Simulation

The basis of each SimQuest simulation is a mathematical model. Users interact with this model through the interface of the simulation, which typically contains:

  • Animations
  • Input- and output fields
  • Diagram(s)
  • Labels and text fields
Normally users change values of (input) variables and observe the results on the values of other (output) variables. In learning situations, this interaction should lead to knowledge of the model through discovery. An example of a simulation in SimQuest is displayed in the figure. You can download several SimQuest simulations for free in the Simulations section.

Example of a SimQuest simulation interface: a milling machine.
