A. Course Information
Course Code: HPC 4
Course Title: Supply Chain Management in Hospitality Industry
Course Description
This is a course in supply chain management (SCM), a term which denotes the integration of key business processes from end user through original
suppliers for the purpose of adding value for the firm, its key supply chain members, to include customers and other stakeholders. This course
presents a framework for SCM that requires cross-functional integration of key business processes within the firm and across the network of firms
that comprise the supply chain. This course approaches SCM from a managerial perspective and introduces concepts in a format useful for
management decision making. Basic terms, concepts, and principles are examined in light of how they interrelate and interface within the firm and
across the supply chain. Illustrations are taken from corporate applications of these concepts to show how supply chain management can be
implemented

C. Learning Plan
C.1. Teaching and Learning Strategy:
1. Visualization - Bring dull academic concepts to life with visual and practical learning experiences, helping your students to understand how their
schooling applies in the real-world.
Examples include using the interactive whiteboard to display photos, audio clips and videos, as well as encouraging your students to get out of their
seats with classroom experiments and local field trips.
2. Cooperative learning - Encourage students of mixed abilities to work together by promoting small group or whole class activities.
Through verbally expressing their ideas and responding to others your students will develop their self-confidence, as well as enhance their
communication and critical thinking skills which are vital throughout life.
Solving mathematical puzzles, conducting scientific experiments and acting out short drama sketches are just a few examples of how cooperative
learning can be incorporated into classroom lessons.
3. Inquiry-based instruction - Pose thought-provoking questions which inspire your students to think for themselves and become more
independent learners.
Encouraging students to ask questions and investigate their own ideas helps improve their problem-solving skills as well as gain a deeper
understanding of academic concepts. Both of which are important life skills.
Inquiries can be science or math-based such as ‘why does my shadow change size?’ or ‘is the sum of two odd numbers always an even number?’.
However, they can also be subjective and encourage students to express their unique views, e.g. ‘do poems have to rhyme?’ or ‘should all students
wear uniform?’.
4. Differentiation - allocating tasks based on students’ abilities, to ensure no one gets left behind.
Assigning classroom activities according to students’ unique learning needs means individuals with higher academic capabilities are stretched and
those who are struggling get the appropriate support.
This can involve handing out worksheets that vary in complexity to different groups of students, or setting up a range of work stations around the
classroom which contain an assortment of tasks for students to choose from.
5. Circle Talk - This strategy will help students to share their own ideas and opinions, and listen to and respect others’ opinions. It also holds all
students accountable for having something to say.
6. Technology in the classroom - Incorporating technology into your teaching is a great way to actively engage your students, especially as digital
media surrounds young people in the 21st century.
Interactive whiteboards or mobile devices can be used to display images and videos, which helps students visualize new academic concepts. Learning
can become more interactive when technology is used as students can physically engage during lessons as well as instantly research their ideas, which
develops autonomy.
Mobile devices, such as iPads and/or tablets, can be used in the classroom for students to record results, take photos/videos or simply as a behavior
management technique. Plus, incorporating educational programs such as Quizalize into your lesson plans is also a great way to make formative
assessments fun and engaging.
7. Behavior management - Implementing an effective behavior management strategy is crucial to gain your students respect and ensure students
have an equal chance of reaching their full potential.
Noisy, disruptive classrooms do not encourage a productive learning environment, therefore developing an atmosphere of mutual respect through a
combination of discipline and reward can be beneficial for both you and your students.
Examples include fun and interactive reward charts for younger students, where individuals move up or down based on behaviour with the top
student receiving a prize at the end of the week. ‘Golden time’ can also work for students of all ages, with a choice of various activities such as games
or no homework in reward for their hard work.
8. Professional development - Engaging in regular professional development programmes is a great way to enhance teaching and learning in
your classroom.
With educational policies constantly changing it is extremely useful to attend events where you can gain inspiration from other teachers and
academics. It’s also a great excuse to get out of the classroom and work alongside other teachers just like you!
9. Brain Storm - 1. Select a topic, question, statement or issue and write this on the board.
2. Set up the rules for the brainstorm:
share whatever comes to mind
the more ideas the better
every idea counts – no answer is wrong
no ‘put downs’ or criticisms
build on others’ ideas
write ideas as said – no paraphrasing
record each answer unless it is a repeat
set a time limit and stop when that time is up.

3. Students consider the topic and respond. Ideas can be written randomly on the board or you may choose to write the
responses on post-it notes and have students cluster the responses after the brainstorm.
4. Read and discuss the recorded ideas and clarify any questions where necessary. Group ideas that are similar and eliminate
those that do not relate to the topic. Discuss the remaining ideas as a group and decide how the information can be further used.
10. Decision – Making Model:
1. This strategy will help students to consider their own beliefs about their ability to view situations and events and solve
problems, explore a series of steps in making decisions in relation to positive healthy behaviours, and share reasons for making a
decision with others.
Prior to using a decision-making model students will need to understand the idea of ‘problem’, ‘choices’ and ‘decisions’. Younger
students may find it difficult to identify the problem in a decision-making scenario so give this step time and discussion.
Explain students make decisions everyday by looking at the choices they have available,
for example:
Which pair of shoes to wear?
What snack to have for play lunch?
Which fruit to eat at fruit time?
Where to sit at lunchtime/mat time?
Who to play with at lunch time?
What to play at recess/outdoor play time?
Decision-making models will allow students to consider and explore a range of alternatives before making a decision
2. Provide your students with a model to use in the decision-making process. Ask students to identify the problem and write this
in the model. Ask students to identify and manage their feelings about the problem. Students then gather information to identify
the range of possible options. Remind students that going to others for information can assist their decision-making, especially
when a difficult decision is to be made (however they need to balance their own views with the views of others).
3. Students write the options they have identified on the model.
4. Students consider the consequences (both positive and negative) to evaluate each option. When considering the consequences
ensure students look at the different types (physical, social, emotional, financial and legislative). The impact of the consequences
on self, family, friends and the community in the short-term and long-term also need to be examined.
5. Students discuss the feelings associated with these consequences and then justify their choice.
