Esercitazioni
Students are expected to be fully engaged in the entire learning process. This means that students have the opportunity to prepare five case studies. On the web site of the course students find for each case the relative assignment. The cases are designed to integrate the concepts from the case into the context of the course. With the cases’ preparation, each student will develop: 1. The ability to set the parameters for the problem (key concepts from the case). 2. A depth of knowledge about the case subject (understanding of material, good response to the observations of others). 3. The ability to tie-in case with other course concepts.
