Abstract:
The author explores the theory of simulations explains current trends in instructional theory, digital media, and change management discusses the impact on instructional and simulation development design provides an integrated simulation development and implementation model and provides recommendations for practitioners who are ready to cross the threshold of integrating software-based simulations into their learning environment. Current trends of pervasive computations, contextual fidelity, increasing demand for flexible constructive learning environments, and improved affordability suggest that digital simulations are likely to play a larger role in mainstream education and learning in the 21st century.
