Coursework 2 - An essay/literature review on Management Learning and Education
The objective of this coursework is for you to engage with the current debate on the purpose of Management Education and Learning and reflect on how it can/should support your development as a Management student and future practitioner. To do so, we ask you to undertake a very short literature review on the topic to critically assess the argument of a key text: Grey, C. (2002) What are business schools for? On silence and voice in management education. Journal of Management Education, 26(5): 496-511
For this assignment, you need to undertake the following tasks:
1. Read the indicated article, and briefly summarise it;
2. Choose one other academic journal paper [from the module or from your wider
readings] that discusses the notion of Management Education and Learning, what it is or should be, its purpose and/or its criticisms. Critically compare and contrast its ideas with those of Grey (2002);
3. Finish your review with a short critical reflection of what you have learnt from
doing this review exercise & what your recommendation would be with regards to the purpose of Management Education and Learning and how it can/should support your development as a Management student and future practitioner, and/or the wider business school context.
To help you critically analyse the Grey paper and the other paper that you choose in-depth within the word count for this assignment, the minimum of references that you need for this assignment is 2 including the indicated text/article. However, we would recommend that you use a couple of other references to substantiate some of your analysis and your critical thinking. You must use theHarvard referencing stylewhen referring to sources in your work.
The word count for this assignment is 1,500 words maximum including your reference list.
