In partnership with the Institute of Technology in Aberdeen, the Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE) has pioneered the development of a range of highly sophisticated simulation games and case studies based on realistic engineering scenarios for use in secondary and higher education and industrial training. The initial involvement of IEE in…

Presents a six-day lesson in which two different classes role play the U.S. House and U.S. Senate to simulate the bicameral nature of the U.S. government. Students use actual federal or state legislation or write their own bills, and then work through the process of passing them into law or rejecting them. (GEA)

In this simulation, secondary students explore the potentials for cooperation and conflict that have existed in relation to control of the seas. Through playing roles of decision makers of various nations, students learn about issues and positions involved in exploiting the wealth of th sea, including minerals, oil, and fish. (RM)
