Descripción de las Normas del Curso

1. Este curso sigue el modelo “Discipline-Based Dual Language Immersion Model®”

del Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, el mismo está diseñado para promover el

desarrollo de cada estudiante como un profesional bilingüe. Cada taller será

facilitado en inglés y español, utilizando el modelo 50/50. Esto significa que cada

taller deberá ser conducido enteramente en el lenguaje especificado. Los lenguajes

serán alternados en cada taller para asegurar que el curso se ofrece 50% en inglés

MARK 320 Marketing Research 5

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

y 50% en español. Para mantener un balance, el módulo debe especificar que se

utilizarán ambos idiomas en el quinto taller, dividiendo el tiempo y las actividades

equitativamente entre ambos idiomas. Si un estudiante tiene dificultad en hacer una

pregunta en el idioma especificado, bien puede escoger el idioma de preferencia

para hacer la pregunta. Sin embargo, el facilitador deberá contestar la misma en el

idioma designado para ese taller. Esto deberá ser una excepción a las reglas pues

es importante que los estudiantes utilicen el idioma designado. Esto no aplica a los

cursos de lenguaje que deben ser desarrollados en el idioma propio todo en ingles o

todo en español según aplique.

2. El curso es conducido en formato acelerado, eso requiere que los estudiantes se

preparen antes de cada taller de acuerdo al módulo. Cada taller requiere un

promedio de diez (10) horas de preparación y en ocasiones requiere más.

3. La asistencia a todos los talleres es obligatoria. El estudiante que se ausente al

taller deberá presentar una excusa razonable al facilitador. El facilitador evaluará si

la ausencia es justificada y decidirá como el estudiante repondrá el trabajo perdido,

de ser necesario. El facilitador decidirá uno de los siguientes: permitirle al estudiante

reponer el trabajo o asignarle trabajo adicional en adición al trabajo a ser repuesto.

Toda tarea a ser completada antes de taller deberá ser entregada en la fecha

asignada. El facilitador ajustará la nota de las tareas repuestas.

4. Si un estudiante se ausenta a más de un taller el facilitador tendrá las siguientes

opciones:

a. Si es a dos talleres, el facilitador reducirá una nota por debajo basado en

la nota existente.

b. Si el estudiante se ausenta a tres talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota a

dos por debajo de la nota existente.

5. La asistencia y participación en clase de actividades y presentaciones orales es

extremadamente importante pues no se pueden reponer. Si el estudiante provee

una excusa válida y verificable, el facilitador determinara una actividad equivalente a

evaluar que sustituya la misma. Esta actividad deberá incluir el mismo contenido y

componentes del lenguaje como la presentación oral o actividad a ser repuesta.

MARK 320 Marketing Research 6

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

6. En actividades de grupo el grupo será evaluado por su trabajo final. Sin embargo,

cada miembro de grupo deberá participar y cooperar para lograr un trabajo de

excelencia, pero recibirán una calificación individual.

7. Se espera que todo trabajo escrito sea de la autoría de cada estudiante y no

plagiado. Se debe entender que todo trabajo sometido esta citado apropiadamente

o parafraseado y citado dando atención al autor. Todo estudiante debe ser el autor

de su propio trabajo. Todo trabajo que sea plagiado, copiado o presente trazos de

otro será calificado con cero (vea la política de honestidad académica).

8. Si el facilitador hace cambios al modulo o guía de estudio, deberá discutirlos y

entregar copia a los estudiantes por escrito al principio del primer taller.

9. El facilitador establecerá los medios para contactar a los estudiantes proveyendo su

correo electrónico, teléfonos, y el horario disponibles.

10. EL uso de celulares está prohibido durante las sesiones de clase; de haber una

necesidad, deberá permanecer en vibración o en silencio.

11. La visita de niños y familiares no registrados en el curso no está permitida en el

salón de clases.

12. Todo estudiante está sujeto a las políticas y normas de conducta y comportamiento

que rigen SUAGM y el curso.

Filosofía y Metodología Educativa

Este curso está basado en la teoría educativa del Constructivismo. Constructivismo es

una filosofía de aprendizaje fundamentada en la premisa, de que, reflexionando a

través de nuestras experiencias, podemos construir nuestro propio conocimiento sobre

el mundo en el que vivimos.

Cada uno de nosotros genera nuestras propias “reglas “y “métodos mentales” que

utilizamos para darle sentido a nuestras experiencias. Aprender, por lo tanto, es

simplemente el proceso de ajustar nuestros modelos mentales para poder acomodar

nuevas experiencias. Como facilitadores, nuestro enfoque es el mantener una

conexión entre los hechos y fomentar un nuevo entendimiento en los estudiantes.

