Abstract
The article considers issues related to simulation modeling, the features of its use in pedagogy, taking into account the context of digitalization. The main types of simulation modeling (discrete-event, agent, system dynamics), their advantages (safety, variability, low cost) and limitations (technical and methodological) are described. Examples of the use of simulation modeling in pedagogy are given: business games, simulators, virtual laboratories. The main advantages of using simulation modeling are highlighted. The special role of game and non-game simulation modeling is substantiated. The framework and limitations that determine the most effective reliance on simulation modeling are outlined. The experience of implementing simulation modeling using the simulator method using the computer business game of the BUSINESS COURSE series is described. It is concluded that simulation modeling contributes to the personalization of learning, development of system thinking and preparation for professional activities, opening up new horizons for improving the quality of education.
