7. 7 How to Succeed in this class Expectations for yourself Many of the in-class activities are based on the expectation that you are prepared for class. I.E.: You have read the chapter, prepared your class assignments for submission, are ready to discuss your ideas, and have questions relating to the reading and assignments. There is a lot of terminology in this course. You are expected to learn most of that on your own and bring questions to class of what you do not understand. Pop quizzes will be provided almost weekly to ensure you are keeping up with the depth of reading needed.

8. How to Succeed in this class Expectations for yourself Albeit there is a lecture, I will not be covering everything in the text, rather we will hit some highlights, discuss questions you may have and conduct exercises related to the key themes. Thus, please prepare accordingly. Another function of this course is that you are expected to develop strong academic skills. Therefore, you are expected to follow proper referencing and use of quotations (to avoid plageurism) and give credit where credit is due. This not only builds good scholarly skills, it will serve you well when you are in business and tasked with conducting a major report, research, or business analysis. Properly quoting your sources adds credibility to your work. 8

9. 9 Teams/Study Group Please take 10 minutes to form a study team of 5 to 6 people. Determine a “name” for your team One member from the team should record a list of all of the team members names (last name, first name) and submit the list along with the “Team Name” to the instructor by end of class today (Obtain Team Form Handout from instructor).

10. 10 Take a short Break! Coming up briefly - Chapter 1 Next week you will break into your teams during the seminar moments and during in-class exercises. Thus, it is best that you sit with your team mates. All students are expected to hand in the first assignment. Thereafter, students will be randomly selected to hand in their exercises. You must be present during class to submit your exercise (unless you have given advance notice (agreed to by instructor for a pre-planned family event) or have provided doctor’s note for a documented illness). Please come prepared to each class with proper referencing.
