IN TEACHING O
Faculty at three schools describe new courses they've designed to refine students' skills and spark their enthusiasm about business.
ften, change within a business school comes not from a comprehensive curricular overhaul, but from a single new course or method that approaches teaching in more innovative ways. At the three schools featured here, pro- fessors identified an opportunity to enhance the learning experi- ence—and designed a new way to teach their students. Educators at each of these schools—Shenandoah University in
Winchester, Virginia; Rochester Institute of Technology in New York; and the University of Colorado at Boulder—describe the ways that a revised approach created change that affected their larger programs. In the process, they say, they not only enriched the experiences of students and faculty, but also provided starting points for growth in other areas of the curriculum.
