Exploring Management, 1st Asia-Pacific Edition 【內含Access Code, 經刮除不受退】(Paperback)

Exploring Management offers a flexible1. topic-specific presentation
The first thing you'll notice is that Exploring Management presents 'chunks' of material to be readand digested in short batches. This is a direct response to classroom experiences in which our studentsincreasingly find typical book chapters cumbersome to handle.
Students never read more than a few pages in Exploring Management before they do an activity thatallows them to bring closure to what they have just read. This chunked pedagogy motivates students toread and study assigned material before attending class. And it helps them perform better on tests andassignments.
Topics are easily assignable and sized for a class session. Although presented in the traditional planning,organising, controlling and leading framework, chapters can be used in any order based on instructorpreferences. Many options are available for courses of different types, lengths and meeting schedules,including online and distance-learning formats. It all depends on what fits best with your course objectives,learning approaches and instructional preferences.
Exploring Management uses a conversational and interactive writing style
The voice of the authors in Exploring Management speaks with students the way lecturers do in theclassroom - conversationally, interactively and asking lots of questions.
Exploring Management helps students get good marks, refine their careeraspirations and build useful career skills
Exploring Management is written and designed to help students prepare for quizzes and tests and buildessential career readiness and life skills. In addition to chunked reading, the end-of-chapter activities askstudents to answer multiple-choice, short-answer and integration and application questions as a startingpoint for testing success.

《探索管理》提供了一種靈活的、針對特定主題的呈現方式。

首先，你會注意到《探索管理》將材料以小塊的形式呈現，讓讀者可以分批閱讀和消化。這是對課堂經驗的直接回應，因為我們的學生越來越發現傳統的書籍章節讀起來很麻煩。

在閱讀《探索管理》之前，學生從不會讀超過幾頁，然後就會進行一個活動，讓他們能夠對剛才讀到的內容做出總結。這種分塊的教學方法激勵學生在上課前閱讀和學習指定的材料。它也有助於他們在考試和作業中表現更好。

這些主題容易分配並且適合一個課堂時間。雖然按照傳統的規劃、組織、控制和領導框架呈現，但根據教師的喜好，章節可以以任何順序使用。對於不同類型、長度和會議時間表的課程，有許多選擇可供選擇，包括在線和遠程學習格式。這完全取決於最符合你的課程目標、學習方法和教學喜好的方式。

《探索管理》採用了一種對話和互動的寫作風格。

《探索管理》的作者以與課堂上講師相同的方式與學生交流，以對話的方式、互動性地提問。

《探索管理》幫助學生取得好成績，完善他們的職業抱負並建立有用的職業技能。

《探索管理》的撰寫和設計旨在幫助學生準備測驗，建立必要的職業準備能力和生活技能。除了分塊閱讀外，章末的活動要求學生回答多選、簡答和整合應用題，作為測試成功的起點。
