Posting of Comments on Sakai for Assigned Article
Readings
(INSTRUCTIONS)
Note:
Comments on readings must be posted by 6:00 AM Monday before the
class session date assigned. This
will allow me enough time to review them!
Purposes of posting comments:
1. Ensure that you are well prepared for class discussions.
2. To prepare you for the exams
Instructions for posting comments:
For each article, only ½
of the students will be required to post. This will be designated as students
with EVEN # ODD #, TOP HALF, or BOTTOM half.
Find your student roster
number on the Sakai Discussion board.
Others are welcome to post if you feel
the urge!
Choose either option one or two below.
Option one (early bird): the first
respondent should provide a brief summary of the article describing:
1.
Essential
findings (results for research studies)
2.
Essential
conclusions (keep it succinct and short.)
Option two: All subsequent respondents please answer one of the “Article Questions” linked to the
article on the syllabus. You may answer a question that has been addressed
before your posting if you critique the answer or provide a different answer.
Or provide your own insights on implications and/or applications:
Implications that the findings and/or conclusions have on the theory and practice of I-O psychology, particularly issues involving motivation, satisfaction, and leadership. (Note that some findings may have implications for all three issues or for none).
Applications (other than the obvious)
for how the findings or conclusions can be used by I-O consultants to improve
organizational functioning. Particular emphasis should be placed on the
potential the findings have for solving the HBR case problems.
We will review and discuss the postings in
class.
· Please write succinctly, clearly and proofread them
before posting to Sakai.
· Do not reiterate or duplicate previous responses
unless you have something to add or critique.
· Bullets are appropriate where appropriate (Y Berra)
·
Do not start
a new thread.
