After playing the simulation, students will generate a short debrief summary that responds to the following assignment questions:

1. Let's revisit your ideas about how decision parameters (target scope, team size, team skill level, amount of outsourcing, target completion data, overtime allowed, time in meetings, number of prototypes) affect project outcomes (task completed, cost incurred, productivity, new problems discovered, project completion date) and team attributes (morale, stress level, rates of mistakes). How have your ideas about these causal relationships changed? How confident are you now in your hypotheses about them?
2. What strategies work for managing projects? What strategies work when uncertainty is low or high? What strategies work when objectives are realistic or not?
