The document recommends that learners spend at least 50% of their time, and ideally 90%, engaged in "do" activities like student-content, student-student, and student-instructor interactions. It notes that developing games and simulations can be difficult, time-consuming, and expensive, and suggests using existing games or a design team for assistance. Finally, it prompts the reader to brainstorm practice, discovery, and game/simulation activity examples for their online course aligned with objectives.

1. As a rule, learners should spend a minimum of 50% of their time in do activities 90% would be better! Practice Discovery Games & Simulations

2. Do-type activities often include student to content , student to student, and student to instructor interaction. Practice Discovery Games & Simulations

8. Developing games and simulations are difficult, time consuming and expensive. Use different program applications to create games (e.g. StudyMate). Use games and simulations that have already been created (e.g. MyITLab). Use a design team to help you design, plan, specify and produce your game or simulation.
