Examples of project management games are provided and elements of effective game design like progression, challenges, and rewards are outlined. The conclusion is that gaming can be a powerful experiential learning tool but requires multiple skills to design well.
New pedagogies for the digital age
The document discusses how the pace of change driven by new technologies has undermined traditional models of knowledge development and dissemination. It notes the exponential growth in internet usage and information sharing. It argues that current education systems need to change to prepare students for an uncertain future, through more personalized, self-organized, and informal learning that leverages new technologies and focuses on developing skills like critical thinking over static knowledge. Learning needs to move beyond the classroom and integrate formal and informal spaces.
Learning in a networked world
This document discusses the changing nature of learning in a networked world. It notes that learning is now anytime, anywhere, and done by anyone using mobile devices. Learning is networked, global, collaborative, self-directed, and authentic.

The new redesigned logo featured the national bird peacock in an elegant font to depict Indian culture and uniqueness for foreign visitors.
Tranquil Homes
The document provides information about Tranquil Homes, a real estate developer established in 1982 with over 3 decades of experience in projects across Mumbai. It discusses the company's vision, mission, objectives as well as its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats in a SWOT analysis.

The document discusses Tata Power's industry analysis, company background, supply chain, financial review, SWOT analysis, and sustainability initiatives. It notes that Tata Power has a long history in India dating back to its first power plant in 1915. The financial review shows net revenues of Rs. 18,854 crore in 2009 and Rs. 19,348 crore in 2010. The SWOT analysis identifies strengths in its brand and renewable initiatives, and weaknesses in coal dependence and skills gaps.
Walmart
Walmart has dominated the retail industry for decades due to its massive scale of operations and low prices. However, its continued dominance faces threats from legislation targeting its business practices and a tarnished brand image from critics arguing it harms local communities and workers. While Walmart's efficient operations are currently successful, maintaining this efficiency without harming stakeholders or breaking laws will be challenging barriers for the company to overcome if it wants to ensure its dominance continues long-term.
Case 7
The joint venture between GM and Daewoo Motors faced problems and ultimately dissolved. Both companies objectives of entering new markets and reducing costs were not achieved due to quality issues, strikes, and a failure to share technology. While Daewoo wanted to export using GM's brand, GM did not allow expansion. After buying Daewoo years later, GM rebranding under Chevrolet proved a smarter strategy.
Buyology
This document summarizes a chapter from the book "Buyology" about a large neuromarketing study on cigarette smokers. The study used fMRI scans to examine the brain activity of over 2,000 smokers from several countries in response to graphic warning labels on cigarette packs. The results showed that the warning labels had no effect on suppressing smokers' cravings, suggesting that government anti-smoking campaigns investing billions in such labels have been ineffective.
Zara IT Case
Zara follows a vertically integrated business model with an emphasis on speed, flexibility and decentralization to quickly respond to fashion trends, linking customer demand directly to manufacturing and distribution within 3 weeks. While Zara's current DOS-based POS system is simple and cost-effective, the company is considering upgrading to a new system to enable inter-connected stores, real-time data insights and support continued international expansion across over 500 stores globally. The upgrade would require significant one-time costs but is expected to increase operational efficiencies through improved inventory management and analytics.
