Purpose and aims:

As a small group**, students will research, analyse and critically appraise an existing activism campaign aimed at addressing a social or environmental issue.

Each team is required to choose ONE campaign from the following list:

1. Say NO to plastic bags – http://www.cleanup.org.au/au/Whatelsewesupport/SayNOtoPlasticBag.html

Once the campaign of interest has been chosen, students will critically analyse and appraise campaign objectives, planning, design and outcomes and write up their findings in s business report.

** This assessment requires students to actively engage and work collaboratively with a diverse range of students to be able to understand the perspectives of others; therefore, small groups of 5 (groups will be formed in week 3 or 4) will be formed by self-selection (with the support of the lecturer) however, you are highly recommended to have a range of disciplines, ages, cultural and linguistic skills as the greater the diversity of your group, the broader the range of ideas that will be available to you. This assessment task provides students an opportunity for inter-cultural learning, which requires a culturally heterogeneous mix of students.

Description of the assessment:

Students are required to reference at least 4 types of resources in the group written report:

1. Minimum of 6 journal articles (students are required to use scholarly and peer-reviewed articles) and textbooks.
2. Newspaper/Magazine articles
3. Company/NGO Websites
4. Company Sustainability reports

A total of 15-20 references are expected for the report

Assignment development and submission method: OU Wiki

Students are required to actively engage and participate with their group members to deliver Assessment Task 3a using an OU Wiki.

What is OU Wiki?

A wiki is a web‐based platform helping you work together to create and edit a set of linked pages. It’s a quick, easy way of creating a mini‐website. Wiki also keeps a record of who has made changes and created content and a history allowing you to ‘roll back’ to an earlier version. These features make it a useful tool for teamwork and creating a shared resource.

How to use it?

OU Wiki is a module designed in LMS and students simply can use it as a platform to write their assignments. It is quite similar to common methods of typing e.g. MS Word but is web-based. The full instruction of how to use it, will be described within the workshops. We have prepared a tutorial video for you to learn how to use it. Please visit your LMS.

How will it be assessed?

OU Wiki requires students to actively engage and work collaboratively with their group members. It also helps the lecturer to track students’ engagement and progress during their participations. Therefore, students would be evaluated using the common method of evaluation. Please see Grading Criteria Assessment Task 3a: Group Campaign Appraisal Report.

MARKING SHEET FOR GROUP WRITTEN REPORT

• As you view the following video, think about the scope of the disasters – they are far beyond the individual just littering. Therefore, as you review the images and stories contained in the video, think about the reading and the laws that are discussed, and how they may impact the company, environment, and business practices in general.
  • Top 10 Man-Made Disasters (6:31)

• You are a business owner who is environmentally aware, and thus you use the local river to help generate some electricity for your small business. You are doing well using this method of energy generation, but you begin to notice that over time the river seems to be flowing more slowly, and that is causing you to have sporadic losses of power. Upon inspection, you notice the river does seem a bit slower, seem to have more debris in it, and now has a funny smell. What are some legal concepts you will need to know to understand your rights? You want to do something, but are not sure what. Then, you remember your business law textbook. What are some of the legal issues and concepts you will need to know to mount a legal fight?
