Students are expected to have read the CSM prior to coming to class and may be called upon to discuss articles that they have read. Also, material discussed in class will appear on the examinations. First, identify the decision problem or dilemma faced and a specific decision maker who must resolve the dilemma. Finally, assess how well the alternatives you proposed meet these objectives and select the best alternative. You will be graded not on the alternative you select, but on how well you complete these tasks.
Case briefs are due at the beginning of the class session in which the case is discussed.
There will be no exceptions to this rule. Two briefs must be submitted in order to pass the course. The higher of the two grades will count. Participation is an important part of this course, and as such is required of all students. Participation grades will include attendance, participation in news discussions, participation in cases, and participation in the on-line discussion group.
