“…In addition, others have explored the factors affecting the believability of simulations (Herrington, Oliver & Reeves, 2003;Mark, 1999) and that meta-reflection and interventions should be used to fully elicit the value of the learning experience (De Freitas, 2006;Wheeler, 2006). Whilst these examples demonstrate some discussion of the issues of immersion in and meta-awareness of simulations, they are elaborated further in this paper.…”

“…Others (Wheeler, 2006;Vincent & Shepherd, 1998) describe role playing experiences that can last many weeks. However, the model described in this case study aimed to exploit a niche between classroom based simulations involving group-work and individual student placements in the workplace.…”

“…Grounded in constructivist approaches that favour rich experiential learning opportunities, the literature surrounding role play in teaching IR and PS is so overwhelmingly positive when describing learning outcomes (Wheeler, 2006) that it is difficult to find counter-examples of failed or unsatisfactory experiences in this discipline area. Increased depth and breadth of subject understanding, improved negotiation and collaboration skills, increased empathy and overall improvement of grades are all purported benefits of using role plays in delivering IR and PS subjects.…”

“…As such, the lack of simulations for teaching this important theory is highly problematic. The simulation described here is somewhat atypical in that it is divorced from real-world political scenarios (Brynen 2010 ;Wheeler 2006 ). I do not present a "role-playing" game or a hypothetical crisis situation.…”
