Teaching Supply Chain Management: A Proposal for Future Research on Using Real World Sports and Other Analogies
Abstract
Teaching supply chain management (SCM) to undergraduates that are not Supply Chain Management majors can be difficult. This often is the case when teaching a business school core course that all majors must take. The motivation of these non-SCM students is sometimes just to pass and move on to their major course of study. Using a number of cases and examples from the real world that the students can relate to may help increase attention and learning. The increased interest level may give students a better understanding of supply chains. This article discusses approaches to teaching the core course with real world applicability, and suggests future research to examine the possible benefits.
