"Show, don't tell!" : popular films for discussion of individual values in construction project management
Savitha Chilakamarri
The purpose of this study was to consider the possibility of using a transdisciplinary pedagogical intervention for sensitizing construction project management students about the forms of corruption in the construction industry and the importance of value-based decision-making. In this regard, this paper proposes a strategy using a popular film to examine the connections between a project manager's individual values and his/her value-based decision making during a construction project is proposed. For this purpose, this paper conceptualizes the phenomenon of corruption in the construction domain, formulates key criteria on the basis of which films can be selected for such discussion and proposes the theoretical lenses through which learning outcomes can be enabled at both the cognitive and affective levels of learning. The major observation of this paper is that proper frameworks which do not compromise on academic rigour must be designed while using such transdisciplinary learning interventions.
