3. About Marketing Management | MKTG 300 About Your Program at Benedictine University – Moser College About This Document This is a hypermedia document – it has been built to mimic navigation on the web. This document can also be viewed as a presentation or it can be printed like a traditional document. We use this sort of document because it allows for navigation links (hyperlinks) to text, graphics, audio/video, and the web. This type of document also allows you to navigate in a nontraditional, nonlinear way – by following the page links you are not bound to read or flip through the document in any sort of order. This is yet another example of Moser College’s commitment to advancements in technology and blended learning. About Moser College The Moser College of Adult & Professional Studies delivers its curricular programs in a specifically designed structure deliberately oriented for working, adult learners. The Moser College is committed to providing a learning environment which extends beyond the classroom and is designed specifically to meet the needs of its students and their employers by bringing a quality educational experience without requiring the student to relocate or travel extensively beyond their home area. Benedictine University's Moser College of Adult & Professional Studies is fully accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools*. About Blended Learning Blended learning is the integration of different learning environments: mainly the online format with the face-to-face format, but may also include mobile learning. Blended learning, also referred to as hybrid learning, relies on both the advantages of digital/technology innovation and the methods of face-to-face instruction. At Moser College, we use blended learning by combining asynchronous online classroom sessions with a face-to-face classroom environment. * web path Benedictine Univ Academic Programs Moser College hallmarks of a Benedictine Education: Love of Christ and Neighbor  Prayer  Stability  Conversatio Obedience  Discipline  Humility  Stewardship  Hospitality  Community

6. Financial Aid Marketing Management | MKTG 300 Financial Aid Information FAFSA – Free Application for Federal Student Aid The FAFSA is required for all federal, state (Illinois residents) and Benedictine University need-based assistance. It should be completed as soon as possible after January 1st. Applying online with FAFSA on the Web at www.fafsa.gov is faster and easier than using a paper FAFSA. Have your completed U.S. Federal Income Tax returns readily available when completing the FAFSA. Include Benedictine University's school code: 001767 so the results of your FAFSA application will automatically be sent to our financial aid office. Sign you FAFSA with a Federal Student Aid PIN. Apply for a PIN at www.pin.ed.gov. If you are providing parent information, one parent must also sign you FAFSA. Types of Financial Aid Benedictine University's Office of Financial Aid administers a variety of federal, state and institutional programs of student financial assistance. All financial aid recipients must maintain satisfactory academic progress in accordance with the published, "Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy for Financial Aid Recipients.“ After completing the financial aid application process, the student will receive a financial aid award notification letter. The award letter will include the program(s) that the student is eligible to receive and the award amount(s). Grants/Scholarships - Grants and scholarships are considered to be gift assistance. This means the awards do not have to be repaid. Loans - Loans are considered to be a form of self-help assistance. Loan programs provide funds for educational purposes and are paid back with interest. Employment - Part-time jobs on campus are available to students through the University and Federal Work-Study program. Students working on campus receive a bi-weekly paycheck. Applying for Financial Aid – All students applying for financial aid are asked to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Applying for Financial Aid A college education is one of the largest financial investments a family will make. We believe that an education from Benedictine University will provide valuable returns throughout a student's lifetime. The Office of Financial Aid is dedicated to helping students and their families make a Benedictine University education affordable. We view the process of financing an education as a partnership. Although the student and his/her family have primary responsibility for meeting college costs, Benedictine University, as well as the federal and state governments have a variety of financial aid programs available to students who need financial assistance.

7. Netiquette Marketing Management | MKTG 300 About Netiquette Inappropriate Online Usage Avoid “flaming” – flaming is sending offensive, insulting or criticizing messages. This happens more often online then in face-to-face interaction, because there is an illusion of anonymity. Flaming is neither productive nor appropriate for the learning environment Always avoid flaming when it comes to content and opinions, but also avoid it when it comes to grammar, punctuation and spelling corrections Avoid using CAPS if possible and never type messages in ALL CAPS – this is considered yelling and is often seen as a form of aggression Use emoticons ( :) , :( , :-) ) sparingly and avoid the use of JK, BRB, LOL and other text language Netiquette Basics Follow the Golden Rule (“One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself”) Be ethical, fair, tolerant and mindful of others – avoid stereotyping, judgment and prejudice Know the boundaries of particular cyberspaces – what is acceptable in a text or chatroom with friends may not be appropriate in a classroom or in an online conversation with an instructor Respect the time of others by: 1) using descriptive subject lines, 2) resizing images for the web, 3) providing links instead of copying and pasting content, 5) using white space by inserting blank lines between paragraphs and headers and 6) limiting your use of attachments Copy the minimum number of people – it is tempting to send “email” or “message blasts” because it is easier for the poster, but it is not easier for the reader What is Netiquette? "Netiquette" stands for "Internet Etiquette", and refers to the set of practices which help to make the online experiences pleasant for all involved. As you might expect, netiquette, like other forms of etiquette, is about courtesy, manners, codes of behavior, protocols and respect. Netiquette primarily focuses on how we interact with one another online, by being aware of: our use of language, others’ cultural background, conventional norms, and other behaviors. Below you will find guidelines concerning the basics of online interaction. If it isn’t something you would say or do in the face-to-face classroom, it is probably inappropriate in the online class as well. Confidentiality and Privacy Email, messaging and posting are forms of written record and are just as permanent as a letter or document Do not publicize your own or others’ personal information (such as email, phone numbers, last names etc.) Respect copyright and cite any and all sources Do not expect that your communications are private, instead assume all communications are public For more information please review Netiquette by Virginia Shea Love of Christ and Neighbor  Prayer  Stability  Conversatio Obedience  Discipline  Humility  Stewardship  Hospitality  Community

