Multimedia instruction: Utilizes PPTs, videos, and other multimedia tools to explain theoretical concepts clearly and effectively;
Seminars: Includes five scheduled seminar sessions featuring debates and reflective discussions to deepen understanding and promote active participation;
Practical simulations: Engages students in the “Beer Game” supply chain simulation to help them grasp upstream-downstream dynamics and the bullwhip effect, enhancing their hands-on skills and problem-solving capabilities.
Assessment Methods:
Final grades consist of continuous assessment (30%) and a final examination (70%).
Continuous assessment includes evaluations of students' self-directed learning, subject knowledge, teamwork, punctuality in completing tasks, and case analysis abilities. It is based on assignments, group projects, and class participation.
Final examination is a closed-book test that comprehensively assesses students' grasp of course content, ensuring they can not only recall key knowledge points but also flexibly apply them to solve practical problems.
