Abstract:

While many scholars extol the benefits of role play simulations, little evidence exists to support this belief. This study addresses this gap in the literature by assessing the impact of role play simulations on student learning. We describe the role play simulation we developed, identify goals and learning outcomes, and align them with four knowledge domains (factual, conceptual, procedural and metacognitive), developed from Anderson and Krathwohl’s (2001) revision of Bloom’s (1959) taxonomy. We collected and analyzed evidence to assess the educational effectiveness of the role play, creating a useful assessment model. We conclude by identifying additional areas for future research.
