Linking theory to practice
◻ The integration of theory and practice is very
important in an educational system it provides the
knowledge and expertise required to develop a
professional skills and better understanding of real
world problems in the future.
THEORY AND PRACTICE
◻ Theory is a hypothesis which, when tested
repeatedly & proven, transforms into theory.
◻ Practice is an application or a realization of a
theory.

Example:
one may build up, by hypothesis, a recipe for, e.g. a shampoo
assuming that it is composed of 5 ingredients with each
ingredient performing a particular function. First, the 5
ingredients are tested separately & combined together. When
the 1st sample is made, then a theory is born.
RELEVANCE OF LINKING
THEORY

◻ Case study is recommended as one way to link


theory to practice as this method can help to
present students with some aspect of real-life
scenarios whereby they can apply and integrate
knowledge, skills, theories and experience.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
ANALYSIS CRITICAL AND
ANALYSIS
◻ Analysis : Any detail ◻ Critical analysis : A
and thorough subjective writing
examination which because it expresses
allows anyone to the writers opinion
evaluate the data or or evaluation of a
information by text.
breaking it into it's
more basic parts for
better understanding
of the subject under
examination.
Your task
DESIGN FOR CHANGE FOR CASE STUDY
COMPANY
◻Following review of the Group Diagnosis Report, you
have been commissioned by the CEO to progress the
independent analysis and develop a practicable, creative
and strategic design for organisational change at the
Case Study organisation (see separate Case Study file
on GCU Learn) with sensitivity to Business Ethics and
CSR. Your design for change should take into account
and exploit new ideas and pertinent thinking captured in
the relevant bodies of change related theory and draw
on good innovative practices in other countries across
