About the seminar

At the beginning of the 20th century, Harvard University created a case teaching method to analyze and process real business scenarios through independent research and mutual discussion in the classroom, so as to improve students' ability of analysis and problem-solving. The development and application of case teaching has been practiced for many years. Both the abundance of teachers in preparing business classes and the absorption of theory and practice by students have a significant effect. The cases selected by Harvard are not only suitable for classrooms, but also for students' self-study and discussion. Quickly absorb the experience and lessons of top companies in the most realistic context. This teaching method is widely used and valued in education and training in the world today.

In this online seminar, we specially invited Professor Zhu Guowei from the School of Business Administration of Hunan University to share some of his practical sharing and personal application in case teaching. We sincerely invite you to participate! At the same time, you are also welcome to forward this email to the relevant colleagues of the Department of Business, and I hope that the teachers or students of the business schools of each school can join the discussion online, thank you.
