Abstract

This study attempts to assess whether or not residual management learning occurs when two simple business simulation games are sequentially played. If players (students) learn something about management while playing one game, a measurable residual effect should accrue when playing the other game. Conversely, if no performance improvement occurs, players apparently have learned to play a game but fail to inculcate the management theory and principles represented in the simulation.
