Swipe File

Most professionals maintain swipe files as ticklers for those days when the creativity just isn’t flowing. Each of you will be responsible for a swipe file this semester, which will contain at least 10 items. Students will keep a collection of “neat” ideas, layouts, headlines, etc., that they may want to “take off from” some day. Make sure that your criteria for inclusion is more than, “I thought it was cool,” or, “Gee, isn’t this neat.” You should select them because you see their value as public relations tools.
You will turn in a document (in Rich Text Format) that lists each item and is accompanied by an explanation of where it originated and why you chose to include it in your file (this might include an example of how you might use it in the future). For the items that can be linked to the Web, please provide the Web address. For others such as a hard copy brochure, you may scan the brochure or take a photo of it and send it as an attachment. If you send any files as attachments, please make sure you name the attachment appropriately to match the corresponding item in the list you provide. If you have any questions, as always, do not hesitate to ask.

Examples of items to include in your swipe file:
 press release
 billboard
 event
 novelty give-away
 brochure
 flyer
 interview
 photos
 video
 campaign
 promotion
 sponsorship
 direct-mail piece
 advertisement

This assessment task provides you the opportunity to gain knowledge of the nature and methods for conducting teacher research, how research can improve teaching and learning, and how research is a part of teachers’ everyday work. This assessment task provides you with the opportunity to document, in Harvard format, and organize the literature that you read in the form of a matrix. The matrix provides you with a mental map of what you are reading and what the studies share in common. A literature matrix should be developed utilising ten sources of research. This may include research papers, journal articles, book chapters, and/or conference papers. You will make sense of the literature by determining the common categories, themes, or issues found across the literature.

Business strategy refers to the competitive strategy of a business unit—that is, how it will compete.]

situation analysis

Natalia Gregory has a degree in chemistry and is a qualified naturopath. She has inherited a substantial amount of money and intends to create a herbal based range of creams to alleviate muscle pain, especially after sport. These creams have a pleasant flower smell and may appeal especially to woman; she is also considering providing a more masculine smell for men. These will be sold to pharmacies and gift shops nationally.

You need to cover the following areas:

Size of the total industry (number of competitors, size, location, turnover, production, sales, employment)
Factors of the uncontrollable environment that impact on the industry
b) Major competitors (market shares, importers, local production, and position of company in comparison to competitors)

c) Trends in the industry (government policy, technological developments, major price points)

d) Consumer behaviour trends (trends in purchasing/trends in behaviour patterns, changes in preferences, trends in distribution)

f) Target markets (industrial/consumer, size, composition, characteristics, how can the market be segmented? What are the segmentation variables?)- Try to quantify the size of your target market, ABS quick stats will be useful here and we will explore this during the lectures, tutorials and the workshop.

e) Other factors that impact on the industry.

Your tutor will judge you on:

a) The extent and quality of your research – the quantity, variety and quality of sources used (e.g. ABS, government websites, newspaper articles, magazine articles, reports from consultant groups like KPMG, PWC, government reports, industry lobby groups, data bases like MINT). Generic links will be provided on Moodle but you will have to undertake your own online research as well. You also will be given instructions on how to use the MINT database. Using Wikipedia or the company’s website as the major source of information is not considered appropriate for University study.

b) Use of appropriate reference conventions (A link to how to reference properly will be provided on Moodle).
