Elyssebeth,
Thank you for your prompt and informative
response. The NASAGA web site is impressive, indeed. If
anything, the number and scope of the simulations is
daunting. I am also very impressed with the NASAGA
members. I have already received an impressive response
from NASAGA members. The zeal of your colleagues beliefs
in simulations borders on evangelism in the best of ways!
I teach a business strategy course and use the
Business Strategy Game. I have become a enthusiastic
supporter of simulations. I was amazed how well the
Business Strategy Game taught the course quantumly better
than the typical case methods use in strategy.
I teach a second course melding economics and
ethics and third combing national and world public policy.
I'm in the market for simulations for the later two
courses. I would be glad to send syllabi or educational
objectives of the courses. Again, thank you for your
response. I would appreciate any advice.
Bruce
