Simulations, Games and Role Play in University Education

Bok av Claus Nygaard, Nigel Courtney, Elyssebeth Leigh
This anthology advances a radical agenda for higher education, arguing that teaching activities should focus not primarily on knowledge acquisition but behavior. Noting that today's students face the double challenge of having to survive organizations and having to help organizations survive, this work discusses how these students will be called upon to help organizations find and realize innovative strategies for a sustainable future. Consequently, this works posits, higher education curricula must focus on key components of professional behavior and experiential learning must be central to this strategy.
