Beskrivelse af
eksamensforløbet
Throughout the semester students will work in larger case groups
of students consisting of one or more exam groups to promote
group discussion and the generation of ideas - however, the
exam synopsis will be handed in in smaller exam groups as described
above.
The oral exam
The student makes a short oral presentation of approximately 3
minutes on the synopsis at the examination. The student may bring
the synopsis and notes in the form of key words, which is not to
exceed more than one A4 page. The examiner can ask clarifying
questions during the presentation. Building on the presentation,
the examination then takes the form of a discussion between the
student and the
examiner

| Kursets indhold, forløb og pædagogik |
|
The aim of this course is to provide students with:
- relevant theories, concepts and models within the field of
organisational theory and organisational behavior,
- perspectives and models related to the design of organisational
structures,
- theoretical and practical knowledge about how organisations
communicate internally and with the external environment, and how
they organise themselves in order to communicate more effectively
(as well as for other organisational purposes), and
- the ability to critically reflect on the theories, concepts and
models and their relevance in describing, analysing and evaluating
issues of organisation and corporate communication in relation to
companies and organisations.
The course focuses on two main fields:
- Organisational theory
- Corporate communication
|
| Beskrivelse af undervisningsformer |
The course is based on lectures, discussions and
group work. It will include video-recorded online lectures,
interactive sessions face to face or online as well as case
presentations. Each lecture is completed with a mini-assignment
with focus on application of concepts and theories.
To prepare for the exam, students thus have the opportunity to
collect a portfolio of mini assignments or so-called
'deliveries' :
Students will be assigned to a group/case and are expected to make
deliveries based on given themes/issues related to their case (i.e.
leadership, power, organisational design,
communication/culture/change management) .
The delivery is in the form of one A-4 paper which has to be
uploaded on CANVAS following the exercise/group work session. The
delivery can be used in the final written product. |
| Feedback i undervisningen |
During the course, group assignments ‘deliveries‘
(oral and written) allow students to test their knowledge and get
feedback on theories and their application to corporate CASEs. The
assignments completed in class are uploaded on Canvas (A-4 page(s))
for the whole class to demonstrate findings and enable comparison
across cases. Feedback is given to the entire class, showing good
examples and pointing to typical mistakes.
Feedback is also provided in class and online and requires class
participation. |
