Suggestions for Student Input of Decisions in General Management Simulations

Resumen

The purpose of this paper is to describe an approach to having student teams submit and input their decisions in a general management simulation used in a business policy course. In this course the general management simulation - TEMPOMATIC IV (Scott and Strickland, 1974) is used. This simulation requires teams to make decisions in approximately 70 areas each decision period. The decisions must be punched on six separate cards or represent six separate lines in a data file.
