Educational Game Simulation

Below is a website I found with different games that help simulate activities. The game I looked into was for driver's education where it simulated driving; you select an instructor and go through different practice lessons, before taking your driving test. I thought these were cool games that simulated activties for younger children because even if they aren't close to the age of 16, they will be introduced to the roles, responsibilities and rules of these real life events.

  1. Ashley,
    This is very interesting website, I like it a lot. The bridge game reminds me of what I did in technology in middle school. We had to build our own bridge in shop class and see how much weight it could hold. I like the whole new technology approach to it all.

  3. Hi Ashley:

    Thanks for posting that FANTASTIC website. I enjoyed playing "Space Escape." Unfortunately, I kept crashing; however, I still enjoyed playing the game. Thank you for sharing this fun and interesting resource.

  4. Ashley,
    I actually tried some of these simulations this morning, but got derailed in terms of responding. I couldn't build the bridge nor could I stop the spaceperson from crashing. It's great stuff, and I'd like to find some for adults that aren't about violence and war.
    If they can make these for kids, I've got to be able to find some that are business focused for adults.
    Best,
    Mickey