También, intentamos adaptar nuestras estrategias de enseñanza a las respuestas de

nuestros estudiantes y motivar a los mismos a analizar, interpretar y predecir

información.

Existen varios principios para el constructivismo, entre los cuales están:

1. El aprendizaje es una búsqueda de significados. Por lo tanto, el aprendizaje debe

comenzar con situaciones en las cuales los estudiantes estén buscando

activamente construir un significado.

2. Significado requiere comprender todas las partes. Y, las partes deben entenderse

en el contexto del todo. Por lo tanto, el proceso de aprendizaje se enfoca en los

conceptos primarios, no en hechos aislados.

3. Para enseñar bien, debemos entender los modelos mentales que los estudiantes

utilizan para percibir el mundo y las presunciones que ellos hacen para apoyar

dichos modelos.

4. El propósito del aprendizaje, es para un individuo, el construir su propio significado,

no sólo memorizar las contestaciones “correctas” y repetir el significado de otra

persona. Como la educación es intrínsicamente interdisciplinaria, la única forma

válida para asegurar el aprendizaje es hacer del avalúo parte esencial de dicho

proceso, asegurando que el mismo provea a los estudiantes con la información

sobre la calidad de su aprendizaje.

MARK 320 Marketing Research 9

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

5. La evaluación debe servir como una herramienta de auto-análisis.

6. Proveer herramientas y ambientes que ayuden a los estudiantes a interpretar las

múltiples perspectivas que existen en el mundo.

7. El aprendizaje debe ser controlado internamente y analizado por el estudiante.

1. This course follows the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez Discipline-Based

Dual Language Immersion Model® designed to promote each student’s

development as a Dual Language Professional. Workshops will be facilitated in

English and Spanish, strictly using the 50/50 model. This means that each

workshop will be conducted entirely in the language specified. The language

used in the workshops will alternate to insure that 50% of the course will be

conducted in English and 50% in Spanish. To maintain this balance, the course

module may specify that both languages will be used during the fifth workshop,

dividing that workshop’s time and activities between the two languages. If

students have difficulty with asking a question in the target language in which the

activity is being conducted, students may choose to use their preferred language

for that particular question. However, the facilitator must answer in the language

assigned for that particular day. This should only be an exception as it is

important for students to use the assigned language. The 50/50 model does not

MARK 320 Marketing Research 12

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

apply to language courses where the delivery of instruction must be conducted in

the language taught (Spanish or English only).

2. The course is conducted in an accelerated format and requires that students prepare

in advance for each workshop according to the course module. Each workshop

requires an average ten hours of preparation but could require more.

3. Attendance at all class sessions is mandatory. A student that is absent to a

workshop must present the facilitator a reasonable excuse. The facilitator will

evaluate if the absence is justified and decide how the student will make up the

missing work, if applicable. The facilitator will decide on the following: allow the

student to make up the work, or allow the student to make up the work and assign

extra work to compensate for the missing class time.

Assignments required prior to the workshop must be completed and turned in on the

assigned date. The facilitator may decide to adjust the grade given for late

assignments and make-up work.

4. If a student is absent to more than one workshop the facilitator will have the

following options:

a. If a student misses two workshops, the facilitator may lower one grade

based on the students existing grade.

b. If the student misses three workshops, the facilitator may lower two

grades based on the students existing grade.

5. Student attendance and participation in oral presentations and special class

activities are extremely important as it is not possible to assure that they can be

made up. If the student provides a valid and verifiable excuse, the facilitator may

determine a substitute evaluation activity if he/she understands that an equivalent

activity is possible. This activity must include the same content and language

components as the oral presentation or special activity that was missed.

6. In cooperative activities the group will be assessed for their final work. However,

each member will have to collaborate to assure the success of the group and the

assessment will be done collectively as well as individually.

7. It is expected that all written work will be solely that of the student and should not be

plagiarized. That is, the student must be the author of all work submitted. All quoted

MARK 320 Marketing Research 13

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

or paraphrased material must be properly cited, with credit given to its author or

publisher. It should be noted that plagiarized writings are easily detectable and

students should not risk losing credit for material that is clearly not their own (see

Academic Honesty Policy).

8. If the Facilitator makes changes to the study guide, such changes should be

discussed with and given to students in writing at the beginning of the first workshop.

9. The facilitator will establish a means of contacting students by providing an email

address, phone number, hours to be contacted and days.

10. The use of cellular phones is prohibited during sessions; if there is a need to have

one, it must be on vibrate or silent mode during class session.

11. Children or family members that are not registered in the course are not allowed to

the classrooms.

12. All students are subject to the policies regarding behavior in the university

community established by the institution and in this course.

