Students should reflect on their own learning experiences outside of the theoretical space and demonstrate their understanding of event policies, strategy and the use of events to drive either corporate or community objectives. Instructions: You are to choose an event that you have attended and write a reflective journal demonstrating your understanding of content covered in the course. You will be assessed on your critical thinking skills, your understanding of key policy and strategy principles and how they relate to the event industry. The best way to accomplish this task is to consider the following questions in relation to a specific event that you have attended or have knowledge of: 1. Did the event drive social or economic development for the event host or key supporters? 2. Who benefited from the event? 3. Was there a return on investment? How was this measured? 4. Why did the Government or Corporate support this event? 5. Were there negative impacts? How were these mitigated? 6. Is there an example of a competing event (public or private) that performed better on the delivery of community/corporate objectives?
