In this session, we present a team-based class activity which aims to deepen comprehension of management concepts through application to a reality TV case study. To set the stage, we introduce the IDEAL framework, an andragogical tool for developing students’ written communication skills, and explain its role in the exercise, which participants will get to experience first-hand. To conclude, we’ll address possible concerns about using reality TV in the classroom, and discuss how to modify the activity for different topics and audiences. Participants are encouraged to contribute comments, feedback, and ideas for developing and personalizing the activity for their classroom.
