What to include when you submit your portfolio
Your portfolio tasks should be entered into Mahara. There is a Zoom guide to show you how to navigate Mahara. Try to complete the portfolio each week. You will find this keeps you up to date. While you compile the portfolio tasks, please include the week and the task you are completing.
Week 7, Task 2.
Read The Complete Guide to Business Analysis, Chapter 10 (Davenport, 2013). Davenport found interesting results from interviews and significant gaps in decision making. Consider Davenport’s findings and analyse them against the health service you work for. Explore potential problems health services may have in linking data analysis to decision making and business planning. How would this app assist to reduce risk?
The portfolio requires you to answer questions, complete tasks and activities. You will see portfolio tasks introduced throughout the reading material on Moodle. A summary of tasks is listed at the end of each week, after the recommended reading section.
Each week the word count for the portfolio is 500 words with a variation of +/- 10%. For example, if you have three portfolio tasks for the week, you would need to divide the words accordingly and the total word count for all three combined tasks should equal 500 (+/- 10%) words. For example – you may decide to divide the word count like this:
Task 1 – 200 words
Task 2 – 200 words
Task 3 – 100 words
Total words = 500 words
A marking guide is used to assess your knowledge and application of portfolio tasks. You are expected to use references to show a wide breadth of reading in regard to the task requirements.
You are required to use Australian Psychological Association referencing abridged guide term 2 2018
The word count is considered from the first word of the introduction to the last word of the conclusion. It excludes the cover page, abstract, contents page and reference list. It includes in-text references and direct quotations.

2 Presentation and Written Assessment
Assessment 1. Written assessment and presentation
This assessment relates to learning objectives 1, 2, 3 & 4. These include:
- Explore historical and current use of different types of health data
- Analyse how health care data is used to establish risk and address issues of compliance
- Examine the use of benchmarking tools and quality frameworks in risk management
- Develop a framework of interventions to minimise risk and to meet regulatory compliance.
Written assessment and presentation
This assignment requires you to write a report of up to 2,000 words (+/- 10%) and to complete a presentation. The presentation should be recorded and uploaded to you tube, with the link included with your submission.
Due date: 1st May 2019.
Format: report
Word count: 2,000 words (+/- 10%).
Weighting: 40%
Scenario
You are managing a cognitive unit of a regional hospital. You are concerned that the numbers of falls and near miss falls in patients is increasing. The current data is collected by hand and then entered into a Microsoft Excel spread sheet. It shows that falls for the unit have increased by 20% over the last month. You find that the current way of collecting data does not provide many answers to explain the increase in falls.
For this assignment you are required to create a report to the hospital board recommending a system of improving data management in the hospital. Within this report you should:
- Describe the evolution of technology used in data management
- Provide an analysis of the current data management process and its strengths and shortcomings
- Contrast the current data management processes with improvements possible for the organisation
- Justify how your recommendations will specifically identify risk and compliance
- Identify how your recommendations will change health outcomes for those at risk of falls
- Demonstrating how you will compare data once the new management system is in place
Presentation
You are required to create a five minute presentation to the management committee where you ‘show’ the committee a better way to collect and to analyse data. The presentation should differ from your written report, in that it should present suggestions for a better way of managing data, by providing examples and evidence to support your recommendations.
Managers, your assignment and your presentation should be focused on ‘systems’ rather than falls management as such. You should aim to analyse how your recommendations in data management will improve health outcomes in the healthcare sector. The URL for the presentation should be submitted with your report.
Your report may include headings, diagrams, graphs and pictures. You should actively draw from the literature to support and to guide your report.
The word count is considered from the first word of the introduction to the last word of the conclusion. It excludes the cover page, abstract, contents page and reference list. It includes in-text references and direct quotations.
You are advised to refer to the rubric prior to writing the assessment

As a CQUniversity student you are expected to act honestly in all aspects of your academic work.
Any assessable work undertaken or submitted for review or assessment must be your own work. Assessable work is any type of work you do to meet the assessment requirements in the unit, including draft work submitted for review and feedback and final work to be assessed.
When you use the ideas, words or data of others in your assessment, you must thoroughly and clearly acknowledge the source of this information by using the correct referencing style for your unit. Using others’ work without proper acknowledgement may be considered a form of intellectual dishonesty.
Participating honestly, respectfully, responsibly, and fairly in your university study ensures the CQUniversity qualification you earn will be valued as a true indication of your individual academic achievement and will continue to receive the respect and recognition it deserves.
As a student, you are responsible for reading and following CQUniversity’s policies, including the Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. This policy sets out CQUniversity’s expectations of you to act with integrity, examples of academic integrity breaches to avoid, the processes used to address alleged breaches of academic integrity, and potential penalties.
What is a breach of academic integrity?
A breach of academic integrity includes but is not limited to plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, cheating, contract cheating, and academic misconduct. The Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure defines what these terms mean and gives examples.
Why is academic integrity important?
A breach of academic integrity may result in one or more penalties, including suspension or even expulsion from the University. It can also have negative implications for student visas and future enrolment at CQUniversity or elsewhere. Students who engage in contract cheating also risk being blackmailed by contract cheating services.
Where can I get assistance?
For academic advice and guidance, the Academic Learning Centre (ALC) can support you in becoming confident in completing assessments with integrity and of high standard.
