  2. Simulation- imitation or enactment • Software- the programs used to direct the operation of a computer, as well as documentation giving instructions on how to use them • Simulation Software-Computer software that represents real world situations and experiences

  3. Types of Simulation Software • Education- Subject areas • Agriculture • Business • Communications • Defense • Health • Manufacturing • Traffic • Games http://www.flickr.com/photos/david_reverchon/ by David Reverchon

  4. Types of Simulation Software • Work places- • Industrial • Business • Communications • Distribution • Manufacturing • Packing • Repair • engines http://www.flickr.com/photos/ensight/ by Darin Mckinnis

  5. Advantages • Saves money • Fast • Controlled • Interactive • Demonstrative http://www.flickr.com/photos/31274959@N08/ by Siemens PLM Software

  6. Disadvantages • Limited • Not physical • Not hands on • Learning how to use it • Technical problems

  7. Simulation “The emphasis in simulation is often on the application and integration of knowledge, skills, and critical thinking.” (Carol A. Rauen)

  8. Simulation “Unlike a classroom setting or a paper-and-pencil test, simulation allows learners to function in an environment that is as close as possible to an actual clinical situation and provides them an opportunity to "think on their feet, not in their seat.”” (Carol A. Rauen)

  9. Simulation Software • Not as popular, but on the rise • No dominating company • Can find it from many different companies • Buying in your specific content area • http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/k-12/airplane/hitmod.html
