Enhancing Student Learning Outcomes with Simulation-based Pedagogies

Abstract

This poster reports on an Australian Government Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT) project to assist business educators to embed simulations into the curriculum. The purpose of this project was to gather and disseminate good practice in the design of pedagogy and assessment in simulation-based units in business. Data collection included interviews with educators and decision makers, student focus groups and surveys. The project included the development of an online toolkit consisting of case studies, a good practice guide and a simulation learning barometer. A ‘framework for simulation-based pedagogy’ is presented as a key outcome of the project.
