Project activity

Overview

Thus far in the semester you have been assigned readings and module activities, and more recently have been assigned a major written assignment you must complete by the end of the semester. Each of these, of course, serves a purpose in your learning: the readings and modules provide you with a basic foundation of material in this particular field, while the major written assignment expects you to discover what others (i.e. leading experts in the field) have to say about your chosen topic. This activity, however, allows you to identify a real-world topic or issue from within the field and share it with the rest of the class. Think of it as a college version of “show and tell”.

Project Demands

As is detailed in the syllabus, this assignment can be either a photo essay or a video, produced by the student that highlights an issue pertaining to the public sector and that has a decidedly fiscal management focus. Again, you only have to do one or the other (i.e. you do not have to do both the photo essay AND the video as I have. I produced both merely to demonstrate both approaches). See below for examples of both, as posted by your professor.

The project activity has two components.

1. The project itself; and
2. Criticisms and other observations to fellow classmates’ projects.

Timeline

Subsequently, the two activity components have different due dates. Be sure to consult the course calendar for exact dates (by semester); however, the due dates follow the general guidelines below.

1. You are required to upload the entire finished project to the appropriate Webcourses portal (i.e. this discussion forum) by the last day of the regular semester; and
2. You are also required to provide comments as prescribed by the rubric about your colleagues’ projects by the last day of finals week.
   • Be sure to consult the rubric as to the demands of your comments. This is not merely a free comment section: The rubric spells out specific requirements as to what you are to critique.

Note: While the DUE DATE of this activity shows the last day of active classes (i.e. the end of finals week), students must post their project to this portal one week before that date (according to the course calendar). Because this activity has two components (submitting the project and then commenting on the project(s) of others) it necessitates two due dates, which cannot be accommodated by this system.
