ACTIVE-LEARNING EXERCISES

"Active learning" means students engage with the material, participate in the class, and collaborate with each
other in order to understand and retain the material. In an active-learning environment, students don‘t simply
listen; they aren‘t expected to memorize what is said but to understand the material, and later testing reflects
this. An active-learning environment requires prior preparation, both from you and the students; it helps if you
can tell them ahead of time what you will be doing in the next class.
The essence of an active-learning exercise is that the instructor sets the stage with a scenario and one or
more questions. To get the students to collaborate, the instructor may form teams based on some criteria.
Active-learning exercises do not always have to be team-based. There is always an output to an active-learning
exercise—either written or oral; you can provide a critique or assign another student team to provide one. You
should provide an assessment on these exercises; quality participation in such exercises should carry some
weight in a student‘s grade. My experience is that the more weight you give the exercises, the more and better
the participation. The more participation; the greater the learning.
This text has ample material for active-learning exercises. With the material below, you ask students to
provide a review or critique, provide an alternative approach, given an example, analyze an argument, provide
the alternative to the argument given, or apply concepts to a real management dilemma.


 PicProfiles
o Extended Reality Use in Business…(image: donut graph) an Accenture Consultancy study
identified XR as one of four major technology trends affecting business in the next decade.
 Use this to discuss technology and its impact on business in general and research in particular.
o National Youth Tobacco Survey…(image: man vaping) How the Food and Drug Administration
operationally defined vaping.
 Use this to discuss the importance of operating definitions. Ask students to operationally
define other tobacco/tobacco substitute products.
 Snapshots
o Analytics Under Delivers Compared to its Hype…(Image: Pie chart of State of Data
Analytics)…An MIT/Sloan Management Review and SAS report on data analytics users
 use this to discuss the state of data driven decision making in business.
