I’ll be making an online presentation about the fundamental differences between games and simulation at 11:00 AM IST on 24th April, 2010. The presentation is meant for beginners, and will help them draw lines between simulations and games from a learning and learner experience perspective. See you on Saturday.

If you are familiar with Adobe Captivate then you are familiar with "Assesment Simulations." I love assessment simulations because they require the learner to do the clicking rather than just viewing a screen recording of the process. I am on a deep dive for ideas of how to simulate the right click in a captivate simulation.

Games (and simulations) will become integral part of workplace learning. Tools like thinking worlds are great for quickly creating 3D based decision simulations (or even simple 3D games). This suggests that LMS systems are evolving to accommodate newer tools and techniques, as they should.
