Learning Objectives
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
The course aims to teach the basic functions related to the use of Enterprise Resource Planning software through the gamification approach.
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
Participants will learn how to collect and analyse data available on an Enterprise Resource Planning system and create their business strategy on the basis of the data.
APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
Participants will learn the basic functions of Enterprise Resource Planning software necessary for managing sales, procurement and production processes.
MAKING JUDGEMENTS:
Students will have to define their strategy in the individual simulations based on the data made available in the din Enterprise Resource Planning software platform.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS:
The simulations will be carried out in groups and students must be able to exchange information and content related to the use of the software with each other.
LEARNING SKILLS:
Participants will be asked to use Enterprise Resource Planning software and to be able to create excel reports necessary for defining the strategy in the simulation game

Teaching methods
The first half of the course (Iessons 1, 2, and 3) are face-to-face lectures that will take place at the school of Economics.
Game simulation are online on the SAP platform and students may connect on remote from the unviersity or from their home.

Exam Rules
Assessment will be based on the student’s ability to apply the concepts covered in the course through the use of SAP S4/Hana software.During the gaming sessions, students will be required to perform specific activities within the system; these will be recorded and monitored by the instructor in order to verify their actual ability to implement, within the system, the concepts learned during the initial lectures.At the end of the course, participants are expected to be able to use the main SAP S4/Hana commands and to critically analyze the data available within the ERP system.In addition, for each gaming session, students will be required to upload to the Teams platform—within one week of the session—a document containing the business process design used in the simulation as well as a SWOT analysis.
Attendance Rules
Minimum attendance requirement is the 80% of the overall number of hours scheduled for the course.
