[AISWorld] New academic simulation game to teach data science (in partnership with SAS)

[pierre-majorique leger]

Greetings from the ERPsim Lab of HEC Montreal!

I am happy to inform you that we have developed a new academic simulation game, called Cortex, in partnership with SAS. This new game offers a scenario-based learning experience to cater the needs of IS professors who are expected to teach a Data Science course. For more info :   https://erpsim.hec.ca/en/cortex.

Our team has been invited to present this new simulation game at SAS Global Forum 2020 in Washington, D.C. from March 29th to April 1st. During the conference, faculty members will have the opportunity to participate in a hands-on demo of Cortex by attending one of our two learning labs. Titled “Cortex Analytics Simulation”, the hands-on sessions are scheduled as follows:

2:30 PM to 4:15 PM on March 30 (Monday), and 3:00 PM to 4:45 PM on March 31 (Tuesday).

To register for the SAS Global Forum 2020 conference: https://www.sas.com/en_us/events/sas-global-forum/attend/registration-details.html. After registering, please add “Cortex Analytics Simulation” to your agenda through the mobile app !

Please feel free to share this with your colleagues, who are attending SASGF 2020 and you think could benefit from experiencing the game.

We are looking forward to meeting you at the event in Washington!

Best,

Prof. Pierre-Majorique Léger, Ph.D.
