Assignment 1: Due on Sunday of week two no later than11:59 pm CST
Academic Essay, 15 pts
Compose an essay response using a scholarly tone, following APA writing conventions, and integrating literature [see Tips for Writing with the Literature under Learning Modules for expectations.]
In this essay, students will:
Identify the organizational culture that impacts how knowledge and organizational learning are led and managed. Identify the primary internal and external stakeholders who are or will be impacted by knowledge and learning.
Suggest a significant initiative for your organization to roll out information platforms, database applications, records management systems, and training software to manage and share knowledge, support learning, and provide a rationale for the suggestion.
Indicate the individuals [by title] in the organization with a strong interest in learning and knowledge management and perhaps could serve as the knowledge/learning champion, manager, or leader.
Your essay should be no less than 3 and no more than 4 (stay within page limits) double-spaced pages in length. Use a minimum of 5 scholarly and academically credible resources. The course text will be one source. You may also choose to use sources from the weekly Readings/Resources. Additional, external peer-reviewed journal articles that are five years or less since publication, found through the Klinck Library, are encouraged as sources of evidence.
Integrate these sources throughout the essay as citations, providing multiple lenses upon which to view the topic(s), and demonstrating your ability to synthesize concepts. Avoid the use of quotations. They are someone else’s words. At the doctoral level, it is expected that students will use paraphrasing. Include an introduction and a conclusion. Format your essay, corresponding in-text citations, and references in 7th edition APA. Do not include an abstract.
If you have any concerns or questions regarding APA formatting, review the 7th edition of the APA Publication Manual. Proofread your essay for grammar, mechanics of writing, and APA compliance. Ensure your paper is submitted with the CUC Academic Integrity Cover Page and an APA Title Page. Review the associated rubric. All assignments are automatically uploaded to SafeAssign, an academic integrity checker.
