Course Description

This course covers the fundamental enablers required to successfully undertake digital transformation. You will learn how to develop an organisational culture and teams that are ready to embrace and drive change, and the mindsets required. You will review and assess the digital capabilities and readiness for change in the context of digital transformation and understand how as a leader you can use these to make informed decisions. You will be equipped to explore different types of digital transformation enablers, including enabling technologies, and transform these into insights, personalised experiences, more efficient processes and innovative products through the application of emerging technologies. Key theories and frameworks covered include change theory, organisational culture, enabling technologies, technology strategy, etc.


Objectives/Learning Outcomes/Capability Development

Overview of Learning Activities

This course uses highly structured learning activities to guide your learning process and prepare you for your assessments. The activities are a combination of individual, peer-supported and facilitator-guided activities, and where possible project-led, with opportunities for feedback throughout.

Authentic and industry-relevant learning is critical to this course and you will be encouraged to critically compare and contrast what is happening in your context and in industry, and to use your insights.

Social learning is another important component and you are expected to participate in class and group activities, share drafts of work and resources and give and receive peer feedback. You will be expected to work efficiently and effectively with others to achieve outcomes greater than those that you might have achieved alone. 

The learning activities enable you to understand course learning resources and apply that learning to improve your own practice, for example by producing real-world artefacts and engaging in scenarios and case studies.


Overview of Learning Resources

Each learning activity contains the core resources, such as videos, podcasts, readings, templates, articles, industry tools and/or communities that you need to complete that activity, or links to those resources. 

 

Additional learning resources designed into the course will be clearly marked as supplemental. If your course teaching team finds additional resources during course delivery which they think can support or be of interest to the class cohort, these will be made available as required during the teaching period. 

 

In your class environment, besides your learning activities you will also find: 

  • All assessment briefs 
  • A course information page with a study schedule 
  • Various communication tools to facilitate collaboration with your peers and facilitators, and to share information 

Learning Resources are also available online through RMIT Library databases and other facilities. Study Support Hubs are open to students for drop-in support and online help is available through self-paced tutorials or the online chat service, Ask the  Library. Find more information on Library resources and services at: http://www.rmit.edu.au/library.
