As this class is an introductory course to various business-related disciplines, it is designed to provide the fundamentals of business. To establish your own base of knowledge, you will be provided with information from the course text on which you will be quizzed on during each module. Each week, there will be a 25 question quiz that will be based on your course textbook as well as a five question end of the chapter assessment embedded in your etextbook. You should read through your chapters each week, not only to respond strongly to your quiz, but to help you engage in discussion in the class. Though this is not a research intensive course or an upper level seminar, it is expected that you will apply concepts in this course to your assignments.

Moving past simple memorization and recall, you will apply what you have learned in individual discussion and group case study assignments. Be prepared to spend time each week responding individually to ethics discussion assignment, as well as participate in a group case study assignment. As you ethics activity and your group case study assignments may require outside research, and in the case of your group work there will be time required to meet, expect to spend a couple of hours of time dedicated to research, application, and response to these assignments.

Your individual discussion assignments should reflect thought, and additionally, encourage greater conversation among your peers as you will be responsible for responding to other's posts. These posts should move past a statement of agreement. Your case study assignments encourage group discussion and should honor all the contributions of the group.
