Exploring Simulation for Immersive Learning Experiences in the Digital, Open, and Distance Classroom

Abstract

Simulation-based learning has the potential to foster a transformative learning culture within the Open and Distance Learning (ODL) environment. This report is based on a research project, integrating a simulation into a digital ODL classroom, conducted in Wawasan Open University, an ODL university in Malaysia. The report highlights how a simulation can be valuable to ODL students as an effective learning tool and by creating an immersive learning experience for the students.
