Abrandt Dahlgren, Madeleine; Fenwick, Tara; Hopwood, Nick – Teaching in Higher Education, 2016
Despite the widespread interest in using and researching simulation in higher education, little discussion has yet to address a key pedagogical concern: difficulty. A "sociomaterial" view of learning, explained in this paper, goes beyond cognitive considerations to highlight dimensions of material, situational, representational and…
