Topic outline

  • Here you can return your respective learning diary before the deadlines. Further information on how to structure this diary will be discussed in the introductory class on Monday, October 24.

    Each student writes a maximum of 4 diaries - that means you can choose on which topics you want to turn in a diary. You have 8 possible diaries to choose from.

    The following perspectives should be considered:

    • What were the main issues in the pre readings? (max 1 page)
    • How does your case company look like from the perspective of this material? (max 1 page)
    • How does this relate to your earlier knowledge?
    • Did some issues remain unclear?/What would you like to know more about?
    • Do you disagree with something that is said? Why?

    Important: Also, present 1 question which you would like us to address during the lecture. Each diary is graded between 1 and 5 points, which means you may achieve a maximum number of 20 points from this assignment.

    *** The diary should be 3 pages (5 absolute maximum!) each, written in Times New Roman size 12, 1.5 lines spacing. ***
