Abstract:The paper demonstrates and evaluates the effectiveness of a blended learning approach to create a meaningful learning environment. We use the term blended learning approach in this paper to refer to the use of multiple or hybrid instructional methods that emphasize the role of learners as contributors to the learning process rather than recipients of learning. Contribution to learning is attained by using in class gaming as pathways that ensure active involvement of learners. Using a blended learning approach is important in order to be able to address different learning styles of the target group. The approach was also important in order to be able to demonstrate different types of challenges, issues and competences needed in project management. Student evaluations of the course confirmed that the use of multiple learning methods and, in particular, in class gaming was beneficial and contributed to a meaningful learning experience.

“…About a decade ago, “teaching and learning was identified as a major theme in the debate on re‐thinking project management” (Ojiako, Ashleigh, Chipulu, & Maguire, , p. 268). There is an abundance of position papers discussing the importance of project management training (e.g., Loo, ; Mann, ) that use case studies or survey‐based needs analysis to determine training content (e.g., Edum‐Fotwe & McCaffer, ; Ojiako et al, ; Ramazani & Jergeas, ); that propose conceptual models of learning (e.g., Bredillet, ); or that describe programs or teaching methods (e.g., Stoyan, ). Studies that empirically test project management training efficacy, however, are rare.…”

The article, on the basis of generalizing the experience of successful and, in part, unsuccessful activities of people in different sphere of activities, suggests to review the following five factors: 1) rapidity of actions; 2) consistency of actions; 3) production of creative ideas; 4) activity of business contacts; 5) flexibility of activity. Let's begin by viewing of first four factors. The article shows that at the beginning «the intellectual potential» is accumulated as «business activity». At this, the schedule serves as «the transition bridge» between the accumulated potential and business activity. Factors listed are suggested to be correlated in the following manner: creative ideas belong to the potential and the system of actions to the «schedule». Flexibility of activity is the quality that stands over them. This is the factor that regulates first four factors as it includes or excludes them out the participation in the process at the necessary moment.
