Planned learning activities and teaching methods

This course applies the Experiential Business Learning (EBL) approach as learning activities. EBL is a process of learning and developing a business through sharing experiences. For this reason, teaching is given in the form of a combination of classical lectures, class discussions (based on issues faced by the company), case analysis and marketing simulations. During the class, students are required to play an active role in analyzing and applying the theories and topics discussed. Lecturers are expected to play more roles as facilitators in order to stimulate discussion sessions. Therefore, students have to prepare themselves so that the lecture process can run effectively.
