Training Simulation - Trends & Issues - Modeling & Simulation in Training

This book outlines and describes a Modeling and Simulation project completed in the 2010 class of Old Dominion Universities' Occupational and Technical Studies in Education class, Issues in Training, Modeling and Simulation class. The assignment was to create a Simulation Lesson Design.

The book showcases the assignment (proposal) for an instructional lesson that utilized simulation in support of a specific training or educational goal or objective. Using lectures in the classroom, assigned readings, and literature reviews, the following lesson plan was developed as the final project in the class. Additionally, this book includes annotations and resources to gain more in-depth understanding of the principal and the project.
