Are you looking to elevate your instructional strategies and create truly immersive learning experiences. Welcome to "Teaching with Simulations Using Experiential Learning Strategies," a comprehensive online course designed for educators, instructional designers, and higher education professionals.

Are you looking to elevate your instructional strategies and create truly immersive learning experiences? Welcome to "Teaching with Simulations Using Experiential Learning Strategies," a comprehensive online course designed for educators, instructional designers, and higher education professionals. In today's dynamic educational landscape, passive learning is no longer enough. This course empowers you to harness the power of experiential learning and simulations to foster deep, lasting comprehension and critical thinking in your students.

Grounded in Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle, this course will guide you through the foundational theories and practical applications of simulation-based instruction. You will explore various simulation formats—from role-plays and case-based scenarios to virtual and tabletop exercises—and learn how to align them seamlessly with Anderson and Krathwohl’s revised Bloom’s Taxonomy.

Beyond theory, you will gain hands-on skills in designing, facilitating, and assessing experiential learning lessons. Discover how to define authentic performance problems, develop robust facilitation materials, and conduct evidence-based debriefs that bridge the gap between simulation and real-world application. We will also cover essential assessment techniques to evaluate learner performance, reflection, and knowledge transfer effectively.

Whether you are teaching in a traditional classroom or a digital environment, this course provides the tools and frameworks you need to design inclusive, accessible, and highly engaging simulation lessons. Transform your teaching practice and inspire your learners to actively experiment, reflect, and conceptualize. Enroll today to master the art of teaching with simulations!

            <p>The integration of simulation-based instruction within higher education requires a rigorous understanding of experiential learning frameworks and their application to complex disciplinary contexts. This course examines the pedagogical intersection of Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle and simulation design, providing university educators with a systematic approach to transitioning learners from passive reception to active, applied cognition. By analyzing the recursive stages of concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation, instructors will evaluate how simulations function as structured representations of authentic systems and decision environments. The curriculum emphasizes the critical alignment of these experiential modalities with Anderson and Krathwohl’s revised Bloom’s Taxonomy, ensuring that simulation tasks, learner roles, and debriefing protocols directly support measurable, higher-order learning outcomes.</p>

<p>Building upon this theoretical foundation, the course deconstructs the practical phases of designing, facilitating, and assessing experiential simulation lessons. Educators will systematically define learning contexts, mitigate cognitive load, and construct comprehensive facilitation materials, including transparent rubrics and structured debriefing guides. The instructional sequence critically examines the facilitator's role during the simulation—observing learner decision-making, managing psychological safety, and conducting evidence-based debriefs that bridge the gap between simulated events and disciplinary theory. Finally, the course addresses the complexities of assessment within experiential frameworks, guiding instructors in the collection of formative and summative evidence, the evaluation of learner reflection and knowledge transfer, and the iterative refinement of lesson quality utilizing Quality Matters principles.</p>
