MyManagementLab™: Improves
Student Engagement Before, During,
and After Class
Learning Catalytics—A “bring your own device” student engagement,
assessment, and classroom intelligence system helps instructors
analyze students’ critical-thinking skills during lectures.
Dynamic Study Modules (DSMs)—Through adaptive learning,
students get personalized guidance where and when they need it
most, creating greater engagement, improving knowledge retention,
and supporting subject-matter mastery. Also available on mobile
devices.
MediaShare for Business—A curated collection of business videos
tagged to learner outcomes helps students understand why they are
learning key concepts and how they will apply those in their careers.
Instructors can assign customizable, auto-scored assignments and
upload their favourite YouTube clips or original content.
Personal Inventory Assessment—A collection of online exercises
promotes self-reflection and engagement in students, enhancing their
ability to connect with concepts taught in principles of management,
organizational behaviour, and human resources management classes.
Decision-making Simulations—Simulations put your students in the
role of a key decision maker. The simulations change and branch
according to the decisions students make, providing a variation of
scenario paths. Upon completion of each, students receive a grade
and a detailed report of the choices they made and the consequences.
Writing Space—Better writers make great learners, who perform
better in their courses. The Writing Space—providing a single location
to develop and assess concept mastery and critical thinking—offers
assisted-graded and create-your-own writing assignments, allowing
you to exchange personalized feedback with students quickly and
easily.
Additional Features—Included with the MyLab are a powerful
homework and test manager, robust gradebook tracking, and
comprehensive online course content.
This book is dedicated to our friends and colleagues in the
Organizational Behavior Teaching Society who, through their
teaching, research, and commitment to the leading process, have
significantly improved the ability of students to understand and
apply OB concepts. It is also dedicated to the many leaders,
managers, and workers who agreed to share their stories for use as
examples and mini cases throughout the text. Their willingness to
reflect on their experiences and share their triumphs, mistakes,
and hard-won insights improves the learning experience for all.
