Prepare an Evaluative/ Reflective Report where your goal is to consider the relationship between theory and practice. That will include a self-reflective evaluation of your personal development on this unit, the experience of the preparation for the pitch presentation and your readiness for PR practice.

EVALUATIVE/REFLECTIVE REPORT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PR THEORY AND PRACTICE

“Prepare an Evaluative/ Reflective Report where your goal is to consider the relationship between theory and practice. That will include a
self-reflective evaluation of your personal development on this unit, the experience of the preparation for the pitch presentation and your readiness for PR practice.

This document is the final reflection of your university course and so you are being asked to reflect on the recent Agency Life E1 Big Pitch assignment and to contextualise this with your learning on the entire course, and against your feelings of readiness for professional PR

practice.

As individuals we don’t stop learning just because we have finished our university course, so you should now begin to reflect on how you intend to enhance your learning at university as you move into professional practice.

There is also a theoretical element to the assignment. You should by now be able to describe practical phenomena using theoretical concepts you have considered on your course.

Whilst theory is not necessarily discussed in a professional context, theory should now be evident to you in relation to practice.

Make sure therefore that you use your newfound theoretical language in this assignment so that your reflection is at a deeper level. You must certainly avoid being descriptive at this stage. Make sure you include at least 10 different references to theory.

A reflective framework such as the Gibbs model of reflective learning may be useful for this assignment.”

That is the brief for this assignment. It is very important that the structure of the essay follows the Gibbs model (EVALUATIVE/REFLECTIVE have uploaded a file that shows how it is).

The first part of this unit consisted in creating a social media campaign for an energy drink and then pitching it to the company that makes the enrgy drink. In order to do this we had to apply theories in a practical project.

This essay needs to reflect on this as well as what is explained in the part between “”. Very important to mention will be Anne Gregory’s theories of planning PR campaign, also the importance of research and insights before planning, the importance of understanding your audience and how the creative process works especially when you work in a group.

The previous project was done in a group so you can also mention group work and Belbin theories, just make sure your argument follows what is requested in the part in “”.

As for the personal development you can make it up as long as it sounds professional and mentiones theories.

Kind regards

How is your chosen issue a matter of security? How does Security Studies scholarship deepen our understanding of this issue and the implications that it presents? What kind of responses to this issue might we consider?

Security Studies

You need to identify a contemporary political practice, issue or controversy that concerns you. Using at least one of the approaches covered in the course, answer the following question:

“How is your chosen issue a matter of security? How does Security Studies scholarship deepen our understanding of this issue and the implications that it presents? What kind of responses to this issue might we consider?”

Requirements:

In order to get started, you will need to refine and develop the problem that you want to address. You could focus on a specific empirical case, such as Trident, the use of torture by liberal regimes or even a film (or a set of films).

You could draw on an idea or debate that we have covered in the course, and use this to analyse the political phenomena that interests you.

Further guidance for your essay

· The purpose of the assessment is for you to reflect upon and articulate a research interest in a substantive issue, which can provide you with the basis for further sustained work in the next semester.

· The issue that you choose could be a contemporary headline news issue, but it does not have to be.

· You should feel free to choose any issue that you care about and/or have a particular personal interest in. You may draw on data such as policy reports and political speeches; you may also draw on reputable journalistic sources in addition to academic works.

· The first part of the question asks you to outline why the particular issue is a matter of ‘security’.

In your response am looking for a well-argued and well-informed argument for how the issue can be thought of as a matter of security. Of course, through this course we will think about security in a number of different ways – some more traditional, some more radical. You can engage with any of these perspectives.

avoid flat-assertions or sweeping statements. You should also consult the scholarly literature in order to explain how you understand ‘security’. Here, you need to show an engagement with, an understanding of, and (for higher marks) a critical analysis and evaluation of, the theoretical and conceptual assumptions that underpin your understanding of security.

· In the second and third parts of the question, you are asked to consider how Security Studies scholarship can deepen our understanding of this issue and the implications that it presents, and to reflect on what responses to the issue might we consider based on Security Studies scholarship. As a guide this should take up about two-thirds of your presentation. In answering this question, you should explicitly draw on at least one of the theoretical approaches covered in this semester.

In order to build a strong argument, you may wish to contrast one theoretical approach (or specific scholars) with another in order to show how your issue can be interpreted differently and why you consider one position to be stronger than another. In this section you should be engaging with the academic literature from this course.

You should be able to use the perspectives in this course to advocate for, challenge or question certain responses to your issue. You may advocate certain policy options (such as the renewal or dismantling of trident), you may suggest the need to resist or transform something (like gendered or postcolonial language used in peacekeeping) or you may highlight certain dangers (like the use of the balance metaphor for liberty and security, or a certain practice of human security).
