Charter Oak BUS 499: Business Administration Capstone Question

[topdog98]

How challenging are the cornerstone / capstone classes? What is the workload like?

I can't seem to find much information on them

The capstone has changed since I took it. The cornerstone is like an English composition course. It has several essays (750 words each), a research paper (about 6 pages), and weekly discussion posts (150 words) with responses (50 words each).

Workload is average. 2 discussion board topics weekly, an individual 10 page paper and 2 group projects.

When you say "2 discussion board topics" do you mean an online forum similar to this for those discussions?

How do you connect with the other students for the group projects?

[Decius73]

Yes, the class is offered on the Blackboard platform. There is a discussion board and it works like this forum. Each discussion, there is a question or topic that you must post a response to and then you must respond to at least two other posts.

With the group projects, it's up to the group. You can do via email, Skype, telephone, etc. but it's up to you how you complete the project.
