Reflection is an important practice for students to make sense of the new concepts/ideas about themselves and others, and grow from a learning experience. For a management course, it is essential that students can also connect their learning to real-world experiences and develop a deeper understanding of the theories through the critical reasoning, analysis and evaluation of various contexts.

Through 4 homework assignments from S2 through $11, students will be required to give opinions, reflect on or analyse a YouTube video, a Podcast, an Academic Paper, a Book Chapter, or a debating topic in various forms. 

Each homework accounts for 5% of the total course grade.

One of the homework assignments must be dedicated to the Industry talk (Guest speaker's session)

• Students are required to write a self-reflection about what they have learned from the activity.
• Students are required to create a LinkedIn personal account, post the reflection, add the hashtag <<#WSU #WesternSydneyVietnam #WSUVN #Principles of management» at the end of the post, and submit the URL of this LinkedIn post on Canvas for assessment.
