2. Introduction : Simulation
A simulation of a system is the operation of a model. The model can be
reconfigured, experimented, can be studied and properties concerning the
behavior of the actual system can be identified.
Immitation of the operation of a real-world process or system over
time.(Mostly use tool or software-STELLA)
Function:
To create a model which can represent a system.
To make an experiment for understand behavior of system or evaluate
different strategies.
To observe events, processes either properties or behaviors about system
with model.
6. FUNCTIONS OF SIMULATION IN
FUTURE LEARNING.
• Can be used to compress a time frame, a simulation model run
on a computer system can be used to investigate quickly the
effects of a change in a real life situation that take place over
several years.
• Can be used to study complex systems that would otherwise be
difficult to investigate.
7. • Can be used in geoscience or medical field to investigate the
effect of changes without producing a physical prototype.
(e.g: WILSIM-GC and CardioSim)
• Can be used to investigate situation that would be dangerous in
real life.
8. DISADVANTAGES OF COMPUTER
SIMULATIONS
• We have a poor understanding of how some physical systems
work. For this reason it has not been possible to create
simulations that can accurately predict the occurrence and effects
of earthquakes and tsunami.
• Complex simulations can require the use of a computer system
with a fast processor and large amounts of memory
9. CONCLUSION
• Computer simulations can bring many benefits in teaching and
learning but at the same time, it also has some disadvantages.
• When using computer simulations, teachers have to explain to the
students about how the data is collected to obtain results.
