Online project based learning in innovation management

Learning pedagogies increasingly involve a synthesis between traditional lectures and the use of case studies and project based group work. The Internet provides new opportunities to this learning approach. Internet applications can be developed for project based assignments, which are cheap and easy to deploy. They offer students interactive assignments and the opportunity to benchmark with other assignments online. Teachers have opportunities to review assignments online and offer project groups online advice and assessment. This paper presents a pedagogical approach to teaching innovation management that uses both traditional and online learning and assessment techniques.
