Assessment Instructions

A personal experience-based essay is where you make use of academic concepts and analysis and apply it to your own experience. It still follows academic conventions, for instance, it is structured with an introductory paragraph, middle, and a well-defined conclusion and it should have a logical series of paragraphs. This type of approach is powerful because it allows you to both appreciate the value of theory and also to consider how it can be useful in application. The introductory paragraph must include the objective of the essay, and the conclusion paragraph must highlight the important points if learning that you have achieved in completing this assessment task. You need to critically reflect on your own thoughts, feelings and actions, then integrate these reflections with the theoretical concepts. This essay can be written in both the first and third person.

Further guidance:

• This paper requires a significant amount of analysis and personal reflection. This means that you should break down each theory of motivation into its constituent parts and reflect on how relevant the factors within the motivation theory or model were relevant to you and your situation.

• You should include a minimum of 10 references. At least 6 of these should be academic journals. The rest can be textbooks and appropriate websites. Examples of relevant journals are the Journal of Applied Psychology (American Psychological Association), Journal of Occupational and Employment Psychology (British Psychological Society), or the Journal of Business and Psychology (Springer).

• It is recommended that you use the structure outlined above and adopt sub-headings based on each bullet point.

You should aim to quote six (6) quality academic references in a useful way as part of this work.
