Researchers and employers both herald the importance of quantitative literacy among undergraduates in business schools. Despite this, the ability to effectively train students in quantitative literacy is difficult due to its multi-disciplinary nature, everchanging accreditation recommendations, and administrative restrictions faced by today's business schools. In this paper, we explore the use of the ScrimmageSIMTM simulation in a Midwestern U.S. business school across two semesters one year apart. We demonstrate qualitatively via student comments and quantitatively via course evaluations the value of this simulation in increasing the quantitative literacy of undergraduate business students.
