Innovation in Professional Education: Steps on a Journey from Teaching to Learning

Based on the experience of the restructuring of the MBA program at Case Western Reserve University, the book describes the transformation of a program from one where student learning was incidental to teaching and research into one where learning is preeminent.

Draws from ten years of curriculum change efforts to trace the entire process of program redesign, from initial discussion to implementation and evaluation.

Examines strategic planning within the professional school and describes in detail the Managerial Assessment Course--a key element of the new program and a driving force for self-directed learning.
