Each student must accept the responsibility for class preparation. This means studying the assigned readings and analyzing the assigned cases before the respective class meeting. To evaluate this process, two quizzes will be given in class throughout the five week period. Further, students are strongly advised o solve the suggested self-study problems each week on their own, and compare their solutions with suggested answers to obtain immediate feedback on their understanding of materials discussed in class.
Student participation in class discussion is also an important part of this course. It will be evaluated daily beginning Week two; and, it will reflect performance in such areas as responding to the instructors’ specifically- addressed questions, participating in focused class discussions, articulating with clarity difficult concepts in the assigned materials, and applying key incepts from the assignments to candidate’s work experience or current business events. The quality, rather than quantity, of responses will be the basis for assessing performance.
Students should also review their notes in the days immediately following the class session. Two quizzes and one final exam will be given during the term. The final exam has two components: in-class and take home. The in-class component consists of 20 multiple-choice questions and the take home component contains computation exercises that can relate to materials presented in lass, assignments and suggested self-study problems. All quizzes and exam will be open-book.
