Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community
Good overview of the role simulations can play in learning, including an account of what topics are best taught using simulations - areas where judgement skills, not facts, need to be emphasized. The author also describes features of successful simulations, including feedback and complexity. Simulations haven't been widely used, argues the author because of both technical barriers and a misunderstanding of where they should be applied. Via elearnspace.
