Here are your tasks for next week. And a couple of clarifications about reflection papers and the first reading assignment.
Group Presentations: We will begin with the group presentations next week. The speakers should come prepared to the class. The note-takers should make sure that they wrote their notes in the comment section of the blog posts that they were assigned.
Reflection Papers: I am very happy with the quality of your reflection papers that I received this week. So, instead of asking for a paper each week, I decided to ask five papers per term. Thus, you don’t have to write a paper every week. But make sure that you submit five… These papers are pass/fail. If you don’t present something satisfactory, then you need to submit another reflection paper.
If you choose to write a reflection paper this week, it should be on one of the texts below.Thsee texts are available through the course website (not the tutorial website). For more information about reflection papers, see this link.
Reading Assignment: The deadline for the first reading assignment is October 3. Follow this link for more information about this assignment.

What do you think is the most important issue relating to business and society (however you understand it) facing your community/society today?
In the first tutorial, I divided you up into groups of four. These groups aren’t fixed—you are free to join a different group—but the roles that I assign are. Each group will have 4 distinct roles and it is up to the group members themselves to decide who will fill each role:
The note-taker will note the questions as well as the responses. The facilitator’s role is to ensure that everyone participates—if there is silence in response to the questioner’s questions, the facilitator should help the questioner rephrase the questions. The speaker will then become the spokesperson for the group when we return to class discussion after the group work is complete.
