Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of training platforms, and more specifically, to an intelligent sand table interactive training platform. Background Technology

[0002] In accounting and business administration programs at universities across China, business management simulations are playing an increasingly important role in curriculum design, with more and more institutions using them to cultivate students' comprehensive and practical abilities. The greatest advantages of simulation-based teaching are its intuitiveness and interactivity. During the learning process, students collaboratively manage a company, simulating core tasks in various management activities related to personnel, finance, materials, production, supply, and sales. This allows them to learn and train the skills applicable to real-world business management.

[0003] There are two main types of existing sand table models. The first type is the handmade sand table, which resembles a giant chessboard and uses a frame to present the core business processes of a company. Students place cards and coins. Its advantages are strong collaboration and intuitive operation. Its disadvantages are that there are no guidance or restrictions on the arrangement of the table, the data is not intuitive, and it is difficult to calculate value and balance sheet.

[0004] The second type is the electronic sand table, which integrates computer software. Students input data and the computer completes the calculations. The advantage is that the calculations are time-saving, but the disadvantages are poor collaboration and operability. Students only communicate with each other based on pure data, making it difficult to gain a comprehensive understanding of the enterprise. Utility Model Content
