Note: The summary should focus on the content and primary learning from the paper or case in question. One-page summaries are preferred; but in no circumstances should the summary exceed two pages. Please use a 12-point font and normal margins. LEARNING METHOD The case method and other interactive methods are used throughout the subject.

All class members are expected to have read each case and reflected upon the assigned questions, whether or not their team has been assigned the case. PRESENTATIONS
In some sessions, syndicates may be randomly assigned to make presentations of their case analysis to the entire class at the time of case is discussed. Therefore, all syndicates should make appropriate preparations. The audience for the case presentations is the other members of the class. Please address your talk to them. The syndicates may make the presentation as a team, or assign a spokesperson for each case. In any case, syndicates should ensure that all team members have any equal opportunity to participate in the presentations.

CLASS PARTICIPATION Active participation is expected throughout the entire class and each student should make thoughtful contributions to the.

Criteria that are useful in measuring effective class participation include: 1. Is the participant a good listener? 2. Are the points that are made relevant to the? Are they linked to the comments of others? 3. Do comments show evidence of incorporating the concepts from readings into the analysis of the case? 4.
