Often, talent developers may think of simulations as a high-tech option for training individuals in a limited number of fields, such as flight and healthcare. However, with some creativity and planning, you can use simulations in your educational materials to enhance a training or educational experience for almost any field. In this presentation, we will address simulation basics, research data on simulations for special educators, and when and how you can add a simulation to your trainings without breaking the bank or needing to use advanced technology.
