    Behavioral Simulations PDW

    Behavioral Simulations and Interactive Exercises for International
    Management:
    Experience the New, Discuss the Old, Build your Portfolio


    Join us to explore two behavioral simulations and learn by doing. As we

    know, the use of
    simulations is generally "spread" through informal networks. To teach a
    new
    simulation requires learning, both tacit and behavioral, much of which
    cannot
    be easily transmitted explicitly (e.g., through a manual). Adoption
    diffusion is thus quite slow, relative to other teaching methods.

    Behavioral Simulations is an interactive session which will help you
    learn
    about these teaching materials and give you the opportunity to become
    part of
    a broader informal network through which we can spread news of future
    interactive materials more quickly.

    The sessions are from 8:30-12:00 on both Sat and Sun. On Saturday we'll

    explore Randomia Balloon Factory and on Sunday, Ecotonus. You may
    attend
    either or both sessions.

    Registration: Because of the nature of the simulations, registration is
    appreciated. There is no cost for either of these sessions. Please
    register
    by emailing Martha Maznevski (martha.maznevski@imd.ch) .
