The Power of Why Web Series
Overview
A key aspect of the pedagogy at ISBF is questions. Questions lie at the heart of all academic pursuit and discovery, and our faculty encourage students to inquire incessantly. This is imperative for students to be able to tell the true from the untrue, to challenge the status quo and, in LSE stipulates, to understand the causes of things.
To initiate new ISBFians into this spirit of inquiry, the ISBF faculty have curated The Power of Why series. It is intended to showcase the might of a seemingly innocuous question and inspire each participant to ask one, even about seemingly commonplace phenomena related to economics, management and finance, and to re-explore them from a fresh perspective.
Starting 01 July 2022, one learning exercise will be conducted via video/webinar/workshop on each Friday for the next 8 weeks. Following the learning exercise, participants will be emailed a related activity. Completing the activity will help them earn points, win weekly prizes, and compete on the Leaderboard below for a grand prize on Orientation Day 2022. The schedule for the series is appended below.
May every participant learn, and the most enthusiastic one wins!
