PREFACE

The 13th edition of the Instructor’s Manual was written with you, the human resource management instructor, in mind. In this manual my goal was to assist you in making class discussions more interesting and informative while helping reduce the amount of time you spend preparing for class sessions. No matter how much information is presented in a textbook, the instructor plays a crucial role in effectively discussing the concepts and theories and in building student enthusiasm for the subject matter. To my knowledge, this manual is one of the most comprehensive available for any human resource management textbook, and I believe that you will find it to be a valuable teaching aid.

TEACHING RESOURCES

Chapter Objectives

Chapter objectives are provided at the beginning of each chapter.

Key Terms

All key terms used in each chapter are defined.

Lecture Outline

A comprehensive lecture outline is prepared for each chapter.

Ethical Dilemmas

A brief exercise called “Ethical Dilemma” is included in all except the first chapter. These exercises are designed to permit students to make decisions regarding situations that could occur in the real world. In all instances it should be readily evident what the ethical choice should be. Decisions are often nice and neat in an academic environment. Then, students should ask themselves if there are other factors that some would consider in making a decision. Often there are factors that might sway a person to make a less than ethical decision.

Discussion of Chapter Exercises

End of chapter exerciseshave been added as a new feature to the 13th edition. These exercises provide in-depth, thought-provoking questions to the material covered in the text.

Answers to Chapter Review Questions

Answers to each of the review questions at the end of the chapter are provided.

Discussion of Chapter Incidents

Possible answers to each of the HRM Incidents presented in the text are provided. Because there are few instances in human resource management where there is a perfect right or wrong way to accomplish a task, please remember that responses provide only a guide to the discussion of the cases. Instructors may wish to elaborate further in their discussion.

Student Evaluation:

Five objective exams, in addition to a comprehensive final exam will be given. The final will count the equivalent of two tests. Test questions may come from your text, my lecture, or a combination. All tests are weighted 100 points each.

The following grading scale pertains: 90 - 100 = A; 80 - 89 = B; 70 - 79 = C; 60 - 69 = D; below 60 = F. I curve each test. Therefore, you must have a 90-grade average for an “A.” 89.99 is not an “A.”

Your grade for each test will be available to you in “Student Tools,” “Check Your Grade” in Blackboard. I will also return the test the next class period.

Testing Rules

No leaving the classroom after the test begins.

Bring a Scantron (two if you think you might have to erase)

Bring a number two pencil.

If you have a sinus problem, bring some tissues.

Keep your eye on your own paper.

I will put your name on the test. Find yours.

Nothing should be on your desk except, test, ID, pencil, and Scantron.

Mark your answer on your test first. When you are certain about your answers, put your answer on the Scantron. Do not erase on the Scantron. An incorrect answer because of poor erasure will count as an incorrect answer. Print your name on the Scantron.

Occasionally I will place selected information on Blackboard. Grades will be on Blackboard. I will also hand the tests back in class.

Attendance requirements for this class are the same as stated in the current Catalog. Attendance records will be maintained. All makeup examinations will be given on.
