MG554 Management of
Human Resources
David
Pease
This
course focuses on the creation and execution of human
resource management strategies to enhance staff productivity
and engagement, while achieving a business competitive
advantage. Organizations have long understood that the
selection, development, rewarding, and retention of a
talented workforce are critical to business success. This
course is designed to help students understand the role of
Human Resources (HR) management and proven approaches to
optimize the people assets of an organization. This
experiential course will be comprised of three elements:
-
The creation of a learning environment
where everyone learns from each other to gain a
strategic perspective on HR issues through lectures and
discussions.
-
The application of critical thinking and
analysis to real life HR issues.
-
The practice of innovative people
management through hands-on application of key
concepts.
Students will explore the importance of aligning human
resources practices to business and strategic plans
(workforce planning, recruitment, training, and
development). In addition, students will address a variety
of HR levers available to managers in the development of
productive people and effective work systems (labor
relations, compensation, rewards, and recognition). Finally,
the course will illustrate how companies succeed or fail at
tapping the potential of their workforce (performance
management, employee engagement, staff retention).
ED590 Structuring
for Successful Learning
Dr. Lucie
Boucher
Knowing how to provide the appropriate
instruction at the best time for maximum student learning is
a highly developed teaching skill. This course will provide
opportunities to recognize evidence of student learning, define what the evidence means,
and create learning opportunities to support positive
growth. Interactive opportunities will focus on shared
literacy experiences and participant interpretation.
Participants will design a teaching unit within their own
content area and grade level based on the gradual release
format of instruction.
By the end of the session, participants will:
-
recognize evidence of student learning as
it is manifested in various forms, content areas, and
grade levels;
-
interpret evidence as a way to determine
what the students know and need to learn next;
-
respond to evidence in a way that
stimulates deep thinking and learning skills;
-
design lessons that respond to specific
student needs;
-
evaluate overall effects of teaching; and
-
integrate curriculum-based foci and
student-centered approaches to maximize growth and
learning.
