Abstract(s)
Everyday accounting and management teachers face the challenge of creating learning environments
that motivate students. This chapter describes the Business Simulation (BS) experience that has taken
place at the Polytechnic Institute of Porto, Institute of Accounting and Administration (IPP/ISCAP). The
chapter presents students’ perceptions about the course and the teaching/learning approach. The results
show that pedagogical methods used (competency-oriented), generic competencies (cooperation and
group work), and interpersonal skills (organisational and communication skills) are relevant for future
accounting professionals. In addition, positive remarks and possible constraints based on observation,
staff meetings, and past research are reported. The chapter concludes with some recommendations from
the project implementation
