Contents and Estimated Time for Pre- and Post- Learning (Preparation and Review)
This seminar is an advanced-level one for business students. In this seminar, students will apply the concepts, knowledge, andtheories they learned in Research Seminars I and II. They need to present their research topics and review the class lectures at home. This requires substantial time to study at home after each session. I suggest students read for at least two hours before and after each session. In total, the students need to spend 60 hours studying outside the class.
Contents of Active Learning
Active learning tools include lectures, presentations, and assignments. The instructor will provide the necessary reading materials and PowerPoint slides to students in the classroom. Students must submit all assignments on time and produce a final paper at the end of the seminar.
Grading Criteria and Methods
