This article describes a simulation game used in a juvenile correctional facility that adapts to the varied "intake" stages of the students and provides practical experience in consumer education. (JH)

This paper describes a study which compared the effects of teaching guidance with and without a simulation experience. (JA)

A recent teacher-education project was designed to provide a greater variety of teaching tools for both preservice and/or in-service teacher-coordinators. The project focused on expanding the type of training materials to include decision-making processes--mainly through the use of simulated cases, thus filling the gap between cognitive theory and…

A methodology of game evaluation is developed to include both player performance and results of a written questionnaire. Using data of player performance, a model of the learning process provides results which match very well conclusions drawn from the questionnaire, hence providing considerable justification for the approach taken.

Describes an inservice teacher education workshop using local history for reading instruction. (RB)

This article explains the rationale, development, and use of a simulation approach to training counselors in which videotaped vignettes of critical incidents that occur in the course of establishing and maintaining a helping relationship are presented to trainees as stimuli. (Author)

The author uses a fictitious, but ever-so-real, situation to demonstrate the complexity of administration today in what was once a simple Extension setting. (Editor)

A simulation of the U.S. Supreme Court procedures and activities, designed to maximize gains in the areas of teaching, research, prediction, and motivation, is described. Instructions given for implementing the Temple University model in the classroom include suggested variations for particular situations. (SM)

Article discusses several major error syndromes associated with current instructional development activities. (Author)

Role playing as a tool for counselors is discussed in terms of rationale and technical use. (BY)

Provides rationale for using computer simulations and a description of several simulated science experiments. (CP)

A simulated spaceship instrument panel with functional parts is used to implement the study of the universe. (Author/CP)
