Abstract

Over the past 20 years, participation in fantasy football has increased dramatically. During this timeframe, many universities have encouraged instructors to diminish the importance of the traditional "lecture format" in the classroom. Many institutions have begun to insist that the most effective teaching involves active student participation rather than one-way communication (Rocca 2010). This paper discusses the implementation of a semester-long fantasy football exercise that is primarily designed to require students to demonstrate their understanding of strategic management and basic economic principles by mandating they apply those principles to situations such as an auction draft and labor disputes.
