End of The Road



The MBA Second Life exercise ended. Ended up a close run between two groups, both making sensible decisions. The third group slowly slipped behind, making some strange decisions, so not sure how educational this has been. Two groups getting marks of 84 and one getting 27: no tendency for group marks to regress towards the mean here! It will be interesting to read the students' reflections on the exercise. The exercise was badly affected by the difficulties of getting the Second Life viewer working on the Business School's pcs now that they have been upgraded to Windows 7. Just ran in to Frank Lassard who suggested that I should have used the Phoenix viewer instead as education had similar problems, so hopefully the problem will be sorted when the exercise is used for an honours course after Christmas.
