A survey of soft skill simulation authoring tools

Soft skill simulations are a convenient and efficient means of delivering engaging educational experiences [1]. Typically these simulations combine hypertext and media files to create a realistic model of real world social situations. However the key impediment to online simulations being adopted as a mainstream approach to teaching soft skills is the complexity involved in their authoring. This paper presents a state of the art survey of existing authoring tools used to compose online soft skill simulations.
