...Lounge Hints and tips for writing assignments What follows are some tips which should help you when you are preparing for the assignment route of assessment. Your tutors are likely to use contact time in a different way than if they are preparing you for examinations – as well as covering the theory, more time may be spent debating the application of theory to practice, and perhaps using the assignment as a basis for some discussion. Studying and preparing assignments Any studying member who require support in preparing and writing assignments should contact their tutor/study centre for advice and assistance. Guidance on formats for assessments Please be advised that there is not a prescriptive approach to producing documents for assessment. The content and structure of the document depends upon the audience addressed and the subject matter. You can undertake research on different types of documents by looking at what is available on the internet. For example, putting in the words “discussion papers for conferences” brings up a wide variety of discussion papers for a conference audience. To view more examples download our Guidance on formats for assessments. Check our Command words guide: when answering your questions on your assignment, it is important to ensure you have interpreted what you’re being asked to do. Assignment Briefing Your tutor should brief you on the assignment, and they may do this either by briefing the whole assignment or in sections as they cover the associated...

...dave@powerstrategy.com Office Hours: Before class and by appointment ------------------------------------------------- About the Course Course Description and Overview Growth companies are the engines of product innovation, market expansion and value creation. But sustaining the growth of these dynamic private companies -- typically with revenues of $10 to $100 million -- requires a unique set of skills, different from those required in either startups or large public companies. Many promising growth companies stall as their business models mature and they outgrow the processes and teams responsible for their early success. Using a mix of case studies, group discussions, interactive exercises and written assignments, this course provides a general management perspective of growth companies: strategy, execution, team, and capital. You first learn different growth strategies, including market disruption, “white space” discovery, and business model innovation. You then connect strategy with execution through market selection and positioning, “lean” development of new offers, and pipeline management. Because execution depends on team effectiveness, you explore team alignment and meeting rhythms, and the role of leadership in creating a growth culture. Finally, you learn about raising growth capital, managing boards and planning for a successful exit. Readings draw from Clay Christensen, Jim Collins, Verne Harnish, Patrick...

...DSS 630 Database Management Systems Theory and Practice COURSE EXPECTATION FORM Course Description: The implementation of technology such as bar codes and scanners enable organizations to accumulate large volumes of data. Further, as the technology to collect data gets cheaper and more simplified, business organizations gather and process a huge amount of data and information. Thus, data management has become a key function for many organizations. Managers need high-quality information to manage change in a turbulent, global environment. Business organizations use information systems to store and retrieve data, the raw material in knowledge-based economies. This repository of data is organizational memory. Databases are an important component of the organizational memory. Thus, information systems professionals should develop a comprehensive understanding of data management principles to fully utilize the organizational role of information technology. This course provides core skills of data management for the relational database management systems. This course will review the theoretical concepts and applications of a modern relational database management system. In addition to a basic theoretical presentation of the database design concepts, students will be required to design and develop a database application using a modern fourth generation language system. This course teaches students data modeling and design...
