Lab Sims
Lab sims are great tools to teach performance of the students
I really like the Labsims because they give students hands on experience.
I agree the simulations are hands-on. But if there is"dead weight" in the group, this can create a problem. Students who contribute to the labs in a viable, dynamic way, get the most learning from it. As peer instructos and as a formal student of an instructor, this tool can offer the unique perspective of project "ownership" and competition, which is another vauable lesson.
