Chapter 7:
Central University of Illinois has a newly appointed president, Catherine Husker. This has been a challenging budget year due to the difficulties of getting a state budget passed in the State Legislature. It appears from all reports that the budget that may get passed will be only 90% of last year’s state appropriations for the University. This means the University will have to cut their own operating budget for next year because of the State’s expected reduction in appropriations to higher education.
Husker just had a meeting with the athletic director of the university, Gareth Connor, to discuss the budget for the athletic department. Central University has been a men’s football and basketball powerhouse for the last several decades. However, the women’s athletic program has had less success. Last year, though, the women’s basketball team was one of the team’s selected to participate in the NCAA Women’s Basketball Competition through an “at-large bid” due to their outstanding season.
Connor and Husker discussed the 2018 Athletic Department budget, which Connor believed was the final draft. The meeting did not go well. In fact, it went terribly. Husker discussed four grave concerns she had about the Athletic Department budget and requested Connor to review and revise the budget in light of her concerns below. Draft II of the budget is due in two weeks time.
Concern 1: The Athletic Department is budgeting a loss of over $3 million. Given the tight fiscal position of the university, this outcome is unacceptable to Husker. A budgeted loss of $1 million is the most she will tolerate for 2018. By 2019 the Athletic Department has to operate with a balanced budget. She tells Connor this is nonnegotiable.
Concern 2: The low allocation of money to the women’s athletic program. Fox Valley News, a tabloid television show, recently ran a program titled “It’s a Man’s World at Central University Athletics’ Program.” Husker said Connor is treating woman athletes as “third-class citizens.”
Concern 3: The low academic performance of the men’s football athletes, many of whom have full scholarships. She notes that the local TV news recently ran an interview with three football-team students, only one of which “exemplified the high academic credentials she wants Central to showcase to the world.” As for the other two students, she calls one student “incoherent” and another “incapable of stringing sentences together.”
Concern 4: The outrageous salary paid to “Bull” Mason, the football coach. She notes it is twice that of the highest paid academic person on campus, a Nobel Prize winner. Moreover, Mason receives other payments from his “Football the Central Way” summer program for high school students.
Below is Draft I of the Athletic Department budget:
Central University 2017 Athletic Department Budget ($ millions)
Revenues:
Men’s athletic programs $10.350
Women’s athletic programs 0.780
Other (endowment income, gifts) 3.400 $14.530

Women’s athletic programs 2.800

REQUIRED:
Connor will be holding a half-day meeting with key officials of the Athletic Department (of which your team are some of these key officials) to discuss the university president’s concerns. In order for your team of officials to be prepared to discuss the concerns of the president at this meeting, please answer the following questions prior to the meeting.
Questions:
Who are the stakeholders? (Worth 4 pts.)
The Athletic Department is operating at a loss. What are some of the ways the Department can increase revenues? Are there any potential pitfalls or problems with any of your ideas? (Worth 6 pts.)

Merck, in fact, epitomizes the ideological nature--the pragmatic idealism--of highly visionary companies. Our research showed that a fundamental element in the "ticking clock" of a visionary company is a core ideology--core values and a sense of purpose beyond just making money--that guides and inspires people throughout the organization and remains relatively fixed for long periods of time. References: |
Research conducted by Collins and Porras (2002) highlights the importance of establishing and committing to an ideology comprised of two parts: (1) core values; (2) a core purpose. In my personal experience it seems easier to define a core ideology than to live it consistently. References: |

The philosophical position known as constructivism views knowledge as a human construction. The various perspectives within constructivism are based on the premise that knowledge is not part of an objective, external reality that is separate from the individual. Instead, human knowledge, whether the bodies of content in public disciplines (such as mathematics or sociology) or knowledge of the individual learner, is a human construction. References: |
Does knowledge exist outside of, or separate from, the individual who knows? Constructivists argue that human knowledge, such as what is known in the fields of mathematics or sociology, as well as knowledge about learning itself, is a human construction (Gredler, 2001).

There is a design methodology called rapid prototyping, which has been used successfully in software engineering. Given similarities between software design and instructional design, we argue that rapid prototyping is a viable method for instructional design, especially for computer-based instruction. References: |
Rapid prototyping could be an advantageous methodology for developing innovative computer-based instruction. Software engineers have been successful in designing applications by using rapid prototyping. So it also could be an efficient way to do instructional design. References: |

A teacher is one who guides or leads. To guide does not necessarily mean to instruct directly. We often think of teaching as direct instruction (presenting information, asking questions, giving feedback, demonstrating some procedure, evaluating student progress, and so on). But a teacher can guide without instructing directly. A good example is the Montessori system of education. In a Montessori school, most of what a child learns is through interacting with a variety of curriculum materials in a particular context. A Montessori teacher does much less direct instruction than do teachers in traditional schools. References: |
Teachers should be guides or leaders. In the role of a guide, a teacher does less presenting of information, demonstrating and providing feedback. For example, in a Montessori school, most student learning occurs through interaction with a variety of class materials, rather than interaction with a teacher. |
