Nov. 21: Reminder

As stated in class, my experience of teaching this course for 13 years suggests the class average at the end of the day will be 70%.  It takes time and effort but the pains and arrows of outrageous Economics (as a discipline of thought) are generally rewarded.  Taking psychic income from slacking one's study schedule, however, does not.   Disutility earns income; Income earns utility!

 

All the best.

Definitions:                      5%

Assumptions:                   5%

Engaging:                         5%

Informative:                     5%

Clarity:                             5%

Total Grade:                     25%

Military Planning Model: Objective, Strategy, Tactics, Logistics

To ease the burden use the rubric to design your presentation.  But ask yourselves: What is your objective? What is it you want to achieve? What strategy - overall design - do you have in mind? Does the design allow you to break it down into functional elements - tactics? References, for example? And of course, putting it all together with fingers to keyboard - logistics - material things, supplies you need to do the job.. Then, of course, you must bring together  all the elements into a final product marketed to your peers.

Hope this helps.
