Implementing Online Course Redesign for a High Demand Course

Most business majors at Cal State LA take MGMT 473, an introductory class for Human Resource Management (HRM) either as an elective (Accounting, Finance and other majors) or a core course (HR students from Management). MGMT 473 is also serves as a pre-requisite courses for all HR Option courses. Thus it lays the foundation for other 400-level courses. This project serves as an initial attempt to introduce and measure the impact of hybrid and online course redesigns on student success. If successful we will not only be able to address the issue of low grades but also of accessibility. An online course will greatly help our students, most of whom have jobs and other responsibilities.
