The Socratic Method
• Used in law schools
• Learning by induction—developing
general ideas by examining specific
cases
• Development of analytical skills
• Research shows that learning tends
to be enhanced when information
is acquired through answering
questions

Grading

COURSE INTRODUCTION

Grading Issues
• Course grades are assigned based on the total number
of points accumulated. LETTER GRADES WILL NOT BE
ASSIGNED TO PROJECTS OR EXAMS ALONE (see
syllabus).
• Marshall competition is very intense.
• Not everyone can be “above average.” Some will be
below.

More Grading Issues
• Extra credit cannot be assigned.
• Grading is based on performance. It is NOT assumed that you
start out as “perfect” and have “points taken off” for
deficiencies. A perfect score takes a nearly superhuman person!
• Grading is NOT based on effort put in (or perceived effort put in
or effort reported to have been put in).
• Final grades can generally only be changed to correct mistakes
in arithmetic, Scantron misreads, or data entry that have been
made. Work quality or cut-offs cannot be re-evaluated under
the USC grade change policy.

Examples: A New Product or Service
• Auto GPS system that offers the “least stressful” route as
one of options
• Car with built-in mini-safe
• Bathroom water collector for garden re-use
• Secular values training and leadership programs for
children of busy parents not involved in organized religion
• Sports free cable news network
This does not have to be an entirely new product category.
Adding a new feature or making alterations to a product
category qualifies if this is likely to be of value to some
customers. Even new specific shade of lipstick qualifies.
