Game-based dynamic simulations supporting technical education and training
نویسندگان
چکیده
Educational games may improve learning by taking advantage of the new knowledge and skills of today’s students obtained from extensive use of interactive games. This paper describes how interactive dynamic simulators of advanced technical systems and phenomena can be shaped and adapted as games and competitions supporting technical education and training. Some selected examples at different educational levels are shown, from vocational training to university level courses. The potential benefit and perceived learning effect of this approach is also described and underpinned from comprehensive user

متن کاملImproving understanding, learning, and performances of novices in dynamic managerial simulation games : A Gradual-Increase-In-Complexity Approach
Simulations are increasingly used in training and education because of their success and their advantages as a learning method. However, it has also been observed that the dynamic complexity of simulations creates learning difficulties, and that performance tends to plateau quickly at a level well below benchmark performance. To overcome this difficulty, a gradual-increase-in-complexity approac...
