Student Background as a Factor in Simulation Outcomes: The Collective Bargaining Example
Abstract
This study examines the effects that students’ backgrounds have on the outcomes of collective bargaining simulations. Collective Bargaining classes studied had varying degrees of homogeneity, as did the work groups formed within each class. The results support the hypotheses that having had work experience gives the student greater capacity to get more deeply into the simulation exercises. Implications regarding (1) the value in using simulation exercises and (2) considerations for implementing and administering such exercises are discussed.Downloads
