The document presents a presentation on simulation and role play in education, emphasizing their importance in developing decision-making and problem-solving skills among students. It outlines the principles, advantages, and disadvantages of both methods, highlighting how simulation bridges theory and practice while role play enhances communication and group problem-solving abilities. Ultimately, the document concludes that these techniques significantly contribute to the training of competent teachers by building confidence and practical skills.

4. INTRODUCTION
• A number of techniques are being used
currently in India as well as in other countries.
The simulated social skill is one of clime.
Simulation-based education should not be an
extra-ordinary activity, but must be grounded
in the ways learner performance is evaluated,
and should be built into learners’ normal
training schedule.

5. DEFINITION
• The true value of simulation lies in its ability
to offer experiences throughout the educational
process that provides students with
opportunities for repetition, pattern
recognition, and faster decision making.”
-Doyle & Leighton, 2010

6. PURPOSE
• To helps students practice decision making and
problem solving skills.
• To develop human interaction abilities in a
controlled and safes settings.
• To support innovative teaching strategies
• To overcome faculty and preceptor shortages
and lack of clinical sites

7. PRINCIPLES
• It Should be driven by the educational
goal/objective
• It Should match the level of the student
• The higher the realism, the more effective it is
in engaging the student
• Strengths and Limitations of Different Types
of Simulation

9. OBJECTIVES
• Modifying student behavior.
• Motivating learners.
• Bringing about changes in attitudes.
• Understanding one’s role properly
• Realizing others role and responsibilities.
• Helping students to assume emerging role.

11. USES
• To acquaint the pupil teachers with the
classroom manners before they actually fare
the classroom situation.
• To enable them to modify their teaching
behavior as a result of suggestions given by the
observer.
• To develop self – confidence in beginners.
• To help in developing social skill of teaching.

12. ADVANTAGE
• Simulation helps to build confidence in the
student teacher.
• Simulation bridges the gulf between the theory
and practice.
• Simulation enables the learner to learn directly
from experience.
• Simulation promotes a high level of critical
thanking.
• Simulation technique motivates students by
making real-life situations exciting and
interesting.

13. DISADVANTAGE
• Often expensive and time consuming to
develop
• An invalid model may result with confidence
in wrong results

14. LIMITATION
• It is quite possible that during an exercise the
observer may record incorrectly.
• The most common error in serious skill
training is the misconception that adults can
play the role of pupils.
• Simulation attempts to portray real situation
in a simple way and which is very different.

16. INTRODUCTION
• Role play is educational methods in which
people spontaneously act out problems of
human relations and analyze the enactment
with the help of other role players and
observers. Role playing is a learning structure
that allows students to immediately apply
content as they are put in the role of a decision
maker who must make a decision regarding a
policy, resource allocation, or some other
outcome.

17. DEFINITION
“Role playing is a discussion technique that
makes possible to get maximum participation
of a group through acting out an example of
some problem or idea under discussion.”
Or
Role playing ‘as the changing of one’s
behaviour to fulfil a social role’.
- Oxford English Dictionary

18. VALUES
• The actor really tries to feel the part of the
character he is portraying and put himself in that
person’s situation.
• Adopting simulation techniques to solve problem.
• It is enjoyed by people who do it.
• It does not need equipment.
• It is a way of presenting human relations
problems, the students can experiment with
behaviour , make mistakes and try new skills.

19. PURPOSE
1. Role playing helps the students
• Develop skill in group problem solving.
• Develop ability to observe and analyze situations.
2. Role playing helps the teacher
• Note the individual student need by observing an
analyzing her needs in a simulated real life
situation.

20. PRINCIPLES
• Based on the philosophy.
• Should be flexible.
• Clarify our understanding of each other’s
meanings.
• Should be stimulant to think and should not be an
escape from discipline.
• Require rehearsal
• Should be able to analyse and evaluate.
• Should be done for brief period.

21. ADVANTAGES
 For students:-
• Develop communication skills, leadership,
interviewing skills&
• Social interaction.
• Develop sensitivity to another’s
 For teacher:-
• Note the individual student’s ability.
• Feeling by having the opportunity to put
oneself in another’s place.

22. DISADVANTAGES
• Time consuming process
• It requires expert guidance and leadership.
• Sometimes participants may feel threatened.
• It is a failure when the group does not
understand.
• Strongly depended on student’s imagination
• Require willing volunteers who would ready to
act.

23. TYPES

24. POINTS TO REMEMBER
• There should never be one answer to a
situation presented.
• The time of the play should be brief.
• Enough time should be allowed for discussion
and analysis of the situation.
• Evaluation concerns the teacher and the
participants through discussion or follow up as
to specific individual behaviour.

28. PROCESS
• Need- Develop within group, concerns all
members.
• Role play- Explained as a method.
• Problem- Controversy and conflict
• Purpose- all members identify objectives
• Situation- specific attitudes and motivations
delineated

29. • Casting role- Ask for volunteers. Provide
atmosphere which allows for volunteering or
choosing actors. Do not use own names.
• Stooping- cut when purpose is achieved.
• Discussion and analysis- Actor discusses own
performance first. Teacher encourages
discussion, but keeps in background.
• Evaluation- Observe whether the purpose is
achieved or not.

30. CONCLUSION
• Simulation the one of the teaching method it is
used very much is teaching programme. It
helps the student teachers to become a
complete skill feel teacher. It improves the
personal confidence.
• Role playing is a learning structure that allows
students to immediately apply content as they
are put in the role of a decision maker who
must make a decision regarding a policy,
resource allocation, or some other outcome.
