MET Institute of Management in its constant endeavor to develop business leaders to succeed in the competitive and dynamic business world, adopts teaching pedagogies using tools and technology and exposing students to experiential learning across management courses taught. Innovative teaching pedagogies are learner-centric and interdisciplinary in nature equipping students with the latest knowledge, skills and growth mindset to help thrive in a rapidly changing global economy.
Simulation Games
To help facilitate experiential learning and build analytical skills, faculty members use the aid of simulation
games along with the traditional lecture delivery. Management simulations are an extension of the case based
learning methodology. By simulating real-world business scenarios, students are able to correlate theoretical
knowledge to practical situations and develop a deeper understanding of management concepts. These games provide a
hands-on experience that foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making skills in students of
management education.

Usage of Management Tools
Visual tools help teachers establish, explain, connect, and associate ideas and concepts to make the process of
learning more interesting, enjoyable, and effective. There are initiatives taken by faculty as per their subject.
For Entrepreneurship Management subject students are being told to make a Business Model Canvas. The Business Model
Canvas is one of many useful tools to design, evolve and test products and services business models. It is a visual
representation of the 9 key building blocks that form the foundations of every successful business. It’s a blueprint
to help entrepreneurs invent, design, and build models with a more systematic approach. Once the Business Model
Canvas is ready students display that in the classroom with the usage of flip charts.
Similarly, for the subject OB & HRM students are being encouraged describe the culture of the organizations
through the display of chart paper wherein they display through the blocks or tables the impact of culture on
individuals. Also for subjects like Economics & Business Environment students are expected to make a Factsheets
