Abstract

This action research project followed a typical cycle of identifying problem through reflection on teaching-learning process, planning for improvement and executing the plan, evaluating the impact of actions taken and then reflecting on the whole process. The goal of the action research project is to nurture the higher order thinking among the students of specific class. The researcher has applied Gagne's instructional events with the aim of nurturing higher order thinking amongst the first-year students of MBA (Innovation and Entrepreneurship) batch. The course being taught was 'Introduction to operations management'. I really learnt a lot form the whole process and found Gagne's instructional events enable us to communicate with students very effectively and also supports in developing effective learning experiences with specific goals. As per goals of action research, the study not only helped to improve the practice but also apply innovative learning methodologies with structured approach.
