- Hi! Nice meeting you! Could you introduce yourself? What department are you from? What courses are you teaching or have been teaching? What are the classes you teach like, such as format or class size? Is there anything you want to tell us about your teaching, research, or other projects?
My name is Amita Singh. I teach courses in the Management Department at Zicklin. This semester I am teaching two online synchronous courses: Operations Management with 45 students, and a quantitative methods course on Predictive and Prescriptive Analytics with 79 students. - Could you talk a little bit about that course you’ll be working on during this seminar?
I will be focusing on the quantitative methods course. This is a required course for all BBA students, and is being offered for the first time to the students this Fall. - What are the listed learning goals of your course? They could be ones provided by the department, or ones that you have written for your syllabus? Please list them (pasting is fine!).
The goal for this course is help students develop quantitative reasoning skills necessary for success in business. Throughout the course, students will build quantitative literacy skills through writing about analytics, model building, and interpreting quantitative information to understand and use data in managerial decisions. - What class materials are you planning to develop? What goals do you have for them?
I would like to develop a way to get students to refresh their pre-requisite foundational concepts in statistics without taking up 4 weeks of the course time.
