Management students need to learn the concept of theory in order to both understand managerial latent dynamics of organizations and to carry out research. However, teaching this concept using traditional teaching methods is difficult as the concept of theory is sophisticated in nature and the learning styles of today’s students necessitate alternative teaching methods. Thus, in this study it is argued that one television series, entitled House M.D., can be used as an alternative tool to teach the concept of theory, and the ways in which it can be used in the research methodology classroom are explained.
