Contract Learning Pilot Study (Project Kaizen) Report

Abstract

A major part of the PMC curriculum is the Integrative Program Management classes which offers the students the opportunity to combine functional knowledge, student and faculty experience, and original thought in an integrated series of experimental exercises--- Experimental Learning (EL), Integrated Subjects (IS), and Grand Slam (GS) classes. The students in Section C, a senior section comprised of 0-6s, GS/GM-15s who had considerable Program Management Office experience, expressed a desire to try an alternative learning approach based upon a concept of learning contracts. The report is a condensed version of the results of the designed pilot study of control experimental groups.
