Running a virtual business
1 JANUARY 2003
Students from a Border high school are continuing to top groups in an online game for high school business students. Four teams from Wodonga Senior Secondary College are in the top three positions in three pools of the Game On competition being run by Charles Sturt University’s Faculty of Business. More than 560 regional high school students from high schools in Albury-Wodonga, central west NSW, Port Macquarie and the Riverina are pitting their business skills against each other in the virtual competition until Friday 7 September. Dr Abhishek Dwivedi, Lecturer in CSU’s School of Management and Marketing based in Albury-Wodonga, said, “The simulation is largely based on the Stage 6 Business Studies Syllabus in NSW. The Year 10 and 11 students at 29 regional schools are divided into 193 teams. In running their businesses, which are based on the automobile industry, they need to make decisions on human resources, marketing, operations and finance in each of the competition’s eight rounds.”
