Simulation-based education (SBE) is a teaching strategy in which students adopt a character as part of the learning process. SBE has become a fixture in the university classroom based on its ability to stimulate student interest and deepen analytical thinking.

Simulations and Student Learning is the first piece of scholarship that brings together experts from the social, natural, and health sciences in order to open up new opportunities for learning about different strategies, methods, and practices of immersive learning. This collection advances current scholarly thinking by integrating insights from across a range of disciplines on how to effectively design, execute, and evaluate simulations, leading to a deeper understanding of how SBE can be used to cultivate skills and capabilities that students need to achieve success after graduation.

Matthew A. Schnurr is an associate professor in the Department of International Development Studies at Dalhousie University. Anna MacLeod is a professor in the Faculties of Medicine and Graduate Studies at Dalhousie University and holds academic appointments at St. Francis Xavier University, Acadia University, and the University of Toronto.
