The module leader will use Turnitin feedback studio to return your feedback and unconfirmed internally
\nmoderated marks. You can find the Turnitin digital submission points from which you will access your
\nfeedback and unconfirmed internally moderated marks in Content > Reassessment.\n<\/p>\n

\n3 Peer Review and Academic Paper\n<\/p>\n

The headline quotation for the Academic Paper and Peer Review is: <\/p>\n

“Leadership in a team setting is much less about command and control and more about getting the most
\nout of a diverse and experienced group of individuals” (Ernst and Young, 2013).\n<\/p>\n

\n3.1 Peer Review\n<\/p>\n

Peer Review only has one step during reassessment. You can read what this step is in the following sub-
\nsection. There are only two possible Peer Review marks: 0% or 100%. To gain 100%, you must complete
\nall reassessment tasks and requirements stipulated in this Reassessment Brief for Peer Review. You
\ncannot apply for a Short Extension of Time for Assessment Component 001 (Peer Review) because the
\nmodule leader has notified the Student Engagement Team that it cannot grant you a Short Extension of
\nTime for Assessment Component 001 (Peer Review).\n<\/p>\n

\n Peer Review Assignment\n<\/p>\n

The module leader will give you access to two students’ draft Academic Papers for Peer Review once
\nSLAS has provided the module leader with its official list of reassessment students. <\/p>\n

This assessment component requires you to provide constructive, supportive feedback using the
\nReassessment Peer Review Questions provided by the module leader. Using the questions, you must
\ncomplete a peer review for Reassessment Draft Academic Paper 1 and Reassessment Draft
\nAcademic Paper 2. The questions are mapped to the Module Learning Outcomes (MLOs) presented in
\nSection 6 below. You must write and submit both peer reviews in a single Microsoft Word 365 document
\ncalled Reassessment Peer Review. <\/p>\n

Peer Review Submission
\nThe module leader will give you access to the Turnitin digital submission point for Peer Review once
\nSLAS has provided the module leader with its official list of reassessment students. <\/p>\n

You will use a Turnitin digital submission point at Content > Reassessment > Peer Review
\n(Reassessment) to submit your single Microsoft Word 365 document called Reassessment Peer
\nReview. <\/p>\n

You must be careful when submitting your digital file because your first submission attempt is deemed
\nfinal. Therefore, you cannot ask the module leader to give you a second opportunity should you
\ninadvertently submit an incorrect file. You can find the minimum and maximum word limits for Peer
\nReview below from Section 4.1. According to Northumbria University’s Late Submission of Work and
\nExtension Requests Policy, the module leader will penalise unauthorised late submissions.\n<\/p>\n

\n3.2 Academic Paper\n<\/p>\n

The Academic Paper aims to help you develop your academic skills in literature reviewing, critical
\nthinking, evaluative academic writing with integrity and accuracy in using in-text citations to underpin your
\nnarrative theoretically.\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Dr Allan Osborne | KA7064 People in Project Management Page 3 of 7\n<\/p>\n

Academic Paper Assignment
\nWhen preparing to write your Academic Paper, the module leader expects you to consider the following
\ntwo theoretical stands associated with group dynamics: <\/p>\n

1. There is a considerable body of knowledge in psychology and the social sciences called group\n<\/p>\n

dynamics that examines how people work in small groups or teams; this research has been collected
\nover the past century and has developed into a broad base of knowledge about the operation of
\ngroups.\n<\/p>\n

2. The use of teams in the workplace has expanded rapidly during recent decades. Management
\nresearchers and applied social scientists have studied this development to advise organisations on
\nhow to make teams operate more efficiently and develop individual and group competencies.\n<\/p>\n

\nTaking these strands into consideration, you should unite and contextualise critical theories associated with
\nteam dynamics from psychology and the social sciences with critical theories related to groups, teams, and
\nmanagement processes from management and organisation sciences to write an Academic Paper that
\nchallenges the following statement: <\/p>\n

Understanding the group dynamics within teams does not provide insight into the factors that influence
\nour behaviour and that of our team members. Neither does it facilitate effective team leadership to
\npromote team cohesion and success.\n<\/p>\n

\n Academic Paper Submission\n<\/p>\n

The module leader will give you access to the Turnitin digital submission point for the Academic Paper
\nonce SLAS has provided the module leader with its official list of reassessment students. <\/p>\n

