EdTech: Simulation
Simulation refers to creating a model of an activity, environment or situation which reproduces the characteristics of real-life events and delivers authentic responses to the learner’s choices and actions. The consequences of error in decision-making, judgment, manual or cognitive skills can be shown in a safe, controlled environment – and repeated with different scenarios to build and reinforce learning.
