LC Module: Life-Size Simulations

“Simulations are good techniques that replicate complex real life situations which make learning easier. The use of simulation has been found to be effective in increasing achievement of students in chemistry. Simulation provides active participation and manipulation of materials which make the lesson more meaningful. Also simulation enables students to apply their senses to the lesson.” (Ezeudu & Ezinwanne, 2004)
