AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Barbara J. Cloninger for the degree of Master of Science in Foods and Nutrition presented on May !> 1986. Title:
Food Item Inventory Instructional Simulation Using Microcomputers
Abstract approved: Ann M. Messersmith, Ph.D., R.D.
The purpose of the research project was to teach the management of perpetual and periodic inventory systems to university students in the field of food systems management through the use of a microcomputer software program developed for this purpose.
The objective
of the study was to determine the classroom simulation's effectiveness in enhancing students' understanding of inventory systems management. The population sample consisted of 68 students enrolled in a senior level food systems management course at Oregon State University. Simple random sampling was used to divide the population sample into two groups:
an experimental group and a control group.
All the
participants completed a pretest to measure existing knowledge of inventory management concepts.
This was followed by two fifty-minute
classroom educational modules on the management of perpetual and periodic inventory systems in foodservice facilities.
The members
of the experimental group participated in using the microcomputer simulation program of food item inventory systems after the classroom
modules.
All the participants of the experimental and control groups
completed a posttest approximately three weeks after the pretest. The difference in pretest mean scores between the experimental and control groups was not significant (P
