Cognitive Learning using a Computer-Based, Qualitative Interactive Business Simulation
Abstract
Criticism has been directed at educators for failing to teach students and managers how to solve problems. Concentration has been on methods for solving structured problems or problems comprised of limited and clear characteristics for which accepted methods of solutions have been developed. Means for providing and coping with a set of uncertain and unstructured factors has been lacking. The paper discusses a language-based computer simulation which permits the subject to utilize cognitive skills for memory-recall of the concepts acquired in education and experience to find and achieve an understanding of a complex business situation.Downloads
