Summary: This article introduces a game for classroom use based on a simplified model of the computer industry from 1980 to 1995. It was designed for a four-hour session, in a classroom, with up to thirty participants, but preferably with around sixteen participants. The model simulates a production capacity that grows faster than demand and therefore leads a change in the strategy from quantity to quality. The model is very simple to give the students a better view of the possibilities, and yet the possible combinations are so many, that no two games will be the same. Language: Inglês Reference Number:
