Engage Modern Learners

Modern learners are the most technologically sophisticated in all of history. We have access to the greatest collection of human knowledge ever assembled, and we're inundated with a never-ending flood of information crafted to grab our attention — mobile apps using game mechanics to encourage ceaseless engagement, custom tailored marketing coming at us from every angle, a 24-hour news cycle... all vying for our precious attention.

Our teaching tools need to be fast-paced, engaging and affordable -- see academic pricing. We need to deliver information the way learners are accustomed to receiving it. To engage today's students, we need a new approach.

Teaching Real World Supply Chain Management

Easily and accurately model any supply chain by defining just four entities: products; facilities; vehicles; and routes. Place them on a digital map, and simulate their interactions at the click of a button. See how well a supply chain works and keep improving it. It's so simple and fun it could be a game... but it's a serious game. What works in the simulations also works in the real world. SCM Globe teaches real supply chain skills. Students demonstrate their proficiency by solving problems in highly realistic simulations.

Everything students need to get started is in the Online Guide. We support instructors with: Instructor Manual and course syllabus examples; step-by-step case study guides; lecture slides; and simulation exercises. We provide personal online training to help instructors come up to speed quickly.

There is an online library of case studies exploring different aspects of supply chain management and operations. Cases become progressively more challenging. They explore: Commercial Supply Chains; Humanitarian Supply Chains; and Military Logistics.

For people new to SCM Globe, we recommend starting with the Cincinnati Seasonings case study.
