    Posted 28 days ago
    • Do you have a great icebreaker that you use in your undergrad, graduate, or post-experience business and management teaching? 

    • Have you developed an icebreaker to help support social connection among you and your learners for online, hybrid, or asynchronous settings? 

    • Have you designed module-, course-, or program-level icebreakers that build social connections while accounting for large enrolments, resource scarcity, or other shifts? 

    If yes, then consider documenting your activity for use by educators as part of the Management Teaching Review Special Issue that Stuart Middleton, Lisa Callagher, Liz Nichols, Jonathan Staggs, and Guy Bate are co-editing

    Submissions will be accepted starting February 1, 2026, with a final deadline of March 31, 2026
