I do not usually collect this. Generally, I will combine textbook theory with real-life case studies. Logistically, you probable need to do a case and a textbook chapter each weekend in addition to the weekly assignments. The blue-book exam is usually a case or strategic study where you can demonstrate your knowledge, analysis capabilities, and skill as a strategic manager. It may be short and read during the exam or much longer, in which case it is handed out in advance of the exam.
Exams are often closed book.
Not is this class. Don't even bring them into class. We will use three books. The first is the textbook and the second book contains real cases. All are soft cover and available at the bookstore.
