  • 1.  Strategic Management Course

    Posted 07-02-2025 09:24

    Hi Everyone, 

    I am teaching Strategic Management to MBA students in the fall sem. In this regard, I am looking for advice to deliver and evaluate the course in ways that can restrict the "copy paste" impact of Gen AI. 

    Also, I highly welcome suggestions on the course manual/structure/Books. Thanks,

    Best, 

    Manash

    On Manash's query about restricting copy-paste, consider:

     

    1. Incentivized honor-system grading. The idea is to let students grade their own submissions, which you audit from time to time, as in U.S. income-tax filings. When audited, a submission receives a bonus or penalty, depending on the veracity of the student's grade. My paper on this, "An Incentivized Honor System for Grading Preparatory Assignments of Business Games and Cases: Theory and Implementation" can be downloaded from the website of the Assn. for Business Simulation and Experiential Learning (https://absel.org/dabsel/).

    2. A computer-assisted business game, where the conditions of the game depend on participant-to-participant interactions. For this, attend the Association's next conference (https://absel.org/absel-2026-call/).

     

    As for suggestions on course materials, Business LibreTexts is a source of free roll-your-own textbooks (click icon below for my textbook) and related materials. GroupMaker is my free teaching management application (click icon below), a timesaver If you give students many assignments involving cases, games, and other collaborative learning activities.

     

    Best regards,
