Competence to develop:

• Recognize the fundamentals, origins and areas of influence of the

prospective as a multidiscipline. Basic elements in the identification of the
most influential variables and actors and the main challenges the
organization will face in the future.

• Design scenarios by using different prospective tools, in order to identify

the best strategies of the action plan that will allow the organization to
support itself over time.
Topics to develop:
Methods and tools to build a shared vision of the future: Design of scenarios.

Steps, the learning strategy stage to be developed:

Step 1: Select role

Step 2: Carry out the prospective and strategic Plan

Step 3: Contribute to the consolidation of the final work

Activities to develop

Step 1: Select a Role: Students will select one of the roles to develop their
duties as if the small group were a company and they had to deliver a product or
service.

Note: Who acted as secretary in phase 3 should send to this forum the
final document of the previous phase so that peers have access to the
table of classification and selection of strategies and can make the
relevant and coherent contributions for the realization of the final video
which will serve as the final evaluation.

Step 2: Prospective and strategic plan: It is built from the strategies (What to
do?) And the objective (What do we want to achieve?) Raised in the table of
classification and selection of strategies of phase three.

This action plan must contain the strategy - What to do?, the objective, What do
we want to achieve?

When raising that strategy, who? (Actors) will allow the achievement of the
objective and therefore of the strategy, activities and / or necessary actions - how
to do it or how can the objective and the strategy proposed be achieved? and
finally propose the follow-up plan (If it is going to be quarterly, semiannual and /
or annual) for each of the activities and / or actions planned, this must be done
from the year 20XX and until the year they selected to perform the bet scenario.

What is plagiarism?

Plagiarism is defined by the dictionary of the Royal Academy as

the action of "Copying in the substantial works of others, giving
them as their own"

Plagiarism is a serious fault: it is the equivalent, in the

academic field, to theft. A student who plagiarizes does not take
his/her education seriously, and does not respect the
Plagiarism policies
intellectual work of others.

There is no small plagiarism. If a student uses any portion of

another person's work, and does not document the source,
he/she is committing an act of plagiarism.

Penalties for plagiarizing in UNAD Virtual

Students are expected to know that plagiarism is not an

acceptable academic behavior.

The first time a student commits plagiarism in one of the

activities of the courses; he/she will get a grade of zero (0.0)
points in the task, activity or exam in question, and the
coordination of the program to which he/she belongs will be
informed of such transgression.

The second time a student commits plagiarism in one of the

activities of the courses; he/she will get a final grade of zero
(0.0) on that course. In addition, the coordination of the
program and the School, to which he belongs, will be informed
of the transgression.
