File docx 159KB

Organizational Behavior survey courses can be a vocabulary heavy course where students become lost in memorization rather than application.

Student groups then discuss and identify the best examples to be discussed as a larger class. This engagement enabled students to use the vocabulary during experiential learning activities.
