Keep your teaching fresh

Using Expert Briefings can help to keep teaching cases feeling fresh and relevant in a rapidly changing world. The scenario presented in a peer-reviewed case study might be a couple of years old as soon as it is published. Expert Briefings allow you to recast the case here and now – so important in a rapidly-changing world.

Encourage debate

Executive Briefings help students think globally or to keep tabs on trends as they develop.

Assigning a recent Executive Summary (just 200 words) as pre-class reading, allows you to kick off a seminar with a discussion about what’s going on in the world right now.

Develop critical thinking and decision-making skills

Expert Briefings content is used by business and government decision-makers all over the world. Using the content in class gives students practice in using and presenting information the way they will in their future careers.

Dr Giles Alston uses Expert Briefings to bring the real world into the classroom, by challenging students to monitor developments in a particular country or region throughout the semester and think about how the changing environment affects business and government decisions. We asked him to share his experience.

Case study: Help your students contextualise business implications of current events

Dr Andrée Marie López-Fernández, business professor and researcher at the Universidad Panamericana discusses how she uses Expert Briefings for classes at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels as well as for her own research.
