Assessment 3: Specifications PPMP20008 T3 v02, 2019 PPMP20008 -Assessment 3: Lessons Learnt Introduction Part A: Lessons Learnt Presentation + Part B: written submission (total: 30%) This is an individual assessment. Completion of the unit PPMP20008 is like a project in that during the term there are things that go well (i.e. passing the multiple choice online quiz) and things that don’t go well (i.e. not completing all the prescribed readings). This assessment item requires you to reflect on your participation and experience in this unit, identify lessons learnt and consider what actions can be taken to address those lessons. In addition, this assessment requires you demonstrate how you intend improving - on how you deal with similar situations in the future. Please note these learnings are based on your role as a student in PPMP20008 and NOT based on supplied project (including the material learnt from PMBoK or Prince 2), for this unit. You will need to determine a framework to base your lessons learnt on. In practice, lessons learnt discussions are usually framed in certain ways to generate learnings. You need to consider the most effective way to do this within the context and the experiences of the unit gained during the term. Your assignment (Part A: lesson learnt presentation and Part B: written submission) will be assessed on the extent to which it meets each of the following criteria: Part A: Lesson Learnt presentation Part A comprises an ‘in class’ two minute presentation - using only two slides (one being a title slide) as per the template (4 marks). The first (title) slide should contain the unit details, your name, student number, campus, tutor name and presentation title. The second slide will comprise the content of your presentation and must include only one lesson learnt. Note: the lesson learnt used in the two minute presentation, must be the same lesson learnt (lesson 1) contained in the written submission (see part B below). Part B: Written submission The written submission involves both student initiated reflection (lesson 1) and one guided (tutor led) reflection (lesson 2). Student Initiated Reflection (lesson 1) Student initiated reflection involves a process where students alone choose what experiences to reflect upon concerning lessons learnt. Guided (or tutor led) Reflection (lesson 2) In contrast, guided (or tutor led) reflection involves a process where the tutor guides (or assists) the student concerning the area of reflective practice. Students then reflect upon experiences (relating to that area) which subsequently prompt students to identify lessons learnt. Breakdown of Written Submission (i) Introduction (2 marks); (ii) Lesson Learnt Framework (planned and actual) (6 marks); (iii) One student-initiated lesson learnt (lesson 1) and one guided (or tutor led) lessons learnt (lesson 2). Each lesson learnt must be accompanied by improvement strategies described against the SMART attributes (SMART – specific, measureable, achievable, relevant and time-bounded) (16 marks); and (iv) Conclusion and references (2 marks). Submission timelines Part A: Lesson Learnt presentation (two minute presentation): The two minute presentation must be completed in week 12. Please note that depending on class sizes some students may need to present in earlier weeks. For in-class students, the accompanying powerpoint slides must be up-loaded on Moodle by 8am Monday, week 12. Flex (distance) students do not present in person, however, they must submit a video of their two minute presentation, together with the powerpoint slide (on a template supplied) by 5pm Friday of week 12, comprising one lesson learnt. Part B: Written Submission: All students must complete a Part B: written submission (template supplied) by 8am, Monday of week 12. Note: Part B: Written submission and Part A: Lesson Learnt presentation slides must be uploaded in Moodle. Distance (flex) students: Flex students need to upload (on Moodle) a video of their two minute presentation, the powerpoint presentation slide (see template) together with the written submission. Separate advice will be forwarded to flex student discussing the presentation component of this assessment. Please ensure that you watch out for this advice. Please note that extension requests, forwarded by e-mail, will NOT be processed. Only requests forwarded via Moodle, will be responded to.

    Important Instructions: Please read carefully
This written submission involves student-initiated reflection (lesson 1) and one guided (tutor led) reflection (lesson 2). Student initiated reflection involves a process where students choose what experiences to reflect upon concerning lessons learnt. In contrast, guided (or tutor led) reflection involves a process where the tutor guides (or assists) the student concerning what experiences to reflect upon, which then prompts students to identify lessons learnt.
1. IntrODUCTION (2 marks)
Instructions: Provide a brief introduction covering the following points
1. Explain what reflective practice is (provide at least one supporting reference);
2. Briefly explain the aim or purpose of the lessons learnt (or learned) process in project management (provide at least one supporting reference); and
3. Provide an overview of what this assignment contains.
    Reflective practice is one of the learning process which helps in the continuous engagement in the actions that are performed by the others. Therefore the reflective practices help in the the serving the critical attention to the writing as well as to the works of others. Through the involvement of the reflective practices one can easily analyse the theories and steps that others used in terms of performing different actions in their professional and also in their personal life (Knott & Scragg, 2016). Furthermore the reflective practices also offer the opportunity in front of the users to involve the examination process to have the effectiveness of the practices that are required for the performances of the different organisational practices based on the evidence.
There is the presence of aims and objectives in the lesson that are learned in the class discussion. The basic aim of the learned lessons of the PMBOK project management is to take effective knowledge regarding the process of project management with the introduction of the effective parameters. The other aim of this learning process is to involve developed methods in the business operations with the constant format.
The learning process of lesson also carries some objectives within it. The major objectives of the learning process of the lesson which is delivered based on the PMBOK project management is the discovery of the developed methods that can help in the reduction of the issues that may come within the business management practices. Therefore the learning of the PMBOK project management also helps in the management of the organisational projects with the effective and successful manner on the basis of the requirements of the projects.
Discussion of this assignment contrasting the overview of the lesson which is learned in the class discussion. In that context within the discussion part of this project there is the reflection of the lesson that has already been learned based on the PMBOK project management porcartices. There is also the involvement of different strategies in this project that can help in the adoption as well as can help in the completion of different projects with the successful contexts. The time frame and the strategies that are required for the completion of projects are also presented in the reflection part of this project.

Guidance Notes:
Satisfactory answers will comprise at least two paragraphs.

    Through the overview of the class discussion I have learnt that in terms of the effective management of the projects there is the requirement of involving PMBOK model of project management in the projects (Varajão, Colomo-Palacios & Silva, 2017). The involvement of the project management model in the projects can help in the early completion of the projects with the invol;vermnet of the success with the highest graphs.
The other lesson which I have learned from the class discussion is that for the development and the successful completion of the projects there is the requirement of involving developed methods and steps in the projects. The involvement of develop methods and steps in the project the management practices can be performed with the efficient manner (Fleming & Koppelman, 2016). The introduction of tegh developed practices in the projects also ensure the success graph of the...
