Description
Summary:This paper proposes and tests a model of performance evaluation in an exercise of management simulation in the academic environment taking into account the indicators identified by the ones involved in the process, i.e., professor and students. For the construction of the model the Multiple Criteria Decision Aid Constructivist (MCDA-C) method was used in a management simulation course. Seventeen (17) criteria were identified in order to be used for performance evaluation in the simulation. The methodology demonstrated what would be considered in such criteria and their relative importance. The evaluation model was created and tested in the same class that conceived it. As a result, the application of the exercise of management simulation pointed to a global performance of 88 points out of 100, a number considered as a good score by the professor. In the model, not only traditional evaluation criteria of students and teams was involved, but also the characteristics of the professor, the students, the simulator and the simulated environment.