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

Teaching Philosophy and Methodology

This course is grounded in the learning theory of Constructivism. Constructivism is a

philosophy of learning founded on the premise that, by reflecting on our experiences,

we construct our own understanding of the world in which we live.

Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to make

sense of our experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting our

mental models to accommodate new experiences. As teachers, our focus is on making

connections between facts and fostering new understanding in students. We will also

attempt to tailor our teaching strategies to student responses and encourage students to

analyze, interpret and predict information.

There are several guiding principles of constructivism:

1. Learning is a search for meaning. Therefore, learning must start with the issues

around which students are actively trying to construct meaning.

2. Meaning requires understanding wholes as well as parts. And parts must be

understood in the context of wholes. Therefore, the learning process focuses on

primary concepts, not isolated facts.

3. In order to teach well, we must understand the mental models that students use

to perceive the world and the assumptions they make to support those models.

4. The purpose of learning is for an individual to construct his or her own meaning,

not just memorize the "right" answers and regurgitate someone else's meaning.

Since education is inherently interdisciplinary, the only valuable way to measure

learning is to make the assessment part of the learning process, ensuring it

provides students with information on the quality of their learning.

5. Evaluation should serve as a self-analysis tool.

6. Provide tools and environments that help learners interpret the multiple

perspectives of the world.

7. Learning should be internally controlled and mediated by the learner.

APA Formatting and Style Guide APA (American Psychological Association) is most commonly used to cite

sources within the social sciences. The American Psychological Association (APA) is in

charge of creating formal styles to refer material. They started to write instructions on

how to prepare manuals in 1929. Since then, the APA group has become one of the

leading authorities in publication styles.

PORTFOLIO

Guidelines to prepare the portfolio

1. Determination of sources of content

The following, but not limited to, documentation will be included:

a. Projects, surveys, and reports.

b. Oral presentations

c. Essays: dated writing samples to show progress

d. Research papers: dated unedited and edited first drafts to show progress

e. Written pieces that illustrate critical thinking about readings: response or

reaction papers.

f. Class notes, interesting thoughts to remember, etc.

g. Learning journals, reflexive diaries.

h. Self assessments, peer assessments, facilitator assessments.

i. Notes from student-facilitator conferences.

2. Organization of documentation

Documentation will be organized by workshop, and by type of assignment within

workshops. Workshops will be separated from one another using construction paper

or paper of different colors, with tabs indicating the workshop number.

3. Presentation of the portfolio

• Documentation will be posted in a binder or in a digital version (e-portfolio).

• The cover page will follow exactly APA guidelines applied to a cover page of

research papers submitted at Metro Orlando Campus. This cover page will be

placed at the beginning of the portfolio.

• The entire portfolio will follow APA style: Ariel or Times New Roman font, size 12,

double space, and 1-inch margins. See a “Publication Manual of the APA, Fifth

Edition”

• A log of entries that can be expanded with each new entry properly numbered.

The table, which should be located at the beginning, should include a brief

description, date produced, date submitted, and date evaluated (Appendix H).

MARK 320 Marketing Research 41

Prep. 2005. Luis Mercado, MA. Rev. 2008. Ely Melchor, MBA

• Introduction and conclusion of the income and outcome of the portfolio.

• A list of references and appendixes of all assignments included will be added to

the end of the portfolio.

• The Portfolio Informational Sheet will be placed in the transparent front pocket of

the binder for identification purposes (Appendix G).

4. Student-Facilitator Feedback Template: Progression follow-up

The final step in implementing portfolios, before returning them to the student or

school life, is sharing feedback with each student to review the contents, student

reflections, and your evaluations of individual items and all of the work together as

related to learning targets (Banks, 2005). Facilitators will e-mail a feedback template to

all students. This template will contain information pertaining to weaknesses and

strengths found in students’ portfolios (Appendix K). Facilitators will focus their attention

on showing students what is possible and their progress rather than what is wrong;

however, this does not mean that facilitators will not cover weaknesses and areas for

improvement during the conference. Facilitators will send this feedback template upon

completion of workshop one.

Students will also have the opportunity to respond to the facilitator’s feedback and

write their own comments and/or ideas of how to improve the quality of their

portfolios, and how to become better metacognitive learners on the feedback

template. Students will e-mail the template with their comments back to the facilitator

After every workshop.

5. Portfolio storage:

• Portfolio samples will be safely stored for a six-month term on campus.

• Students will sign an official document empowering Ana G. Mendez

University System with rights to use their portfolios with educational or

accreditation purposes during this term (Appendix L).

• After this term, and if their authors authorize Ana G. Mendez University

System to discard their portfolios by signing an official document, portfolio samples will be destroyed; otherwise, they will be returned to their original authors (Appendix M).
