Training Simulators in Vocational Education: Pedagogical and Technological Aspects

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: This article provides a review of literature on using training simulators in vocational education and training and explores the vocational pedagogy approaches to describing training simulators as a tool for vocational skill development. We examine simulators applied in medical, engineering and teacher training education, present a general taxonomy of practice-oriented training models, and analyze the role of simulators as specific learning media. This review can be useful for developing and implementing initiatives within the Human Resources and Education component of the Digital Economy National Program (in particular, integrating simulators in vocational and higher education).
