Assessment 2 Group Presentation

Overview

For this task, you will work in a group of 4 students to present your key work and findings as part of your Assessment 3 Group report. The presentation and report will highlight and discuss a key transport and logistics issue.

This assessment will support you in work towards your larger group report and gain early feedback regarding your research and proposed solutions into logistics and transport issues.

This assessment links to Assessment 3: Group report (Note: you are expected to complete both a presentation and report on the same case company/case study).

This assessment relates to the following learning outcomes:

Critically reflect on transport regulation and structure, oversee operations and policies, and address challenges in the transport sector;
Critically review issues about the management of transport and e-transport to address simple, important, complex, and unpredictable problems;
Conceptually map and synthesise information from various sources to present a clear, coherent and independent exposition of knowledge in the field of transport and logistics management

Details

You are the manager of a transport company (Australian or International business) and you are required to write a research document on your company from the perspective of a 3rd party logistics service provider to present as a report. This assessment covers the group presentation component of the report.

In groups of four (4), identify the issues relevant to that company and develop a report that you would then give/present to managers/board members or other key stakeholders as relevant. These issues are likely to be related to the following as per our topics discussed in class:

Global transport issues (including modal choice)
Green transport and sustainability considerations
Risk management
Chain of responsibility
3rd party logistics
e-Transport management
Industrial relations
Workplace Health and Safety.

This assessment gives you an opportunity to:

Confirm the transport issue you are investigating
Begin working as a team to plan and delegate tasks and identify any issues when working as a team
Develop an action plan regarding tasks

Build a collection and summary review of research sources relevant to your report
Reflect on and discuss transport issues and develop some tentative strategies, and possible solutions towards these issues (and costings where relevant)
Gain feedback from your teacher/lecturer and your peers to further progress and improve your Group report.

Requirements

The presentation should run for approximately 10 minutes. Please ensure you do not exceed more than 2 minutes either side of your 10 minute allocation. (e.g. Presentation should be minimum 8 minutes and maximum 12 minutes).

Each person within the group is expected to present a section.

Your presentation should be supported with relevant visual supporting slides/media or props.

You should ask for questions and feedback at the end of the presentation, and allow up to 5 minutes for Q&A/class feedback.

As part of the presentation you should also outline where you are at so far in your report, what is left to undertake, where you are looking for specific feedback to assist you in progressing your report.
