Abstract

SIMULATION CONSTRUCTION KIT gives the secondary teacher one more way of involving students in class projects, this time in developing computer-based simulation programs.

Teachers using the process approach will find this package a helpful new tool. It is probably best for students who can work in small groups. They will need to investigate all options of an issue thoroughly in order to do branching.
