The case discussion is individual-based (discussions are encouraged). There are three cases (extra fees required). For each case, there will be questions provided beforehand. Students have to write a one-page answer and submit it at the assignment area of the ceiba website by the night before the case discussion (3/20, 4/3, 4/17). Participation is required in discussing the case. I will also call on people to provide opinions. To allow me better understand you; please submit your personal information at the assignment area of the ceiba website by 3/13.