You will submit a digital copy of your Academic Paper in Microsoft 365 Word format using the Microsoft
\n365 Word Template provided by the module leader to a Turnitin digital submission at Content >
\nReassessment > Academic Paper (Reassessment). The template is available from Content >
\nReassessment > Microsoft 365 Word Template. You must submit your Academic Paper anonymously. <\/p>\n

You must be careful when submitting your digital file because your first submission attempt is deemed
\nfinal. Therefore, you cannot ask the module leader to give you a second opportunity should you
\ninadvertently upload the wrong file. You can find the maximum word limit for the Academic Paper below
\nfrom Section 4.2. According to Northumbria University’s Late Submission of Work and Extension
\nRequests Policy, the module leader will penalise unauthorised late submissions.\n<\/p>\n

\n4 Word Limits
\n4.1 Peer Review\n<\/p>\n

The Reassessment Peer Review Questions will direct you to answer a short series of questions based
\non the MLOs, presented in Section 6 below. Each question has a minimum word count of 50.
\nHowever, there is no maximum word limit. The module leader will penalise you by awarding you 0% for
\nPeer Review if you do not satisfy the minimum word count for each question for each student’s draft
\nAcademic Paper. <\/p>\n

4.2 Academic Paper
\nYou must declare the word count of your Academic Paper in the relevant section of the Microsoft 365
\nWord Template the module leader gave you. The maximum word limit for the Academic Paper is 3,000
\nwords, excluding the Abstract, which has a separate 200-word limit. The Academic Paper word limit
\nincludes the following elements: <\/p>\n

\uf0a7 The main body of the text
\n\uf0a7 In-text citations, e.g., (Smith, 2011) or Smith (2011)
\n\uf0a7 Direct quotations from primary or secondary source materials <\/p>\n

You can exclude the following elements when calculating the word count of your Academic Paper: <\/p>\n

\uf0a7 Title
\n\uf0a7 Abstract (no more than 200 words) <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Dr Allan Osborne | KA7064 People in Project Management Page 4 of 7\n<\/p>\n

\uf0a7 Keywords (no more than three keywords)
\n\uf0a7 Figures
\n\uf0a7 Tables
\n\uf0a7 Reference list <\/p>\n

You are not allowed to include the following elements when writing your Academic Paper: <\/p>\n

\uf0a7 Table of contents or illustrations
\n\uf0a7 Appendices
\n\uf0a7 Bibliography
\n\uf0a7 Endnotes
\n\uf0a7 Footnotes
\n\uf0a7 Glossary of terms\n<\/p>\n

\n5 Referencing Style\n<\/p>\n

The module leader requires you to write your Academic Paper in an academically acceptable format with
\nintegrity. Using the Harvard Cite Them Right method, you must present your bibliographic citations in the
\nbody of your Academic Paper and reference list. Cite Them Right is freely available to Northumbria
\nUniversity students at https:\/\/www.citethemrightonline.com\/. You must enter your Northumbria University
\nonline user credentials to access the online guide.\n<\/p>\n

\n6 Module Learning Outcomes\n<\/p>\n

Upon completion of the Academic Paper, you will be able to: <\/p>\n

6.1 Knowledge and understanding:
\n1. Define and evaluate selected key theories and concepts associated with the main characteristics and\n<\/p>\n

processes of teams, the issues facing teams, and the organisational context of teams.
\n2. Critically appraise selected key theories and techniques associated with the groups and teams in an\n<\/p>\n

organisation, organisational structures, and management processes. <\/p>\n

6.2 Intellectual\/professional skills and abilities:
\n3. Empowered with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to create, participate in, and effectively lead real\n<\/p>\n

and virtual project-orientated teams.
\n4. Critically review the literature on team dynamics, management, and organisational behaviour and\n<\/p>\n

engage with what others have written through evaluative discourse. <\/p>\n

6.3 Personal values attribute:
\n5. Exhibit the professional ethics characteristics of a University postgraduate student.\n<\/p>\n

\n7 Assessment Criteria\n<\/p>\n

The academic staff marking your Academic Paper will use the assessment criteria matrix (see Section 8
\nbelow) to grade your submitted work. The Module Assessment Criteria Matrix uses Northumbria
\nUniversity’s postgraduate descriptor as its educational base. <\/p>\n

