The Patchwork Text and Business Education: rethinking the importance of personal reflection and co-operative cultures

This paper describes and evaluates the introduction of the Patchwork Text assignment in the assessment of a Masters-level course on ‘Intercultural Management’, taught to students of various nationalities and linguistic/cultural background as part of the MA International Business and the MA Business and Management at Anglia Polytechnic University. It begins by addressing the question of whether the Patchwork Text assessment process can contribute to effective management education and concludes that the Patchwork Text has relevance in attempts to foster creative individuality and ‘feminine’ qualities of mutual nurturing and sharing.
