     FEN-Course Abstracting Journal

     Editors:

     KAREN H. WRUCK
        Harvard University
        Mailto:kwruck@hbs.edu

     PETER TUFANO
        Harvard Business School

     Our new Finance Course Abstracting Journal (FEN-Course) is
     devoted to the rapid, worldwide dissemination of innovative
     courses addressing subject areas covered by the Financial
     Economics Network (FEN) journals.  Innovative courses
     include courses  that:  cover new and emerging fields, bring
     the findings of cutting-edge research into the classroom,
     utilize unique materials or educational approaches, and/or
     address standard subject matter in a particularly effective
     way.  Subject areas include, but are not limited to:
     Corporate Finance and Organizations, Banking and Financial
     Institutions, Capital Markets, International Finance,
     Emerging Markets, Derivatives, and Real Estate.  Courses
     designed for undergraduates, graduate students and
     executives are all welcomed, as are courses adopting a
     variety of educational formats.  The latter includes
     lecture-based courses, case-based courses, project courses,
     and courses based on other approaches to learning, e.g.
     simulated trading in financial markets.

     In disseminating innovative course materials, we are
     committed to upholding standards of collegiality,
     referencing and documentation equal to those that are
     standard in our research efforts.  It is not common in the
     profession to reference the source of ideas in teaching
     materials in the same fashion that we reference the source
     of ideas that are developed in journal articles and books.
     Yet ideas from courses and teaching materials strongly
     influence the work of scholars, students and managers.  We
     strongly encourage the acknowledgment and appropriate
     citation of such work.  We invite you, fellow teachers and
     scholars, to make use of the material offered in FEN-Course
     in your own courses, teaching.  If you do so, we request
     that you reference the material as you would any piece of
     scholarly work.

     Submissions to FEN-COURSE can be sent to the editors, Karen
     Hopper Wruck kwruck@hbs.edu, or Peter Tufano ptufano@hbs.edu

     As part of a submission package we would like to receive the
     following:

     1) A course description of up to 500 words.

     2) A document, such as a class by class reading list with
     full references for as many of the materials as possible,
     including cases, articles, exercises, problem sets,
     assignment questions, etc.  The more complete and detailed
     your document, the more useful it will be to colleagues.  To
     reduce the administrative burden on your office, we strongly
     recommend that you make this document available for
     distribution in electronic form.

     3) JEL codes representing the appropriate topic areas
     covered by your course. These codes are available from
     http://www.econlit.org/elclasjn.htm#d2head

     4) A brief description of the type of course (required,
     elective, undergraduate, graduate, executive), number of
     times the course has been offered, enrollment, and history
     of its development, if these are not included in the course
     abstract or accompanying document.

     Any questions regarding FEN-COURSE can be directly addressed
     to the editors kwruck@hbs.edu or ptufano@hbs.edu
