Simulation-Based Learning

Learning is intrinsic to simulation, as it allows, e.g., scientists to learn new aspects of natural and artificial systems, engineers to design new products and processes, and organizations to learn how to adapt to a changing environment. It is indeed this link with learning that differentiates simulation from other information- and knowledge technologies. Applications such as wikis, blogs, or social networks let users find information, create content, and share ideas and experiences. They can also foster learning in various ways and have therefore become taken center stage with teachers and students. Compared to these highly popular tools, however, simulation is more intimately linked to the human capacity to reason, make predictions, imagine alternative actions, and solve problems.
