CASE DISCUSSIONS AND GROUP WORK
Students are expected to be fully engaged in the entire learning process. This means that students need to prepare the assigned readings of the cases prior to each class and come to class prepared to participate in discussions and/or group work to enhance the learning of the individual and the class. Students will find the relative material for each case on the website.
Rules of case discussions
With case discussions, each student should demonstrate:
• The ability to set the parameters for the problem (key concepts from the case).
• Ample knowledge regarding the subject of the case (understanding of material, good response to the observations of others).
• The ability to connect the case to other course concepts.
• The ability to involve others in the discussion.
Rules of group project work:
• Pick your own groups (each group consists of max. 3 participants: if you have trouble getting picked, I will help)
• All group work will be self policed (except in extreme circumstances!).
• There will be one grade per group, no matter how the work load is distributed among the group members.
Before class discussion, groups should send a “PPT presentation (max. 25 slides)” to the instructor.
OTHER LEARNING SOURCES
Other material will be available on the course website.
ATTENDANCE
Attendance in class is very important. Students who miss more than 6 hours will be considered non-attending.
