International Simulation and Gaming Research Yearbook

Widely viewed as the most important yearbook on the subject, The International Simulation and Gaming Research Yearbook brings together topical and authoritative contributions from leading figures in the field of gaming and simulations, representing current international thinking and best practice. In this 1998 volume, consideration is given to exploring ways in which interactive training can be used to improve the planning for and response to emergency situations. The practical use of simulations and games is examined within the following areas: The emergency services, Industry, Business, Health, Education. The contents illustrate the wide range of devices that are employed to provide the conditions for training to take place, and the Yearbook reinforces the argument that interactive methods have an expanding part to play in the provision of effective training for an increasingly demanding world. SAGSET (The Society for Interactive Learning) is a voluntary professional society founded in 1970. Its aim is to develop the use of simulations and games in education and training. Book jacket.
