Respond to your peers' presentations in the Lesson 9.2 - Emerging Trends Executive Summary forum. I will evaluate your peer reviews and post your grades to the Lesson 10.1 - Feedback to Peers on Emerging Trends
Make sure your comments:
A good practice for offering feedback or comments is to pick one specific item you wish to address, make a quick note on paper about what you want to say, and then post your comment--keep it brief, and we'll all have time to read each other's remarks.
A substantive response to TWO of your peers' presentations. Reminder, the presentations are in Canvas Lesson 9.2 - Emerging Trends Executive Summary.
Due Tuesday (before end of classes) 11:59 pm (Eastern Time)
Check the Calendar in Canvas for specific time frames and due dates.
You will not submit anything to the Lesson 10.1 - Feedback to Peers on Emerging Trends assignment, I will review the peer reviews you provide in the Lesson 9.2 - Emerging Trends Executive Summary and post these grades to the Lesson 10.1 - Feedback to Peers on Emerging Trends assignment page in Canvas.
Since you should be focusing much of your attention on finishing your term project, I’ve made this week’s assignment fairly easy.
I’d like each of you to search in current digital or printed news for a location intelligence project you think represents what you have learned during the course. Post what you find along with source information (a link is fine) in Canvas in the Lesson 10.2 - Current Location Intelligence Project in the News forum.
For your example, provide a concise explanation of the content (2-3 sentences, tops). Please post a graphic from what you find, if one is available (and appropriate).
Due Tuesday 11:59 pm (Eastern Time).
You have quite a bit of flexibility in terms of the final product--your format and tone should match your individual case. The report can read like a white paper, an academic paper, or a consultant's report. However, as you're all likely concerned with some basic guidelines, please consider the following broad requirements (which can be amended with reason):
A Word document (.doc/.docx) or PDF (.pdf) submitted in Canvas to the Term Project: Final Project Report drop box which is in the Lesson 10: Term Project module.
Due Wednesday night 11:59 pm (Eastern Time) (last day of classes).
Please take some time to complete the SEEQ, Penn State's Student Educational Experience Questionnaire survey.
Feedback from students about their courses plays an important role in ensuring high-quality teaching and learning at Penn State. I hope that you will be able to find about 15 minutes to complete the SEEQ, our class evaluation survey. We rely upon your anonymous feedback to guide our continuing efforts to make this class worth the time and money you invest. Whether your feelings about the class are positive, negative, or mixed, please take a few minutes to let us know.
Note: The survey will close at 11:59 pm on the last day of class.
