Abstract

This paper compares case studies and simulations, two popular experiential learning techniques used in capstone strategy courses, to provide insights into how each may contribute to the development and demonstration of students’ critical thinking skills. We compared critical thinking assessments of a simulation-based assignment with the same assessments of a case study assignment. Our findings suggest that simulations promote recursive learning and may result in higher critical thinking outcomes than the more passive learning typical of case studies. Recursive learning occurs through evaluation of successes and failures, and subsequent adjustments to strategy, characteristic of the competitive business simulation.

培养批判性思维技能:模拟与案例

摘要

本文比较了案例研究和模拟,这两种流行的体验式学习技术在顶点战略课程中使用,以深入了解每种技术如何有助于培养和展示学生的批判性思维技能。我们将基于模拟的作业的批判性思维评估与案例研究作业的相同评估进行了比较。我们的研究结果表明,模拟促进了递归学习,并且可能比典型的案例研究更被动的学习产生更高的批判性思维结果。递归学习通过对成功和失败的评估以及随后对战略的调整进行,这是竞争性商业模拟的特征。
