Description

The second of the article's three proposed mechanisms. The article states that "The emerging-knowledge tracking mechanism is intended to reduce the time lag between textbook updates and business practice." It uses generative AI's capacity to surface contemporary developments so that course content does not remain fixed to dated textbook material, addressing the textbook-lag challenge the article identifies in traditional management education.

Design Implications
