Class Chapter Lead
Student groups will be required to lead the class on a chapter topic. The assignment must bring the chapter concepts to life in a meaningful way.
The objective of this exercise is to bring the assigned chapter to life in a thoughtful and memorable way. This assignment requires three components and should take up to 45 minutes, but no more than 60 minutes.
Present to the class a critical analysis of your team’s company focusing on an aspect of the company consistent with our topic of the week. Be certain to include a video or general presentation about the company.
Next you will lead the class in a group discussion on the topic in the general sense, utilizing the materials from our Tolbert and Hall text as well as other material you want to bring into the discussion.
Finally, you are required to come up with an activity that will engage the class on your chosen chapter. Our goal is to engage rather than stating facts or points from the chapter. You will be assessed on the level of engagement you create as well as the quality and delivery of the content of your topic.