When you receive your summative assessment feedback, academic staff will give you feedback using the
\nTriple Plus\/Delta Retrospective, which includes ‘three things you did well’ and ‘three things you need to
\nimprove.’\n<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

8 Module Assessment Criteria Matrix\n<\/p>\n

9 Reassessment: First-Sit or Re-Sit <\/p>\n

You must note the module leader cannot give unauthorised students not included in SLAS’s official list of
\nreassessment students access to reassessment resources. If the module leader has not notified you he will
\nprovide you with access to the reassessment resources when you think you should have access, you should
\narrange to speak with a member of the Ask4Help team.\n<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Dr Allan Osborne | KA7064 People in Project Management Page 6 of 7\n<\/p>\n

Suppose the Chair of the Examination Board (EB) grants you a reassessment attempt of the module,
\neither a First-Sit or Re-Sit. In that case, the module leader will give you access to the reassessment
\nresources, either Coursework or Examination (depending upon the Module Specification). <\/p>\n

The reassessment period will typically occur after the end-of-level EB. However, the EB may grant you
\nan early reassessment before reaching your end-of-level stage. You can find details of when
\nNorthumbria University’s Assessment\/Reassessment Periods will be in Northumbria University’s
\nAcademic Calendar, which you can access from its website or the Student Portal. <\/p>\n

During the reassessment, the module leader recommends that you reflect on the feedback you received
\nfollowing your First-Sit attempt to make appropriate revisions to your reassessment attempt. <\/p>\n

When the reassessment is Coursework, the module leader will require you to revise your First-Sit attempt
\nsubmission; however, for an Examination, the module leader will require you to take another Examination
\nusing the Bb Test tool. <\/p>\n

The module leader will place any additional resources needed to complete your reassessment attempt in
\nContent > Reassessment on the Bb module once SLAS has provided the module leader with its
\nofficial list of reassessment students. You should read the Reassessment Brief in both cases to
\nensure you complete all required reassessment tasks correctly. You can access the appropriate
\nsubmission points during reassessment from Content > Reassessment on the Bb module once SLAS
\nhas provided the module leader with its official list of reassessment students. <\/p>\n

After receiving official notification from SLAS of the reassessment students, the module leader will contact
\nyou by Bb Message to notify you of your ability to access the reassessment resources and the
\nsubmission date(s) and time deadline(s) for the reassessment(s) for Coursework. However, if the
\nreassessment is an Examination, you will be notified by SLAS when and where the reassessment
\nExamination will take place. SLAS will publish this information in Northumbria University’s
\nExamination Timetable in the Student Portal. <\/p>\n

You should note that a reassessment Examination will take place on campus. Suppose you are an international
\nstudent planning to return home briefly during the summer and would like to request that you take a
\nreassessment Examination overseas in your home country. In this case, refer to SLAS’s knowledge base article
\n(KBA) published on the Student Portal here.\n<\/p>\n

\nSuppose you become eligible to complete a reassessment attempt but cannot do so. Subject to an
\napproved Personal Extenuating Circumstances (PEC) application, the EB may, by exception, allow
\nyou to re-take the module at the next scheduled delivery. If you pass the module following a Re-Sit
\nattempt, you will only be awarded the pass mark for level 7 modules, i.e., 50%.\n<\/p>\n

\n10 Guidance for Students on Policies for Assessment\n<\/p>\n

Northumbria University has many policies for assessment. The Student Portal contains guidance for
\ncurrent students on these policies, including relevant procedures and forms. <\/p>\n

Current students can access the Student Portal and search for information and guidance on a range of
\ntopics, including: <\/p>\n

1. Assessment regulations and policies
\n2. Summary information for students, including how Northumbria University sets assessments, how\n<\/p>\n

Northumbria University marks with fairness and how to act on your module assignment feedback
\n3. Managing assessments in emergency scenarios
\n4. Assessment Feedback and Northumbria University’s Anonymous Marking Policy
\n5. Examinations and conduct in learning environments
\n6. Late submission of work and extension requests
\n7. Personal Extenuating Circumstances (PECs)
\n8. Student appeals and complaints
\n9. Academic misconduct
\n10. Disability and unforeseen medical circumstances
\n11. Assessment Regulations for Taught Awards (ARTA)\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
