Project Based Learning, Scaffolding, course synthesis

Students often struggle to understand the interconnected nature of the organization and how strategy becomes institutionalized through policies, structure and culture. Success in developing this organizational perspective has been achieved through the blending of project-based learning and scaffolding assignments. This workshop provides tools to develop a multi-stage student project which builds upon each prior deliverable to encourage course synthesis. Facilitator will share thoughts for designing a multi-stage project, offer rubrics for quick grading, and best practices – in both online and onground classrooms. Time will be allotted for session participants to design a multi-stage project for their own course.
