In order to address this challenge, we have developed and validated a new multimedia, team-based simulation, EduSynergy, which provides a rich, realistic experience of a change management project in a university setting, including individual behaviors, group dynamics and cultural factors. Our quantitative research shows a significant measurable increase in players' understanding of change management.| Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
