Course Structure

Per Department directive:

All Summer 2024 courses in the Department of Technology Management and Innovation will be delivered in a live, synchronous, instruction mode. Department faculty will not permit students to participate asynchronously, and students are expected to attend each lecture session (this is especially important due to the compressed timeline of the course offerings). Please note that there are no exceptions to this policy, and students are advised to make the appropriate withdrawal arrangements prior to the start of the summer term if they are unable to participate synchronously.

Per the Department directive above, all students in this 7 Week Summer Class will be required to attend all sessions Mondays and Wednesdays from 6pm to 8:45pm New York Time.

All students will be required to have their video 'on' from 6pm to 8:45pm New York Time.  In addition, all students will be required to login using their nyu.edu login and password via nyu.zoom.us

If you cannot meet the above Departmental requirements, including any pandemic-related issues, kindly drop the course and register for the Fall Classroom sections.

Your grade will be affected adversely if you are not attending class sessions, not keeping your video on, not participating during the class sessions (especially when called upon) In terms of fairness and equity to the class, you will earn a final grade of F if you don't have your video on, don't attend class sessions as scheduled, don't participate in class, among other factors.

Final Exams will be using NYU approved Respondus lockdown software.

We will use the the Respondus software on May 22nd with practice quiz to ensure you can download the software.

If you cannot successfully download the Lockdown respondus software by May 22nd class, I would encourage you to drop the course and register for the Fall 2023 classroom sections.   Per the NYU Academic Calendar, the Add/Drop deadline is May 23rd.

Weekly Course Content

Class Sessions

Please note: This is a roadmap. In my view, every semester I teach a course, it leads down different paths and roads. Every class, every class size, every class demographic is unique and I do not use the  same syllabus every semester. In Global Innovation, change occurs on an almost daily basis. Therefore, I will advise you well in advance    of new current material I have discovered during the semester and assign accordingly. Please use the below Class Sessions as a roadmap that will take different directions, different turns. As in the workplace, the below is ‘fluid’ and will change during the semester as I contribute the most current Global innovation material to date. I will then revise

the below sessions accordingly. Again, you will know well in advance what and when the next session class assignments are due.
