Igor Kotlyar; Noel J. Pearse; Joe Krasman – Discover Education, 2024
AI-based simulations for educational and assessment purposes are gaining global recognition. Informed by cultural comparison research, this study investigates cross-country variations in users' utilization and perceptions of a simulation-based assessment. Specifically, we conducted a comparative analysis between a sample of South African and…

Masturzi, Elio R. – 1986
Based on experience and research findings, this paper discusses the advantages of using an integrated computer based teaching unit consisting of a textbook, educational software, and applications software. It is suggested that the textbook should provide basic background material on the topic, the courseware should be used for simulation, and the…
