Simulation-based learning places students inside a realistic, safely bounded recreation of a real-world situation, a mock trial, a model United Nations conference, a clinical simulation with a mannequin patient, or a business simulation game, so they can practice judgment and skills under conditions close to the real task without its real-world consequences. It is especially prominent in professional training such as medical, aviation and military education, where the cost or danger of practicing directly on the real task is high, and has since spread into general secondary and higher education.
