Write a 1,000-word-limit essay to discuss and examine how your chosen Trend relates to your chosen Topic at your Workplace1
The changing nature of work is a key trend in organizational psychology. Every year, the
Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP) lists the SIOP Top 10 Workplace
Trends: https://www.siop.org/Business-Resources/Top-10-Work-Trends
1. Choose ONE of the following trend:
• Employer’s Role in Employees’ Mental Health
• Managing the transition into post-pandemic work
2. Choose ONE of the following topic:
• Job analysis
• Employee Recruitment, Selection, and Placement
• Assessing and selecting employees
• Evaluating employee performance
3. Write a 1,000-word-limit essay to discuss and examine how your chosen Trend relates to
your chosen Topic at your Workplace1.
(90 marks)
Additional notes/guidance/instructions:
• To do well, you need to integrate all three components: Trend + Topic + Workplace
E.g., How does [Trend] relate to [Topic] at your [Workplace]?
o In more detail: How does [the trend of Managing the transition into post-pandemic work] relate to [Assessing and selecting employees] at your
[marketing agency]?
• To answer this question, you will have to review information from your textbook on your chosen topic: a) Job analysis (Chapter 3), b) Employee Recruitment, Selection, and Placement (Chapter 4), c) Assessing and selecting employees (Chapter 5), d) Evaluating employee performance (Chapter 6).
• However, this will not be sufficient as the information in the textbook is limited and also unlikely to touch on this exact subject matter. You are required to do additional research and cite at least FIVE journal articles or book chapters of published books (excluding the textbook) for this question.
• Reading widely and beyond the textbook will add depth to your essay, and references to relevant research studies and examples will attract more marks. There is an abundance of credible resources that you can access from the library and Library e-Resources. Do note that internet references such as Wikipedia, SimplyPyschology.org, and online student papers are not counted as credible resources.
• You will need to cite all sources and provide complete references in APA 7 style.
• When planning and writing the essay, do remember that an analytical argument and critical evaluation will gain more marks than a descriptive essay.
Dear PSY201 T01 students,
I like to share with you some guidelines for TMA answers:
Good answers cover all the relevant points in a systematic and cogent manner. It would be presented very well, showing good knowledge of the subject matter.
Average answers cover some of the important areas but would not be very well presented. They may tend to be very factual and to the point.
Poor answers have some aspects of the answer missing or very poorly presented.
Answers that are irrelevant or badly presented without any indication of an understanding of the basic concepts will not pass.
You can refer to the marking guide in your TMA instructions for more details.
Some tips for TMAs
Think through the structure of the essay, start with the end in mind
The flow of the essay—is it coherent, logical, systematic
The number of paragraphs—not too many, not too few
The length of paragraphs—not too many ideas in one paragraph
Are all issues covered?
Does the conclusion logically draw in the arguments as discussed in the main body of the essay?
Do submit on time or earlier if possible
Double Spacing, computer typed
Keep to Word Limit. Please put in your word count at the end of your essay.
List your references with proper in-text citations
Make sure your have at least 5 references from journal articles or book chapters, excluding your textbook.
All in all, you need to demonstrate your understanding of the question, explain the relevant concepts/theories/arguments and apply it in your answer.
