Review and Reflection Report: Understanding How BI is Applied in Real Life

Assignment Requirements

The Review & Reflection Report is an individual assignment. For this assignment, students are required to choose one of these reports from a curated list (see Appendix B), and then to write down their reflection on the report. This will include summarizing the main points of the report, critiquing the report, and commenting on how the recommendations within each report might be applied in the local context. The purpose of this assignment is to allow students to understand how BI have been applied in the past, and to be able to link theories covered in the lectures to real-life applications. 

The minimum word requirement for the Review and Reflection Report is 1400 words. Students may follow the guidelines below in writing up the report:

(a) Short summary of the report (approximately 400 - 500 words)

(b) Critique of the proposals in the report, focusing on the relative strengths and weaknesses of the BI application(s) that are mentioned in the report, and also focusing on whether you think the proposed BI applications in the report can work in the local context, and why they would or would not work local context (approximately 600 – 700 words) 

(c) How the proposals can be applied to a local context (i.e., Singapore, students’ own workplace, etc), particularly focusing on potential changes that needs to be made so that the proposed BI applications can work locally (approximately 300 – 400 words)

(d) Any other potential BI application that might also work in nudging behaviours in the specific domain, but not mentioned in the UK BI Team report (optional) (approximately 100 – 200 words)

(e) Conclusion (approximately 50 – 100 words)
