Simulation and Other Tools to Enhance Student Learning

Abstract

Simulations in various forms have been observed to be promising vehicles to enhance and stimulate student interest and learning. Since students exhibit different learning styles, and needs, they might react differently to simulation experiences. at the same time the conditions for application of simulations might be different for distance students compared to students in a traditional on-campus classroom protocol. the authors discuss the various decisions associated with the design and construction of appropriate learning environments based on their experience with a broad range of courses and simulation tools in Engineering Management. the efficacy of these various approaches is assessed by student surveys and instructor observations with respect to student learning styles and classroom protocols.