As students, you should also know that student ratings and comments have been used to help evaluate courses and to improve the educational experience at Benedictine University. The appropriate standard of conduct with respect to student surveys is thoughtful comments and constructive criticism – respectfully communicated. A Focus on Learning “The IDEA Student Ratings system looks at instruction in terms of its endgame. Rather than emphasizing teaching style or personality, the IDEA system focuses on student learning and the methods used to facilitate it.” – from the IDEA website: www.theideacenter.org/node/5 Love of Christ and Neighbor  Prayer  Stability  Conversatio Obedience  Discipline  Humility  Stewardship  Hospitality  Community

20. Session 1A Marketing Management | MKTG 300 Faculty Weekend Session 3B In Class Work (suggested activities – as a class, individually or in small groups) Group Assignment: (suggested activity) You may want to give groups time to polish their plans. Formal Marketing Plan Presentation: Sales Pitch Groups of three or four people will develop a marketing plan by the end of the course. The standard components include: 1) Executive Summary, 2) Current Market, 3) Threats and Opportunities, 4) Objectives/Issues, 5) Strategy, 6) Action Programs, 7) Budgets, and 8) Controls. “Sales Pitch” In order to create a PBL (problem-based learning) scenario, have groups “pitch” their marketing plan to the other groups and the instructor. The audience should take on the role of investors and determine if they would invest in this new marketing plan or campaign. The presenters should take on the role of entrepreneurs, marketing consultants, or a marketing department. Successful grades should translate from successful pitches (ie. if the team presentation would be a plausible investment). REVIEW IN CLASS: Part 5 (Chap 21 -22) In Class Assignments: Icebreaker/In-Class Energizer (suggested activities – as a class, individually or in small groups) Complete an In-Class Activity group and pair activities which encourage collaborative learning, active learning, and self-directed learning Complete an Icebreaker get-to-know you, team building or group games see the “Successful Lessons” section at the end of this document Complete an Energizer during natural breaks in class start an energizer these should be tailored to the audience, build intensity, be flexible, be enthusiastic, and should change routine see the “Successful Lessons” section at the end of this document Multimedia:“Socratic Seminar” Prepare formulate a list of eight to nine discussion questions from this week’s reading and/or textbook review keep these open-ended to allow free discussion be conscious of cultural, religious and gender sensitivities Setup post each of these on a virtual whiteboard (you can use a blank PowerPoint slide, or a web resource such as: Scriblink, Web Whiteboard, CoSketch, RealtimeBoard, Scribblar etc.) have students sit in circles or arrange seats in an open forum encourage students to use critical thinking skills, dialogue, the dialectical method, to facilitate discussion Engage refer to the textbook or pull online sources (such as Google images) as you are discussing “cluster” or graphically organize what students say in “branching bubbles” and “graphic mapping” (you can use Web 2.0 resources such as Bubbl, MindMeister, Mindomo, Exploratree) you can also use PowerPoint’s “SmartArt” to create cluster maps and graphic organizers Chapter Questions: Choose a set of questions from the end of the chapters and have students answer these questions in small groups. Students should use APA format to answer the questions and should submit their answers to either the dropbox or share their answers in class. Learning Objectives Analyze how companies find and develop new products. Compile a list of the new product process. Determine the stages of the product life cycle.

