ENTREP 3020 - Corporate Entrepreneurship in Organisations

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2021

Established companies are progressively creating new business opportunities as an imperative for maintaining competitive advantage, retaining market share and continued success. Maturing technologies and aging product portfolios require businesses to create, develop, and sustain innovative new businesses. This course will explore how to innovate and apply entrepreneurship principles in the corporate setting. You will develop knowledge on navigating barriers to create, develop and scale innovative initiatives that do not typically fit within established systems, processes, and cultures.

    3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
    4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.

    Assessment Detail
    Group Presentation
    This presentation assignment requires students to work in a group and develop the entrepreneurial architecture required to establish an innovation hub within the organisation.

    Students will consider the structure, culture, and leadership required to support the innovation hub, and prepare a presentation to the executive team for approval to establish and resource the innovation hub within the organisation.


    Case Study
    For this individual case study assignment, students will research an organisation whose product(s) has reached market maturity and requires innovation to survive.

    Students will develop the process on which this innovation will take place, with consideration for the market, environment, resources, capability, established systems, and risks.

    The assignment will include a project plan, reflecting tasks, owners, and timeframes.


    Discussion Forum Queries and Responses
    Online forums are a good vehicle to help students engage in discussion of course materials before coming to class, to review material prior to an assignment, to reflect on workshop activities, or use of additional research undertaken to demonstrate synthesis, insights and application. Contributions to the discussion forums are a structured task, as follows:

    • Each student must post four initial questions about specified content from the course, articulating their thinking about the question. Example: What do you know already? What did you find confusing? If you had to answer a question immediately, how would you do so?
    • Thereafter all students respond a minimum of four times to each other’s initial posts to create conversation threads.

    Discussion Boards are linked to specific modules. Contribution is evaluated on preparedness and ongoing interaction during the opening and closing intensives. Limited contribution to the forum is defined as making no posts, fewer than stipulated interactions, or duplicating existing posts.


    Class Participation
    Student participation is an essential aspect of classroom learning and encompasses numerous ways in which you prepare for and conduct yourself in a classroom cohort. For example, equitable involvement in and responsible allocation of class tasks and activities, collaboration to achieve satisfactory completion of class exercises, and demonstration of knowledge gained from set readings/MyUni course resources/live and recorded lectures.

    Evaluation of participation is through preparation for set activities, collaborative and individual interaction with course content to inform class exercises, and via group activities during both the 2 x 3 day intensives.

    Submission

    All text based assignments must be submitted via MyUni:

    • Assignment Submission: Assignments should not be emailed to the instructor; they must be lodged via the MyUni Course site (unless specified to do both).
    • Cover Sheet: Please include in the assignment a completed 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide Assessment Cover Sheet (found in MyUni, under Modules) providing details of yourself and your team members (if applicable), your assignment, the course, date submitted, etc. as well as the declaration signed by you that this is your (your team’s) work. Note that the declaration on any electronically submitted assignment will be deemed to have the same authority as a signed declaration.
    • Backup Copy of Assignments: You are advised to keep a copy of your assignments in case the submitted copy goes missing. Please ensure that all assignment pages are numbered. If your assignment contains confidential information, you should discuss any concerns with the Course Lecturer prior to submission.
    • Assessment extensions request: An application for Assessment Extension should be made before the due date of the assignment to the Course Lecturer. Normally, extensions will only be granted for a maximum of two weeks from the original assignment submission date. Extensions will only be granted in cases of genuine medical, compassionate or extenuating circumstances. See sections 3 and 7a) i. in particular on assessment extensions in the Modified Arrangements for Coursework Assessment (MACA) Policy.
    • Failure to submit: Failure to submit an assignment on time or by the agreed extension deadline may result in penalties and may incur a fail grade. Note that a late penalty of 5% of the total available marks for that assessment item will be incurred each day an assignment is handed in late (Unless otherwise stated in 'Assessment Related Requirements' or 'Assessment Detail' above). Assignments handed in after 14 days from the due submission date will fail even if a 100% mark is granted for the work.
    • Resubmission: of an assignment after reworking it to obtain a better mark will not normally be accepted. Approval for resubmission will only be granted on medical or compassionate grounds.
    • Appealing a mark or grade: If you are dissatisfied with your mark or grade, you may request a review or re-mark. There must be academic or procedural reasons for your request, so you can’t simply request a re-mark because you are disappointed with your result. For more information on the process see Assessment Grievance: Appealing a mark or grade

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
