Are students connecting with your course materials? Students want to learn from coursework that reflects their world. Cases about companies they’re not familiar with featuring protagonists they can’t relate to, simply don’t resonate. As you plan for next term, look closely at your syllabus and ask yourself: Are you using materials that will resonate with students and help them envision themselves as future leaders? This week, we’re sharing tips to make your curriculum more relevant and inclusive from Nicole D. Hawkins, Ph.D., M.Div. & Dr. LaQue Perkins, PMP, CSM of Saint Leo University and Suraj Srinivasan of Harvard Business School and Maryam Garg of USC Marshall School of Business.

1moExcellent point yes my exact experience too - students connect much better with case studies which explore brands & business sectors they are most familiar with ....I found I did a lot of case studies on electric cars older grocery brands with minimal interest but huge interest on our case studies on smartphone brands, escooters, beauty brands, social media brands, gaming sectors ...its an important point for classroom engagement
