teaching aids to MOOCs and asynchronous modes of
learning. This programme will introduce participants to the
nuances of digital learning, including flipped classrooms
and blended programmes.

courses.
Class preparation and delivery: Specific focus
on case method of teaching; case selection, pre-
class preparation, class room choreography, student

writing management cases; defining case leads and
learning outcomes; writing the case narrative; sourcing
