learningAbstract:Simulation games (SGs) have been widely used in classrooms since they help mimic a real worldoperation or process in a controllable way. While simulation games are widely applied in face-to-face settings, their availability for use in online learning environments is very limited. This isan important education issue since 33.5% (7.1 million) of all higher education students take atleast one online course. This number is is believed to reach up to 90% over the next 5 years asthere is an increasing number of universities now experimenting with Massive Open OnlineCourses (MOOCs)[1].The objectives of this paper are: 1) to identify the gap between face-to-face and onlinesimulation games, 2) to identify key features of simulation games that enable making

Elementary teachers often cite practicalconstraints such as available time, materials, money, and/or space as hindering inclusion ofengineering opportunities (Brophy et al., 2009; Stohlman, Moore, McClelland, & Roehrig,2011). However, a growing range of software options may overcome materials, time, and/orfinancial concerns by allowing students to engage in virtual engineering (Plant, et al., 2009;Ronen, & Eliahu, 2000; Symans, 2000).This study extends previous research on teachers’ digital technology use during scienceinstruction (e.g., Gonczi, Maeng, & Bell, 2017; Maeng & Gonczi, 2020).
