Assessment Item 3: 

Addresses learning outcome(s):

On successful completion of this unit, students will be able to:

1. Analyse personal and organisational situations in terms of theories of knowledge;

2. Analyse the knowledge needs of an organisational situation;

3. Select and apply appropriate systems components and design a knowledge management system;

4. Critique different forms of knowledge in light of current research (PG only).

6688 (PG) Task: To design an intervention to improve the situation described in the case study for Assessment 2 using KM principles, practices and tools and describe an approach to implementing the solution. This assignment builds on the analysis undertaken in assignment 2 and should describe the architectural model/approach used for the design and the reasons for that selection. Students in an appropriate work situation may alternatively examine the prospects for (or of) a KMS in their workplace with approval from the Lecturer.  Case studies on organisations you do not have first-hand experience of or were not used in Assignment 2, will not be accepted.

This should be presented as a discussion paper of 2000 - 3000 words.

8570 (UG) Task: To design an intervention to improve the situation described in the case study for Assessment 2 using KM principles, practices and tools. This assignment builds on the analysis undertaken in assignment 2.  It should also identify the architectural model/approach used for the design. Students in an appropriate work situation may alternatively examine the prospects for (or of) a KMS in their workplace with approval from the Lecturer.  Case studies on organisations you do not have first-hand experience of or were not used in Assignment 2, will not be accepted.

This should be presented as a discussion paper of 1500 - 2500 words.

The sorts of questions you should seek to answer are:

1. How would the knowledge flow through your designed solution?

2. Are there any existing knowledge assets or solutions that may be part of the system?

3. What are the candidate techniques that can be used?

4. What is the proposed KMS? - give it a name.

5. What functions or processes are required to enable the system?

6. Who would manage the KMS?

7. What infrastructure, tools, equipment or techniques are required to address the problem?

8. What are changes required to policy, procedures, attitudes, organisational structure or physical location to be made to improve the way the organisation operates? (PG only)

9. How would the organisation know if the intervention produced benefits and what they were? (PG only)

There are several alternative options for this assignment. Students may:

1. Review the knowledge used (misused or hidden) in public debate;

2. Write a report on the claims of KMS vendors with particular attention being given to the means of evaluation of their products;

3. Build a prototype ICT arte fact that embodies knowledge representation.

I want pg task (2000-3000 words) but should be same topic of assignment 2 for assignment 3.
