Abstract:
The PubsTrac simulator is a new tool for teaching project management in a technical publishing context. It takes the form of a board game in which
one or more people each manage one or more
projects. Each project must progress through the
many steps that make up a typical technical
publication development project, and must deal
with such problems as bad reviews, product
redesigns, sick employees, and resource overloads.
In this workshop, participants will actually
experience PubsTrac in small groups.
