ICSiE07 provides a forum for discussion and presentations focusing on the development of a curricular body of knowledge, accreditation criteria for simulation education, the development of simulation certificate programs, and the use of simulation tools in education and training. This year we will continue the development of the criteria for accreditation of simulation programs at the undergraduate and masters level in a working session. Last year we made significant progress toward that goal. We will also offer a session dedicated to the development of the body of knowledge in modeling and simulation for undergraduate and graduate education. In addition to these special session we welcome papers consistent with the major topical interests described below.
All accepted papers will also be published in the ACM Digital Library.
Major topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
 |
Accreditation of Simulation Programs |
|
|
Simulation course certification |
|
|
Teaching modeling and simulation |
|
|
Educational case studies |
|
|
Design and use of simulators for educational purposes |
|
|
Modeling and simulation curriculum |
|
|
Virtual reality and potential applications of VR in education |
|
|
Development of multimedia models and their application in education |
|
