enhanced with the proper mix of medium, student, subject matter content and learning task (p. 445).After evaluating a number of meta-analyses and frequently contradictory literature, Clark2, 3remained convinced that media do not matter. He pointed out, “it is method of instruction [ratherthan media] that leads more directly and powerfully to learning” (Clark, 1983, p. 449). On theother side of the debate, Kosma4 argues that media and methods influence each other. “In a gooddesign, media and methods are inexorably confounded. Media constrain and enablemethods…”(p. 11).In 1989, Gokhale5 compared a “canned” simulation program that required the students to apply“rules of logic” with hands-on laboratories in teaching logic circuits.

OS3 is able to automatically import actual satellite tracks and weatherinformation to simulate complex scenarios at a certain point in time series. Moreover, it isextendable for more complicated and thorough analysis tasks and supports the calculation oftypical measures such as SNR, BER, and packet loss, which makes it possible for the researchersand teaching faculty to customize or further develop simulation modules related to dronenavigation systems.Towards the laboratory platform and
