ADVANTAGES OF USING SIMULATIONS

Simulations enable a more modern and effective teaching method. Better than case studies or traditional lectures, simulators call for decision-making and applied knowledge from the students.

There is abundant academic research that shows:

• The use of simulations increases understanding and retention. But when new information is not applied, 75% is forgotten in less than a week.
• Simulations significantly increase student satisfaction.
• Simulations are pedagogically superior to a regular class discussion or a case analysis, putting students at the forefront of their own decision-making.
• Simulations not only favor the acquisition of technical skills, but also promote the development of soft skills such as teamwork and task coordination.
• Simulations increase course engagement by modeling a realistic business competition.
