Abstract

The chapter defines the criteria on which the choices for the design and realisation of the simulation games were based as well as the educational goals. Two simulation games are presented, one for geometry the other for arithmetic; these are supplemented by the relevant documentation, a description of the materials and the observation and verification instruments.
