Abstract

Associate Professor of Education Dr. Cohen conducted a workshop for teachers at Robert Muller L.I.F.E. International School in Panajachel, Guatemala in January 1996. Dr. Cohen uses an innovative teaching strategy that makes use of simulation games. With an emphasis on participation, his simulation models use experiential learning to convey information and present problem-solving tasks. Students learn incidentally while seeking solutions together - and Dr. Cohen has proven that they retain more of what they learn.
