Activities
This project requires you to develop critical and creative thinking in others by:
identifying a team and individuals under your leadership who require coaching
in critical and creative thinking
Vocational education and training is all about gaining and developing practical skills
that are industry relevant and that can help you to succeed in your chosen career.
For this reason, we are giving you the choice to base this project on your own
business, one you work in or a familiar with, or you can use the case study
provided. This will mean that you are applying your knowledge and skills in a
relevant, practical and meaningful way to your own situation!
The case study has been designed to cover a wide range of work areas. If you are
using the case study, select a work area and team relevant to your field of interest
(e.g. IT team, Sales team, Manufacturing team etc.)
It is important that you are able to access enough information for your chosen
business in order to be able to do your assessment. As a minimum this should
include organisational policies and procedures related to workplace training and
those that address features of critical thinking.
You will need to communicate with people who work for, or are involved, in this
business several times. Your communication may be either directly with actual staff
members or fellow students/your assessor can play the roles of relevant
people/parties. Communication can be in any appropriate format (e.g. face to face,
video conference, email) as long as it meets the requirements outlined in the
Project Portfolio.
You will be collecting evidence for this unit in a Project Portfolio. The steps you
need to take are outlined below.
