There are also tutorials where the students will raise issues of concern regarding the evolution of the group assignment.

The teaching strategy is to present a critical overview of conceptual, empirical and case material with an emphasis on theories and findings that are based on research evidence and coherent argument. The purpose of this assignment is to allow the student to extend and reinforce his or her understanding of the conceptual material of the course, and to contribute to the student development in terms of scholarly inquiry, disciplinary knowledge, analytic and critical thinking, independent and reflective learning, and information literacy, collaborative work, and effective communication.

Students must also expect to work effectively in a single team and to prepare formal written assignments in a clear and logical manner. Thus, this course aims not only to develop the student’s critical understanding of a range of substantive business concepts but also to encourage the student to present their analyses in a logical and convincing manner and to clearly show how their conclusions are based on evidence acquired through research.
