Simulation Activity Architecture
The activity is organized as a short cycle: identify your account, set the teaching context, run the classroom simulation, and use the experience for reflection or discussion.
| Layer | What It Does | What Students Provide |
|---|---|---|
| Account access | Connects the activity to the correct course account. | Your instructor-provided PIN. |
| Identity check | Confirms that the PIN matched the correct name before the activity begins. | Select Yes only when the displayed name is yours. |
| Teaching setup | Creates the classroom context for the simulation. | Course, subject, grade level, preferred teacher title, learning objectives, and previous lesson information. |
| Instructional materials | Lets the simulation use course-specific resources when assigned. | PDF slides, if your instructor asks you to upload them. |
| Simulation | Runs the classroom interaction so you can practice teaching decisions and responses. | Your spoken or typed interaction during the activity. |
| Reflection | Supports post-activity discussion, debriefing, or written reflection. | Notes about what happened, what you tried, and what you would revise. |
Before You Begin
