Assignments

Course assignments, readings and case studies have been carefully chosen to bring the real world into class discussion while also illustrating fundamental concepts.  You are responsible for completing the weekly readings prior to class and posting your assignments to the class website. You will find a listing of readings within the course syllabus and posted to the class website under the SCHEDULE menu item.  In addition to completing the reading assignments, you are also responsible for posting assignment deliverables to the class website on-time.  To facilitate preparation and active participation in class you are required to summarize and discuss one key point you took from each assigned reading.  Post a few sentences of thoughtful analysis about one key point you took from each assigned reading identified for each reading of each unit found on this website under READINGS & CASE STUDY QUESTIONS by the Saturday just prior to first day of classes.
