Assignment 1 & 2

Assignment 1 was ready for upload 'decades ago'. Remember I had prepared this with Mr Hubby's assistance when I was taking the module for the first time? I uploaded it and made certain I got a donotreply notification on the submission...ain't nobody got time to retake any module because an assignment submission didn't go through.

Assignment 2 was a bit confusing though. I didn't quite understand what was expected of me. The question was to assemble a HR toolkit. There were a couple of options on how to assemble this. I decided to use a power point presentation. The confusing part was, am I expected to assemble a HR toolkit on all the functions of strategic human resource management or just a couple? If it's on all the functions of SHRM, then the slides will be over a 100 and counting! That can't be it.

I sent an email to the Tutor about this. I desperately needed further clarification. But the emails just kept on going back and forth. I can tire for endless emails ehnn. I could have sworn he was being a bit evasive while explaining...being extra careful not to give away the answer while trying to explain? But in all, it's either he was not explaining it clearly or I just simply do not understand. :-(
Have you ever been in this kind of situation? You're asking your Tutor for an explanation on an academic question, and he is just going round and round in circles, that you can literally feel your head spinning?

I'm at the verge of imploring another 'tombo tombo' mechanism here. If you don't understand what this means, please read my blog post on this here
 
I can almost hear you say, but this is not multiple choice answer question na? Serious theory!!! 
Kai! I'm just tired.

Children of God, I cannot come and kill myself abeg.


Till next week Sunday, God willing...

  1. Hehehehe, that dog is really tired, lol. I think you should use bullet points to ask him the question again:-) .if he doesn't come up clearly, you can go with the tombo tombo, it works for me, lol, yes, even when it's not multiple choice options.

    My boss usually says "is either you're a bad teacher or she's not a good student"

    Either way, sha write something give them :-)

      My dear, I have used bullet points o. It's just remaining for me to go pictorial...using pictures to drive home my question. :-)

    2. I think it's safe to err on the side of caution and cover as many functions of SHRM as possible in ur presentation...

    3. Hmmm...the slides will be endless...each SHRM function has a tree, each tree has a branch, each branch has a twig, and every twig has got several leaves!
