Organizational Behaviour

Create a Learning Journal, a place where you collect your thoughts and provide your reflections on topics related to Organizational Behavior. The Learning Journal should contain:
    Answer the questions at the end of the page.
    Each answer should be 100-250 words.
    Clearly identify which questions you are answering by module and topic. (TIP: Copy and paste the questions you are answering.)
    If you use outside sources beyond the ones mentioned in the journal prompts, or if you use direct quotations from the prompts, you will need to cite the sources using APA format.
    Just as in the Final Project for this course, if you mention a current or previous employer or co-worker/manager in your journal, please change the name(s).
    Additional notes or reflections (optional)
Unlike other assignments you may have had in other college courses, this journal can be informally written. It is perfectly acceptable, even encouraged, to say “I” or “we” in this assignment. Parts of the journal may even be hand-written or drawn (flow charts, mind maps, etc.); if you choose to do this for parts of your journal, you can use photographs of handwritten material.

Action Research

Completed Body of the Action Research Proposal

Appendixes

IMPORTANT:
(In the propose action section, you will describe and discuss three possible solutions (actions you might take) to the problem or issue you have selected for the focus of your AR. Your solutions should be based on the literature and original thoughts regarding possible actions or solutions. The solutions you present must be solutions that, from all appearances, could be used in the type of site where you are conducting your research. For example, you might find that a school in California tried a strategy related to your problem or issue. You believe the solution used in California could be used in your setting, so you include it in your proposal as a possible solution or strategy to implement. You will evaluate each possible solution in light of your work setting and fit with your AR question.

What if through all of your research you dont find solutions that you feel will work perfectly in your current situation? You are also free to devise strategies that have not been tried elsewhere.)

If you are willing to take this writing job, I will send you the research question and other information I already have. Thank you.
