Simulations are thought to be effective, in part, because they elicit higher levels of arousal, motivation, task engagement, and quality of problem-solving in students than that offered by traditional classroom methods(Funke, 1988). In addition, they teach persistence, creativity, appropriate help seeking, and cooperative teamwork(Cairns, 1995)

In the evaluation of this educational tool the researchers have shown that the use of this interactive computer based instructional technique practically enhances user learning and recruitment skills. …it is clear that in the 21st century this type of instructional method will continue to develop towards being an essential tool of management education (Klassen, Drummond, 2000)

Numerous life skills can be developed by participating in gaming or simulation situations. Students can be introduced to difficult concepts that will be meaningful and understandable when experienced. Problem-solving skills, self-motivation, and self-confidence are enhanced through simulation experiences (DeBord, 1989)

The deeply engaging nature of simulation use has been much commented upon. It does however have the potential for negative effects. The student can get so involved in manipulating variables in the simulation that they fail to take a detached analytic approach or to bother to undertake a more 'boring' scientific set of experiments. For the learner, spending time using the simulation may be equated with learning: time of use becomes a measure of progress (Twidale,1995) .

Web-based simulations as teaching and Web-based simulations as teaching and learning media in Political Sciencelearning media in Political Science http://ausweb.scu.edu.au/aw99/papers/
naidu/paper.htmlThis paper describes the experience of using a web-based simulation in the political Science department at the University of Melbourne. It compares the effects of using traditional media for teaching and learning with those that issue from CMC via the Internet and WWW. Consequently it argues that the effectiveness of using CMC in the teaching and learning environment is dependent on the design by which it is implemented (Linser, Naidu, 1999)

To help students have more positive attitudes toward computers, faculty might incorporate Internet activities, projects, and curriculum content into resident instruction. Such activities would then be conducted in a supported environment where students may begin to experience positive results in Web-based activities. Students with these opportunities during their years at the university may be better prepared for Web-based learning experiences they may find necessary to maintain job skills and advance professionally (Robertson,Stanforth, 1999).
