Description

As AI advances, businesses need graduates more than ever who can question, evaluate, and make sound decisions. The challenge is how to build these essential critical thinking skills while still covering your core marketing content. 

Join Professor Joe Cannon, author of Essentials of Marketing, as he shares the active learning approach he uses to meet that challenge. Learn how to turn traditional lectures into high-impact, skill-building sessions that help students master content and think more deeply about marketing problems.

You’ll walk away from this webinar with:

  • A clear, repeatable active learning framework for strengthening critical thinking without sacrificing coverage.
  • Ready-to-use activities and assignments that push students to apply, analyze, and evaluate marketing concepts—including activities that involve responding to AI-generated output.
  • Simple strategies to prepare students for the expectations of the workplace of today and tomorrow.
