INTE2397 Knowledge Management Assessment Task 2: KM Strategy Semester 1 2016 Due Date(s): Part A: 18 th April at 23:59 and Part B: 30 th May at 23:59 Mark Allocation: 50% of total mark INTE2397 Knowledge Management  2016-1 Created By: Associate Professor Vanessa Cooper  Page 2 of 7 Assessment Task 2: Knowledge Management (KM) Strategy (50%) Aims The aim of Assessment Task 2 is to enable you to demonstrate that you have a broad understanding of the theory and practice of knowledge management. This assessment task will provide you with an opportunity to take the theoretical concepts covered during the course and consider how these might be applied in a practical organisational setting. Specifically, Assessment Task 2 requires you to develop a KM strategy for an organisation. In order to increase your motivation and interest in completing this assessment task, you are encouraged to select an organisation and industry of interest to you. The course learning outcomes (CLO) addressed in this assessment task are:   CLO1: Analyse and explain the developments in the ‘new economy’ and in particular the place and nature of knowledge in such developments   CLO2: Demonstrate a broad, critical and practical understanding of knowledge management theories and practices in the real world.   CLO3: Investigate the linkages between management and knowledge management and in particular of those between knowledge management and strategic and human resources management   CLO4: Examine the various human, organisational and technological components that together combine to produce knowledge management   CLO5: Explore the role and place of information and communications technologies in the practice of knowledge management   CLO6: Develop a knowledge management strategy for an organisation General guidelines It is envisaged that this assessment task will result in the development of a professional KM strategy. The strategy should draw upon the material studied in each of the ten topics covered during the semester – of course depending on the organisation selected, the emphasis on each topic is likely to vary. You should ensure that you are able to acquire a sufficient understanding of your chosen organisation in order to enable a meaningful KM strategy to be developed. Such understanding might be sought from secondary sources such as case studies in textbooks, or information provided by corporate websites. With the permission of appropriate personnel at the selected organisation, you may also elect to conduct interviews or surveys with key employees – a process which one would expect to occur in developing such a strategy in a commercial situation. The assessment task will be submitted in two (2) parts:  Part A: KM Strategy (Draft) (20%)  Part B: KM Strategy (Final) (30%) Part A: KM Strategy (Draft) (20%) The purpose of the draft submission is to ensure that you obtain useful feedback prior to submission of the final KM strategy. INTE2397 Knowledge Management  2016-1 Created By: Associate Professor Vanessa Cooper  Page 3 of 7 At a minimum you will be required to submit:  A “skeleton” of the proposed structure of the report  Completed sections comprising: o Background to the organisation including its objectives, structure and other relevant contextual information o Overview of the approach and methods that will be used in developing the KM strategy  An initial attempt at conducting a strategic and knowledge gap analysis for the organisation  An initial list of the types of recommendations that might be made to the organisation  References  Appendices Given the word limit for the final KM strategy is a maximum of three thousand (3000) words (excluding references but including any appendices), your draft submission should be less than this. You should submit your assignment, along with a completed assignment coversheet, to MyRMITStudies via the link provided in the Assessment 2 folder. Your assignment will be automatically submitted to the “turn-it-in” plagiarism detection software when you submit the assignment through MyRMITStudies. Upon receipt of feedback for Part A of the assessment task, you are welcome to make an appointment with your lecturer in order to discuss any difficulties with the assignment that you might have. Part B: KM Strategy (Final) (30%) The final KM strategy should be a maximum of three thousand (3000) words (excluding references but including any figures, tables and appendices). Learning to communicate comprehensive information in a concise manner is an important skill and therefore penalties will be applied for exceeding this word limit. Such penalties might include either a reduction in the marks awarded, or alternatively, that only the first 3000 words will be marked. The following list is designed to provide general guidance as to the structure of the knowledge management strategy. However, this list is a suggestion only and by no means should limit your creativity when constructing your own strategy:  Executive summary  Background to the organisation o Organisational objectives, structure and other relevant contextual information  Overview of approach and methods used in developing the KM strategy  Analysis: Strategic Gap Analysis/Knowledge Gap Analysis o Where the organisation wants to be  Cultural Infrastructure  Operational Infrastructure  Technological Infrastructure o Where the organisation is now INTE2397 Knowledge Management  2016-1 Created By: Associate Professor Vanessa Cooper  Page 4 of 7  Cultural Infrastructure  Operational Infrastructure  Technological Infrastructure o Summary of Strategic/Knowledge Gaps  KM Roadmap o Recommendations (to address Strategic/Knowledge Gaps)  Cultural Infrastructure  Operational Infrastructure  Technological Infrastructure  Closing Statement  References  Appendices Marking guidelines The marking criteria will consider: your understanding of the relevant knowledge management theories, concepts and issues covered in the weekly topics throughout the semester, and your ability to think about the practical implications of these theories and issues in practical organisational settings. Specific marking criteria for Part A KM Strategy (Draft) will consider the extent to which you have applied the relevant theories, concepts and issues for knowledge management within the first six (6) topics of the course to the context of the case organisation. Specific marking criteria for Part B KM Strategy (Final) will consider (i) the quality of the analysis conducted of the current state of the organisation and its current knowledge management initiatives and (ii) the quality of the recommendations you make for the organisation’s future knowledge management initiatives. See also the “Program Learning Outcomes”, “Australian Computer Society Core Body of Knowledge (CBOK)” and “Seoul Accord” sections in this document for further information regarding the objectives of this assessment task and thus associated marking criteria. Requirements for submission of assessment tasks All assessment tasks should be submitted by the due date. The written component for Part A of this assessment task should be submitted at or before 23:59 on Monday 18 th April whereas Part B of this assessment task should be submitted at or before 23:59 on Monday 30 th May. Both Part A and Part B should be submitted through MyRMITStudies along with a completed assignment coversheet. Your assignment will be automatically submitted to the “turn-it-in” plagiarism detection software when you submit the assignment through MyRMITStudies. Late work is not normally accepted. Late submissions will be penalised 10% per day (or part day). Work will not be marked if received more than seven (7) days late and will receive zero (0) marks. If you think you might have a problem meeting an assignment deadline, raise it with the course coordinator as soon as possible.
