judgement and decision making
Task: Write 5 abstracts:
1. Write an abstract of 300 words for the four (4) nominated readings in the Reading Material and Exercises book (RME). The nominated readings for the current semester
are listed under the
heading “Further information” see below.
2. Write an abstract of 300 words on a single reading of your choice from a different section of the RME to those that contain the nominated readings. That is not from
the sections which the
above nominated readings have been selected.
3. Under each of the five (5) abstracts, write a 150 word example of how each reading relates to your work experience, or how they could relate to an imaginary work
situation. If you do not have
any relevant work experience the “experience” components may be based on your personal experience.
A feature of the assignment is the requirement of strict compliance with the word limits, each component has a word count tolerance of plus 10%.
