Overview

Management teachers understand that the development of different skill sets need different pedagogical approaches. Management teachers typically use lectures, case discussions for developing management insights among the participants; however, the emphasis and use of other tools are still not popular. The importance of experiential learning is well known in management teaching however, academicians are reluctant to use these as they are not well versed in using these. Further, they may also lack access to simulation games. The programme aims to help management teachers in developing and widening their expertise and incorporate simulation games as a pedagogical tool. They learn not only how to identify the need for simulation games but also how to use it and how to develop their own simulation games.
