Appendix C. Internet Resources
The web is a fertile and ever-changing source of ideas for syllabi, teaching
techniques, and curricula. Using a search engine like Google, enter the keywords
“Bolman Deal Reframing Syllabus,” and you should get an extensive list of
syllabi from a variety of courses and universities. A search in early 2003
turned up hundreds of hits. The first page included courses with titles like
“Managing Science and Technology,” “Organizational Theory and Behavior in
Education,” “Dynamics of Organizational Behavior,” “Organization and Management
Theory,” “Organization, Governance and Administration in Higher Education,”
“Policy Development,” and “Public Administration Theory,” among others. You can
narrow the search by adding additional keywords—business, organizational change,
education, public sector, and so forth.
