Airport is a
simulation that can be used by
students with a language competence
around level B1 (European Language
Portfolio).
The simulation
can be played in groups with three
to five students (if less than five
in a group then some students will
have to have more than one profile
in the simulation).
The simulation
is self explanatory; each student is
given a text with a personal
profile, the students read and
inform the other group members about
the content.
The POOLS-Machine Plc is
a simulation where the
participants have to
choose between four
locations for a new
factory, each location
has advantages and
disadvantages. Download

Material for a lesson based on the
simulation method used for video recording a class learning
Gaelic (part of the Simulation method DVD) can now be
downloaded in
In 2005
We have continued to contribute new materials.
During the project the teams came up with many ideas for
simulations that would be suitable for vocational students.
Built on a Dutch idea (Frans can Schaik) we have now
completed a new simulation titled: "A
Location for Best Practice Machine Tools plc" Since New
Year we have adapted and translated the simulation
into Basque, Danish, English, German, Romanian, and Spanish.
The students have to decide on a suitable location for a new
machine tools factory, they are supplied with four
options and have to compare taxes, infrastructure, available
employees etc.
