Online courses can be boring Simulation and games engage, motivate and increase learners attention span. In one project learners sneaked into the training center after hours to play the simulation. Addresses the interests of new members of the workforce. Recognizes “affective” component to learning. Reinforces thinking fast and quick Why Games and Simulations?
Simulation Knowledge Race Time I created this game to demonstrate that interesting learning activities and end of module reviews can be created with PowerPoint. Once you are ready, click on the horse to begin the game! Do you have what it takes to win the race, elearning Instruction Design Attendees? Click to Start
Time Clock Simulation Knowledge Race Time 30 Rules: Click on your horse to start. You have 30 seconds to select an answer to the question. If you get it right, you advance. If you get it wrong, I advance. Whoever gets to the finish line first wins. Click to Start Finish Line
Question The demand for eLearning simulations is expected to grow from $300 million to X billion by 2011. Time Clock 5 10 0 20 30 25 39 Billion 67 Billion 97 Billion Continue 25 Billion You timed out. The correct answer was 67 Billion. Click Continue. Finish Line
Simulation Knowledge Race Time Good Job!!! Hope you liked the game.
