H.        Method of Evaluating Students:

A student's final grade for the course will be determined by scores on: 1) in class participation (10%), 2), chapter presentation (20%), 3) term project (40%), 4) case study (30%).
           
Letter grades are assigned based on your numerical percentage score (see below) as follows:

A   = 95 – 100
A-  = 90 – 94
B+ = 87 – 89
B   = 84 – 86
B-  = 80 – 83
C+ = 77 – 79
C   = 74 – 76
C-  = 70 – 73
D+ = 67 – 69
D   = 64 – 66
D-  = 60 – 63
F   = 59 and below


Term Project:

Term Project is to be done by groups and each group should be consisted of 3-4 students.  The project is to let students write an ethnographic research report about a business (mostly the college cafeteria), by 1) conducting a literature review about the similar research topic, 2) making a participant observation for about 10 weeks, 3) conducting in-depth interviews with informants, 4) conducting a cultural audit, 5) make a implementable managerial suggestion to improve the business profitability and employees’ productivity.

The instructor will discuss each of the five parts of the term project in the class according to the class progress and student needs.  The following academic/professional journals/magazines can be used as resources for the students to do the literature review:
