This textbook explores the use of simulation within the context of education and internationalization. Simulation is broken down into its phases and these elements are discussed by experts, most of whom have long tradition in the application of simulation. Simulation is treated with references to the specific needs of practitioners, educators and researchers in initiating and developing simulation in different fields of study, with specific reference to teacher education. This volume focuses on presenting simulation as a means to facilitating students’ openness to complexity and development of intercultural skills through virtual exchange. Thus, it provides educators and researchers with a conceptual and practical resource that tackles the critical role of cognitive and metacognitive complexity in the education of future global professionals through intercultural pedagogy. By tracing the roots of simulation and outlining a framework to support professional learning through experiential-based research, this textbook will prove invaluable for teacher trainers, practitioners and researchers interested in simulation.
The tourism research article (RA) has not been the focus of many studies. This volume offers a description of the genre in terms of section, besides an analysis of the most used language features in each section of the RA. Among these are the presence of modal verbs. Precisely, the goal of this work is to describe their use, meaning and functions in a corpus of the "introduction" and "conclusion" sections of the RA in tourist studies. The compilations included texts from leading journals in the area. The method of inquiry includes corpus linguistics tools to analyze texts as well as specific examples to show how these forms behave in the RAs. The analysis of context is also essential in orde...
This book is written for teacher educators who are looking for strategies to teach a foreign or second language in a more meaningful way whilst applying active methodologies to develop critical thinking skills. The book is designed to guide the readers through a series of simulations that provide challenging learning opportunities, similar to the ones experienced in real life, whereby each simulation is designed to support participants’ language and critical thinking skills and their abilities as future teachers. The book first introduces the concept of simulations in education. Then it provides examples of fully developed simulations and instructions for their implementation, a template for the readers to create their own simulations, as well as suggestions for peer classroom observation and professional development. Finally, three case studies exploring student learning through simulations are presented. This book is a useful teaching resource for teacher instructors, English as a Second Language/English as a Foreign Language students, secondary school teachers and for language institutions.
Changing the Conventional University Classroom highlights the interventions practiced around the world by higher education instructors forced to make necessary changes in the conversion from face-to-face educational instruction to the use of online and virtual platforms during the COVID pandemic.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 52nd International Simulation and Gaming Association Conference, ISAGA 2021, held in Indore, India, during September 6–10, 2021. The 24 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 58 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: game design and facilitation; gaming in education; player experience in simulations; and policy formulation and serious games.
La simulación como estrategia educativa, en este caso, está orientada a docentes de una lengua extranjera o segunda lengua como a docentes en el campo de las humanidades. El presente trabajo sirve de guía a través de una serie de simulaciones que proporcionan oportunidades de aprendizaje desafiantes, similares a las que se experimentan en la vida real. Cada una de ellas gira en torno a temas educativos y de gestión, constan de un escenario y perfiles que los participantes adoptan para llevar a cabo las negociaciones y tomas de decisión. Las simulaciones están diseñadas para apoyar el desarrollo de habilidades lingüísticas y de pensamiento crítico. El libro redefine el concepto de ...
Ons praat maklik van genade. Dit is 'n baie beleefde woord wat gemaklik oor die tong gly terwyl jy in die kerk sing; dit soek nie moeilikheid nie en verwag ook nie baie van jou nie. As iemand vra 'Glo jy in genade?' is dit maklik om ja te se. Maar weet ons wat werklike genade beteken? In Genade onbeskryflik groot vra Max Lucado 'n dieper vraag: Is jy al deur genade verander? Versterk? Bemoedig? Versag? Aan die nek gegryp en geskud totdat jy tot jou sinne kom? God se genade is deurdrenkend. Dit is wild soos 'n stormrivier wat jou bollemakiesie laat slaan en laat omtuimel. Genade kom agter jou aan. Dit wil jou herbedraad - van onseker tot God-seker. Van vreesbevange tot reg-om-te-vlieg. Van hartseer en verdriet tot dit-was-alles-die-moeite-werd. Genade is 'n stem wat ons vra om te verander en die krag wat ons help om dit te doen. In Genade onbeskryflik groot help Lucado op sy kenmerkende styl lesers ontdek hoe hulle kan seker maak dat genade hulle ook op die ou einde meesleur tot 'n lewe van oorwinning.
Cea mai buna carte crestina a anului — premiu de excelenta oferit in anul 2013 de Evangelical Christian Publishers Association Sensul vietii. Anii pierduti. Alegerile proaste. Dumnezeu are un singur raspuns la toate infrangerile din viata noastra: HARU! Harul este cea mai buna idee a lui Dumnezeu. Dar oare chiar il intelegem? Iata ce banuiesc eu: ne multumim cu un har ieftin. Cand esti intrebat daca crezi in har, cum ai putea spune ca nu? Dar cartea aceasta pune cateva intrebari mult mai profunde: Ai fost schimbat de har? Modelat de har? Intarit de har? Motivat de har? Alinat de har? Apucat de guler si scuturat bine de har, pana ti-au venit mintile la cap? Harul lui Dumnezeu seamana intruc...
