“T he test-and-learn approach encouraged in the Food Truck Challenge leads to an “aha moment” for many of my students, who have been academically trained to conduct copious research before making decisions,” said Levy. It is versatile enough to work from undergraduate to executive education levels.”ĭebuting five years ago, Roberto’s New Venture Simulation: The Food Truck Challenge has quickly gained in popularity and was Georgetown University Professor Stuart Levy’s top selection. “This simulation works in a variety of courses addressing leadership, teams, and organizations. , of New York University who chose the Everest simulation as her favorite.
“A well-designed, rightly timed simulation can turn any class into an experience…They create shortcuts to mastery,” said Anna Tavis, Ph.D. simulation was recognized as the best-selling simulation ever developed and distributed by Harvard Business School as the school celebrates 100 years of the case method. The award-winning Everest and Team Leadership simulation, developed by Roberto and co-author Harvard Business School Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management Amy Edmonson, “uses the dramatic context of a Mount Everest expedition to reinforce student learning in group dynamics and leadership.” This simulation was recognized as the best-selling simulation ever developed and distributed by Harvard Business School as the school celebrates 100 years of the case method. “A well-designed, rightly timed simulation can turn any class into an experience…They create shortcuts to mastery." Two of his creations, the Everest and Team Leadership simulation and New Venture Simulation: The Food Truck Challenge, were recognized in Harvard Business Publishing’s recent feature, “ 6 Favorite Business Simulations to Teach-and Why. Roberto has created three widely acclaimed business simulations to help students learn how to problem solve and make decisions in real-world situations. Watch this video of Professor Roberto on simulations and active learning. He says they provide an “action-oriented perspective where students are actually doing things, making decisions, having to reflect on those actions and trying to understand what the lessons learned are.” He is a believer in the power of immersive, experiential learning and applies a variety of methods in his teaching, including business simulations. Roberto is continually researching and developing effective practices for engaging students to help them reach their fullest potential.
