5. Discussion and conclusions
In this paper, we presented an innovative pedagogical approach (ERPSim) using PBL to teach operations
management in the context of integrated information systems that is authentic, ill-structured, student-
centered, and facilitator-driven. The realism of the ERPSim approach brings technology, operations man-
agement, and strategy together in one forum for learning.

ERPsim Website :
One of the key changes
is the navigation.
All nodes now have a menu, and are
either linked to one of the four main
sections, or the Learning Portal.
The navigation within the Learning
Portal has also been improved, where
the content can either be accessed by
content type or by game.
