Aqlan, Faisal; Zhao, Richard – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
Contribution: This article discusses the use of manufacturing simulation games to study collaborative problem-solving skills in engineering students. The simulation represents the mass production paradigm in which large quantities of identical products are produced. Empirical data is collected from the simulation to evaluate the skills engineering…

Jiau, H. C.; Chen, J. C.; Ssu, Kuo-Feng – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2009
Game-based assignments typically form an integral component of computer programming courses. The effectiveness of the assignments in motivating students to carry out repetitive programming tasks is somewhat limited since their outcomes are invariably limited to a simple win or loss scenario. Accordingly, this paper develops a simulation…

Guevara-Cedeno, J. Y.; Palma-Behnke, R.; Uribe, R. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
In the field of electricity markets, the development of training tools for engineers has been extremely useful. A novel experimental economics approach based on a computational Web platform of an electricity market is proposed here for the practical teaching of electrical engineering students. The approach is designed to diminish the gap that…
