SSESSMENT TASK 3: ORAL PRESENTATION (NARRATED POWERPOINT)

ASSESSMENT TASK 3: DESCRIPTION

The purpose of this assessment is to give you the opportunity to apply persuasive communication techniques to create change in your own workplace. Every workplace has problems or issues, from poor rostering, to inadequate planning for staff education, to inadequate equipment for clinical procedures, to inadequate staff- to-patient ratios and many more problems. Your task for this assessment is to clarify an issue or problem in your workplace and present a strategy to create change, thereby creating better outcomes for the patients, staff and organisation.

For this assessment task, you are required to

· select an issue or problem relevant to your workplace or your role, 


· devise a strategy to address the issue or problem and create change in your workplace, and 


· draw upon the persuasive communication techniques and theories we have covered in this subject to 
present your strategy for creating change so as to convince the target audience to implement this strategy in the workplace. 
There are two parts to this assessment task, and both must be completed.

(I work in aged care facility where we are still using paper based medication management system, please select this as issue, put argument why its problem in work place with evidence, then put strategy as change in place would be electronic medication management, how would I persuade my audience about it)


PART 1: Using Microsoft PowerPoint, produce a narrated PowerPoint presentation demonstrating your use of persuasive language and techniques to present the workplace issue/problem and your strategy to create change in the workplace. The target audience for this presentation are the decision makers in your workplace that can support you and the implementation of your strategy for creating change. 
Students are responsible for checking that their narration has been correctly recorded prior to uploading the presentation. Submissions that do not include working narration will be marked as submitted. Please do not upload PDF versions, as the recording will not work. The format of this submission must be Microsoft PowerPoint. For instructions on preparing a narrated PowerPoint, consider viewing this instructional video. You are expected to include contemporary literature to support your presentation and you must cite all sources you use in the preparation of this presentation, including images, data and content, using accurate 


APA 7th edition referencing style and format. A reference list should be on the last page/s of the PowerPoint slides, but you should cite any references in your narration as you speak.

PART 2: Submit a short-written piece (not to exceed 500 words) that outlines any practical and communication considerations you noted in order to prepare your presentation.

These considerations should include:

• the audience profile (cultural diversity or workplace culture considerations, membership, rank or position), 


• physical preparations (room, equipment, self), and 


• any anticipated barriers or obstacles to your proposal from the audience and how you would address 
identified barriers or obstacles if they arose. 
You are expected to utilise credible literature to support your ideas. This short written paper does not need to be in academic essay format so it does not require an introduction or conclusion. You may use first person. Correct APA (7th ed.) should be used throughout. 
For guidance on standards for assessment preparation, including referencing, please see Assessment Preparation Guidelines.
