This e-tivity is not the assignment itself. It helps you plan the content of the
report you are required to submit for assessment.
You have been given privileged access to one document and two audio recordings.
All parties have given their consent for you to see and use this information, which will
help you understand some of the issues that you could include in your report.
(1) Document: Job, performance and statistics information.doc
(2) Interviewer Training Audio File (55 seconds).
(3) Audio File of a "typical" performance appraisal for In-Branch Customer Services
Staff (2 minutes and 34 seconds).
Purpose To identify and elaborate on three key issues on performance appraisal.
Task
Identify 3 major issues that arise when you have listened to and read these
resources. In no more than 150 words explain why you have chosen these 3 issues.
Post your message to the discussion group by Friday 2nd March 2007.

your fellow participants’ posts, responding to their arguments.
