-focussed cognitive frame of #gbl.
