Course requirements

The students will be assigned readings from the textbook as well as reading material
and they will be expected to come to class prepared and also take part in class room
deliberations. Attendance is compulsory. In my experience, attendance is highly
correlated with the absorption of academic materials.
Pedagogy
The pedagogy to be followed will be completely based on the students follow up. It will
be mix of case based lecture, class discussion, and students presentation. Majority of
the learning will happen in the classroom by creating a virtual organization. Very heavy
importance will be given for students preparation for the sessions. Most of the sessions
will be based on concepts and a related case, which has to be first tried / discussed by
the students as a group on their own. Then Facilitators effort will be focused in
providing a learning environment for the student rather than spoon feeding, the student.
In addition to this students will be divided into groups for doing group exercises, case
presentations, role plays etc., In group exercises, evaluation will be done on group wise
as well as individual wise.
