Hear, Understand, Remember, Interpret, Evaluate,
Respond (HURIER)
Sometimes
having a clear measure between what is taught
and what is being processed allows students
to determine their own strengths and weaknesses.
The
HURIER model is an acronym for:
-
Hear,
- Understand,
- Remember,
- Interpret,
- Evaluate and
- Respond.
How does this apply to business school and
your curriculum?
When
you listen to the professor, ask yourself:
How
Does It Relate To Business In General?
Do
you know of any business cases where this
has been tried and tested? Did it work or
did it fail? In your experience, have you
gone through the same thing? If the answer
to any of these is yes, it is worth noting
as it will make studying and remembering
easier.
Apply
To Other Classes In Your Major.
It
is normal for a common concept to appear
in a wide number of classes within your
major. The impact of currency fluctuation
is discussed in international finance, portfolio
management and security analysis for example.
Apply
To Other Classes In Business.
Often
the same theories resurface in various classes.
The concept of a product life cycle in Marketing
comes up in Finance.
Making this link is key to understanding
in business school and excelling in the
corporate world.
Apply
To Other Majors.
Many
times, business theories are simple extensions
of theories from other fields. Management
is an extension of Psychology and Sociology
as applied in business. Most of us have
taken Psychology
and Sociology classes, so if a concept seems
familiar, make a note of it and mention
it in an exam for extra credit.
