Achieving Learning Potentials in an Educational Simulation Game for Trading and Generating Electrical Energy
25 January 2012

Authors: DELARUE, Erik; LAGA, Elisabeth; MEEUS, Leonardo; BELMANS, Ronnie; D'HAESELEER, William

This paper presents and motivates the development of a techno-economic education package, consisting of two simulation games, to simulate both the trading and the generation of electricity in a liberalized market. Six attributes (storytelling; players as problem solvers and explorers; feedback; challenges that fit the student characteristics; competition; appropriate graphics and sounds) are relevant in order for simulation games to achieve their learning potentials. These attributes are identified within both developed simulation games.
