Évaluation
This course is conducted in a "seminar" style, meaning that classes will normally include a combination of instructor-led discussions related to the reading material, combined with in-class application cases. Because the textbook and related PowerPoint notes serve as an important "springboard" for further discussion, classroom presentations by the professor will not be a mere rehash of the text material but will instead use it as a platform on which to build a deeper dialogue. This type of course requires that each day, every student come to class fully prepared to discuss the material that is relevant for that class period and also to participate in any in-class team breakouts. In order to succeed in this course format, each student must be willing to contribute his/her ideas to the class discussion. I may call on you in class for feedback, so it is very important that you be prepared for the day's assignments.
