    State of the Art of Using Simulations in Teaching Strategy

    STR Teaching PDW 2018

    Program Session: 253

     

     

     

    The Strategic Management Division will sponsor its annual Teaching PDW during the pre-conference period of the 2018 Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management in Chicago.

     

     

    Saturday, Aug 11 2018 8:00AM - 10:00AM

    Swissôtel Chicago in Alpine II

     

    This professional development workshop (PDW) features innovative approaches to teaching strategy using state-of-the art simulations. We seek to provide PDW participants with an overview of both leading semester-long general market simulations and shorter, focused simulations (with fewer dimensions of choice) for participants wishing to use simulations for specific topics, rather than throughout the term.

     

    The primary objectives of this PDW are twofold. First, it will introduce and provide short demonstrations of four different simulations-two general market simulations and two focused simulations-that can provide powerful experiential learning in the classroom. Second, it will provide participants with the opportunity to engage with the presenters and organizers during an interactive Q&A to learn how to integrate these simulations into their own courses. The PDW will conclude with summary comments from the presenters and organizers.

     

    The topics and presenters include:

     

    Part I: General Market Simulations

    1. CAPSIM

    Presenter: Frank T. Rothaermel, Georgia Institute of Technology

    2. The Business Strategy Game

    Presenter: Marvin Washington, U. of Alberta

     

    Part II: Focused Simulations

    3. Back Bay Battery

    Presenter: Tammy L. Madsen, Santa Clara U.

    4. Strategic Management Games

    Presenter: Michael J. Leiblein, Ohio State U.

     

    Pre-registration is not necessary, but we suggest arriving early since we have limited seating!