21. Session 1B Marketing Management | MKTG 300 Faculty Weekend Session 4A Individual Assignments Chapter Summaries/Chapter Outlines Students should outline key ideas and key concepts from the Chapter Reading assignments. This is a self-directed learning assignment, and can be thought of as “talking points” – that is outlining key ideas and making connections. Talking points are lists of key ideas or key phrases used during public speaking, speeches, meetings, or conferences. These points outline the speaker’s agenda, the speaker’s purpose, and act as cues for the speaker’s pacing. Use talking points to outline a chapter, summarize the key points and/or make connections to class discussions and other materials. Group Assignments Marketing in the News Small groups have the opportunity to develop course materials – by locating articles, sources, clips or other media which connects to the course content. Connecting course material to current events or culture, not only adds to the richness of the course itself, but it diversifies the sources, the ideas and the vision of the course. Groups will share these sources in class. These sources should be found as a GROUP prior to F2F class. Suggested responsibilities of the group: one member shares highlighted bullet points from the article (summarizing its content) other group members add ideas, footnotes, commentary or supplemental information all group members determine whether the article is important to everyday people and why/why not all group members share opinions, critiques, criticisms and commentary Activities, Assignments and Agenda All assignments and assessments must be completed by the next F2F session. Written assignments should be submitted to the appropriate dropbox. Discussion Questions should be completed on D2L.Other assignments are due in F2F class. Reading: Part 4 (Chap 10 – 20)* *This is a large reading assignment. You may choose to assign less than Part 4 in its entirety. Chapters 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, and 19 are probably the most important. Individual Assignments Discussion Question(s): Brand Why is the "brand" of a product such a powerful asset of an organization? And how does a strong brand provide a competitive advantage for a company? What does a weak brand do for the organization? Provide examples. Peer Response Post review peer posts to the Discussion Topic and/or instructor’s posts and comments respond to one of these posts engaging in a virtual conversation be sure to keep up positive dialogue with peers Case Analysis 3 Throughout the readings brief cases, scenarios, and narratives are used to illustrate ideas and concepts in practical ways. Students should choose one of these for the Case Study. Students should address these 5 subtopics: clearly identify the “actors” (the person(s) involved summarize the scenario specifically state the conflict, dilemma or situation state an opinion or solution concerning the case support ideas with course material and course discussions Learning Objectives Participate in the weekly discussion question and subsequent forum threads to enhance the learning experience. Complete the group activity assignment. Analyze and explain the importance of sustainable marketing and the role of ethics when creating a successful marketing plan. Apply the material in chapter 6 - 9 to assist in the discussion with your current group. Actively engage the students by sharing your existing knowledge of marketing with regard to the value that’s created by salesmen/women and how companies adapt their marketing plans. Ensure all students participate so every everyone can benefit.

25. SUCCESSFUL LESSONS Philosophy behind the Course Design Core Principles This course focuses on three main goals: Real world scenarios which teaches practical life and business skills, through: active learning activities self-directed learning activities collaborative learning activities Critical thinking and problem solving analysis of key ideas and key concepts interpret information and apply it to problems use logic and systematic approaches Student-centered learning, through these guidelines: this course is not teacher-centered this course is an opportunity for students to connect to the material this course is an opportunity for students to share their prior and professional experiences this course is not a platform for the teacher to be the “boss” or the “authority” this course is a platform for the teacher to facilitate debate, discussion and conversation I recommend treating the course as a “vehicle.” That is, a method or pathway to exploring critical thinking skills, creativity, problem solving, team work, leadership skills, and written and oral communication skills. Use the PBL to justify the curriculum. Use discussion and dialogue to allow students to express their interest in the key topics and key ideas. Use exercises, lessons and activities that focus on real world situations. Avoid focusing on highly technical or highly specialized information until students have had a chance to explore generalities and the “big picture.” Use experiential learning activities. These are “experiences” as a opposed to note-taking, lecture, or formal educational models. Engagement is key! Remember, these are business majors! Link the content to business and innovation. I have listed a great number of activities, mini-lessons, and exercises in the previous pages. These are meant as an a la carte menu. Choose those that make sense based on your course discussions. Balance breadth and depth. Expose the students to as much of the text as possible. Try to go into depth on areas that they seem interested. Student-Centered, Adult Learning Here are some tips on creating a student-centered, adult learning environment: Allow students to co-develop the curriculum for the next five weeks. Certainly rely on your expertise, but don’t dominate the conversation. If they are interested in specific topics or specific problems, then focus on those areas. There is a lot of great material in the textbook. And the textbook does a great job of keeping the material accessible to all – even non-business majors. Reference the text as much as you can, but do so in a natural way. Business is flexible. You can be too! If you plan a night’s worth of discussion on customer behavior, but the students are more interested in financial opportunities, then role with it. The best thing to do, is over-plan and practice improv. Try not to allow your bias jade the conversation. As experts we tend to focus on specific areas, content, methods, etc. For an entry level class, there is no right or wrong method, there is no right or wrong content. There is an exploration of a BREADTH of material. Question your practices. I have written this course many times. Each time, I add and subtract, modify and adjust. I find that no one thing works all the time. Look for options. I have given you a lot of “suggested activities” and general frameworks which you can tailor to your needs. Just as I have given you options, make sure to give your students choices too. Create a learning pathway, not a rigid curriculum. This syllabus is simply the content. It is “how” students are learning key skills. The most important parts of the adult curriculum: writing skills communication skills creativity and innovation open-mindedness teamwork and team building problem solving skills critical thinking skills active listening skills organization and prioritization technology Love of Christ and Neighbor  Prayer  Stability  Conversatio Obedience  Discipline  Humility  Stewardship  Hospitality  Community
