Important considerations in selecting components of a model for a simulation game are (1) that each of the selected components must function in relation to the others, and (2) the planned impact of components in the context of the game. (Author)

Introduces the concept of human simulators, identifies their educational advantages, and describes how the teacher can design and implement this simulation strategy. A model for the development of a human simulator is also presented. (RAO)

A computer model designed to provide administrators faced with the problem of meeting demands from many quarters for the available space" with information about the effects of changes in space availability is described. (Author/AA)

The development of anasynthesis--the process of analysis, synthesis, modeling, and simulation--as applied to decision making and problem solving in education and training is explored, and its future with regard to education is discussed. (RAO)

This investigation of the effect of stimulus environment design on the probability of desired attitude learning provides a rationale for attitudes as reinforcement or reward values and discusses the roles of human models, group discussion, simulation, visual and verbal mediations of experiences, frequency of exposure, media selection, and learning…

Discusses ways to teach learning systems design. Elements in the design process are considered, including learning in context, modeling of expert thought processes, and reflection; the use of roleplays, simulations, and case studies is explored; and development and testing of a prototype application consisting of videotaped interviews with an…
