Peer reviewedPeacock, Derek – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 1981
Describes the use of a two-level simulation in a college-level biology course. Students simulated the research process (including grant applications, theory formation, experiments, and symposium presentation) using an ecology simulation for their data base. (AM)

Peer reviewedSherwood, Robert D.; Hasselbring, Ted – Computers in the Schools, 1986
Describes a study focusing on different presentation methods (pairs of students; entire class; and noncomputer list game-type setting) of a computer-based science simulation to sixth-grade students to determine the most beneficial method for student achievement. Results indicate large group instruction is slightly more beneficial. (MBR)
