The past two decades have witnessed an unrelenting expansion of
management education around the world. At the same time, however,
influential scholars a" Mintzberg, Bennis, Pfeffer and others a"
have levelled pointed critiques at these programs questioning their
quality and relevance, as well as their approaches to teaching and
learning.
a ~Preparing Managers for Actiona (TM) is a timely contribution
for management schools as well as other higher education
institutions seeking the means to increase the relevance and
quality of their professional education programs. The book
describes the use of problem-based learning (PBL) in management
education. PBL is an active learning approach first pioneered in
medical education, but whose use has grown steadily in a variety of
professional fields over the past two decades.
The authors draw upon their experience in using PBL in a broad
array of management education programs at the Bachelor, Master,
Doctoral and Executive levels, in North American and in Asia. This
book is designed to provide both novice and experienced users of
PBL with resources for designing and implementing problem-based
management education. The book provides the novice with useful
theoretical and practical background on how design a PBL
curriculum, use PBL in a classroom, and develop PBL materials. At
the same time, the book will challenge experienced users of PBL and
case teaching to extend their applications through the use of
learning technologies and more systematic approaches to assessment
and curriculum design.
