Simulation Done Well - Engaging with Fun for Learning - March 10 Elyssebeth Leigh

 

Simulation Done Well - Engaging with Fun for Learning SFN zoom session |  Monday 10 March at 5.30pm (Sydney time) with Dr. Elyssebeth Leigh

10 March at 5:30pm Sydney time (join earlier to test your AV equipment and chat with colleagues)   Zoom Session Click above or go to: https://zoom.uts.edu.au/j/85880392707 Using deceptively simple activities, join Elyssebeth next Monday in exploring the key features of simulation as a powerful learning tool. How do you uncover a client's needs? Play the Bouquet Game and reveal their priorities! Why do you see things the way you do? Play the Circle Game to explore alternative perceptions of what is possible! What do you need to know about others to work well with them? Play a 'Who am I' Game and discover something about yourself and others! Join these original activities and discover the structure, components and methods for creating engaging learning environments. Stick till the end for a review of what makes a good simulation and how to be an effective simulation facilitator. About Dr. Elyssebeth Leigh Dr. Elyssebeth Leigh is a distinguished educator and leader in experiential and simulation-based learning. With over 40 years of experience, she has dedicated her career to creating and managing simulations that replicate real-world conditions, enabling learners to practice and refine their skills. Her recent work includes co-authoring "Facilitating Simulations" with Dr. Laurie Levesque, published in 2024. Dr. Leigh has served on the boards of the International Simulation and Gaming Association (ISAGA) and Simulation Australasia, including a four-year tenure as General Secretary of ISAGA. In recognition of her lifetime contributions to simulation in Australia, she received the Ray Page Award. Her extensive research and publications emphasize the skills required for effective facilitation of simulations, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in educational settings.
