ABSTRACT
Figure 9.1 Relationships between games and simulations used in education and training
Some We also discussed several examples of exercises which involve the use of case examples study materials and the adoption of predetermined roles. These examples included: for analysis * ^ n interactive' case study used to develop the skills of front-end analysis in
training and development professionals. * The use of 'microteaching' in teacher training, in which the trainees act out
carefully defined roles, to practise specific teaching skills. * The simulation-game of I D I O T S , in which training personnel take on the
