I have chosen business semester one course Management and Leadership for this project, this course introduces students to the basics of management issues and leadership styles. Learning outcomes for the course are:
1. Understand the functions of management and the role of managers working both individually and in teams.
2. Describe the pros and con of a range of traditional and contemporary organizational structures.
3. Describe the different methods and styles of management that leaders use to manage/motivate/lead and the impact they have on organizational effectiveness, with special emphasis on the UAE.
4. Investigate and discuss emerging issues in management and leadership.
The assessment type is divided into four parts as shown below. First three assessments focus on the practical activates. The last activity is based on combination of cognitive response and selective response using a Black Board Vista online exam.
The educational technology product I have chosen for this task is camtasia ( http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.html ). It is an excellent product to show students how to do anything or in simple words to present a lecture. It is used mostly in explaining technological stuff so far but I think it can offer more than that as shown in the video shared by Adnan earlier ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H4RkudFzlc&feature=player_embedded ).
Most of our students joining bachelors program have IELTS Band 5 but it is difficult for them to understand business vocabulary. To overcome this I am planning to develop lecture using camtasia. These lectures will provide following additional value in achieving learning goals.
1. It will provide explanation of difficult and unknown vocabulary.
2. Provide understanding of the topic to students before coming to class.
3. Post lecture students can learn from these video if anything is not clear to them.
4. Student who will miss class due to some reason can catch up with help of these videos.
5. It will help students to refresh their concepts before exams as well.

Hi Owais,
ReplyDeleteI don't know whether or not you're planning to use Google docs for your project, but I just came across this free guide for teachers using Google docs via my PLN. If you end up using Gdocs, I hope it helps.
