Harvard Business Review

Assessment Plan

  • To provide feedback to the learners/trainees indicating the areas of improvement and professional development

  • To measure the effectiveness of the delivery plan and evaluate the learning outcomes the required assessment criteria are provided in each assessment task for learner’s information. Assessment Method

  • Written Assessment Tasks

  • Practical/Analytical Tasks

The Written Assessment Tasks and Tests have been developed to address various parts of Performance Criteria as well as Required Knowledge.

The Practical Tasks are developed to demonstrate competence in Required Skills. These assessment tasks and activities are mostly designed as in‐class assessments, enabling the trainers to observe the work being undertaken and completed (i.e., demonstration of a specific/required skill). Practical tasks may also include use of online learning tools, equipment, activities, or use of software. Instructions for practical tasks are generally provided within the task description. However, trainers/assessor may set certain conditions for conducting and observing these tasks.

Observation forms part of in‐class activities, participation in designated group processes, presentation and provides an option where specific skills need to be demonstrated to the assessor.

Some of the assessments in this course may be used as Integrated Assessments; i.e., to use evidence created in one unit/task to determine competency in another unit/task. The concept behind the design of the integrated assessment is to limit repetitive tasks that test the same or similar competency elements in different units of competency.

To successfully complete this unit, learners must demonstrate that they have the skills and knowledge needed as indicated in the Competency Standards (2).

Assessment can be both a formative and summative process. Formative assessment is used to provide feedback to students and teachers to promote further learning. Summative assessment contributes to the judgement of student learning for competency/award purposes.

Submission of Work

The following assessments are planned for this unit;

These assessment tasks/activities have been described in detail in the following section. Task schedule to be advised by trainer/assessor based on the lesson and session plans.

Assessment Tasks

Assessment Task 1:

Outcomes Assessed

Performance Criteria:

In this assessment task, you will be required to research and develop an e‐business project plan for a business assuming that the wish to launch a new online business model. For the purpose of this task, you will assume the role of an E‐business developer. Your trainer/assessor will accordingly play the role of your manager. Ensure that you maintain an effective communication and interaction within the role play and obtain the necessary approvals at different states.

You must retain copies of all work in this task as the subsequent assessment tasks are linked to this task. Consider the following scenario;

  1. Fight parallel imports and gain competitive advantage with online presence

  2. Develop a business model based on a fast and low‐cost delivery system, eliminating Stuckists

Submission Guidelines

Submit:

  1. Value‐chain analysis (from production to delivery) – source to end‐user process and resources

  2. External and internal analyses (SWOT) – based on company profile and assumptions

  3. Estimated costs for implementation

  4. Legal, ethical issues in online marketing and exports (with references to the relevant legislations, codes etc.)

Assessment Task 2:

You will continue within the same roleplay used in the previous task, with your trainer/assessor playing the role of your manager.

Assume that following a formal submission of the Project Plan, Sarah has agreed to proceed with implementation of the proposed e‐business model. The idea is to divest physical shops and stores and gradually move all the business online. Assume that until a final business model is confirmed, the proposed site will incorporate both business‐to‐business and business‐to‐consumer sections. Accordingly, design an e‐business that helps with the transition and includes;

  • Online shop requirements (development and resources focus)

  • Proposed e‐business design (layout, structure, features, appearance, user friendliness, design elements. target audience)

  • Target market, and value chain structure (supply/production and distribution)

  • Perceived organizational changes (e‐business literacy, staff training, cultural changes, HR requirements, resource requirements)

You will also need to support the above model with relevant policies. As examples, draft the following policies; Information Management Policy

Quality Policy – Products and Services User Terms and Conditions

Submission Guidelines

Submit:

  1. Proposed e‐business design (layout, structure, features, appearance, user friendliness, design elements. target audience)

  2. Pricing, discounts and online promotions

  3. Strategies for implementation (in comparison with conventional business)

  4. Draft policy documents (4)

  • About Us page

  • Terms and Conditions

Assessment Task 3:

TBA

Outcomes Assessed

As this and the previous assessment tasks were undertaken in a simulated, role‐play‐based classroom environment, further implementation will require presenting the proposed e‐business design to the appropriate audience and collecting feedback.

Accordingly, you will be required to present your proposed e‐business design to the class, assuming the class audience as the organizational stakeholders. The presentation will be a formal presentation, using your continuing roleplay as the E‐business Developer.

To create the context for implementation, you will be required to use two sample website/online stores (one B‐to‐B and one B‐to‐C) as examples of the actual stores (select and shortlist from other stores you visit and keep links/references of all sites for information). Your presentation will accordingly incorporate;

  • Comparative analysis of the competitive/benchmark stores/sites

  • Business relevance and brand association (e.g., does the site look like the type of business it is) Site navigation and ease of use

  • Visual elements – balance of text, images, video and appeal to visitors Contents

You will need to summarize the e‐business model and strategies developed in previous tasks. For evaluation purpose, use the sample site as a benchmark.

Save the draft notes and designs as evidence of preparation. Presentation time: 20 minutes

  1. KPIs for monitoring e‐business performance

  2. Continuous improvement (feedback and survey analyses)


Submission Guidelines

  1. Strengths and weaknesses in each model

  2. Your proposed e‐business design (Assessment Task 2) and comparison with the sample sites

  1. KPIs for monitoring e‐business performance

Academic Policies and Processes

  • Language, literacy and numeracy (LLN)

  • Assistive technology

The Disability Standards for Education 2005 were formed under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992. They clarify the obligations of training providers to ensure that learners who have a disability are able to access and participate in education and training on the same basis as those without disability.

Some examples of reasonable adjustments could include:

  • adjustment of the physical environment, e.g., specific furniture, arrangement of classroom.

The determination of “reasonableness” requires judgement that must take into account the impact on the RTO and the need to maintain the integrity of the qualification. While reasonable adjustments can be made to the ways in which evidence of performance is gathered and demonstrated, the criteria for making Competent/Not Yet Competent decisions (and/or awarding grades) should not be altered in any way. That is to say, the standards expected should be the same irrespective of the group and/or individual being assessed (Disability Standards for Education 2005).

The college acknowledges skills and knowledge obtained through:

  • Formal training (conducted by industry or educational institutions in Australia or overseas)

  1. Undertake a challenge test; and/or

  2. Attend an interview with specialist staff.
