Structure your discussion of these activities using hierarchies of activities. You are required to search for more relevant scholarly papers or business articles to support your discussion.Hints: (1) Think through the activities that support teaching and learning, for example, course enrolment, timetabling, lecture and tutorials, Wattle support, examination, and course grade release. (2) Understand the process of classifying activities into different categories by reading Krishnan (2006) (3) Collect relevant information by talking to relevant parties involved in the activities identified in (1).
