Mixing it up: Cooking end-of-the-semester project for the introductory management class

Keywords: end-of-semester project, management functions, project management

Abstract: During this session, I will present an engaging and memorable end-of-semester project for my Management Skills class, called Mixing it up. This project requires students to prepare a dish with a given list of ingredients and a limited budget. Students are also tasked with a presentation on the dish that describes their journey as well as a discussion on problems encountered and lessons learned. I will not only provide the conference participants with the opportunity to hear about my project, but I will also encourage colleagues to provide feedback and share their own most memorable assignments.
