Assignment task: HR Technology beyond Social Media
Case Assignment:
Select one of the two following options for this Module Case assignment.
Option 1: Prepare a slide presentation with recorded narration (10-12 slides not including title and reference slides) for your supervisor and team members. Your presentation should provide an evaluation showing how introducing a new HRIS can benefit an organization with 250 employees that currently has an automated recordkeeping system. Explain why a new system is better than the current one by comparing and contrasting a new system with the current HRIS application. Make a final recommendation for which HRIS to purchase or retain and explain why you selected this option. (You may need to meet with your current HRM to learn about the current system in use.)
Option 2: Prepare a slide presentation with recorded narration for your supervisor and team members. The presentation must not contain less than 10 slides-not including title and reference slides--but the presentation can contain significantly more than 10 slides, if needed. Your presentation should provide an overview of three HRIS systems showing how an HRIS can benefit an organization with 250 employees that currently does not have an automated record-keeping system. Make a final recommendation to your supervisor and team members for which HRIS option should be purchased and explain your selection rationale.
Assignment Expectations:
Demonstrate critical-thinking and analysis of the issue.
Recommend 3 sources for additional information that you include at the end of your presentation (do not use materials in this course as your additional information). At least one of your three references about a concept in this assignment topic should come from a peer-reviewed academic journal found in the Trident Online Library.
Cite sources of information utilized to prepare your assignment.
Proofread your work and make sure it is as professional-appearing as possible.
Remember that people today do not want to watch a PowerPoint presentation with slides that are full of words. They want to see no more than 5 words and a picture on every slide. Additional words should be on the note pages. A best practice is to insert one bullet point on each slide. If you want multiple, very short bullet points on one slide, transition each bullet point in one at a time. In addition, the pictures should be real people, not clip art; pictures of employees of the company are preferable.
[Tip: Type out the narration for each slide on the notes pages and you can read it as your recording. Save each recording as the slide number, such as Slide 3, etc.]
Once completed, upload your submission to the appropriate drop box by the due date and time.
