Multimedia using simulation models

Abstract: The paper starts with the discussion of the present way of teaching computer simulation and contrasts it with teaching the same subject with the help of multimedia instruments. The practical implementations of the main principles are demonstrated with the help of multimedia teaching materials, which are PC stand alone applications for teaching computer simulation in the fields of mathematical ecology and queuing systems. After discussing several technical problems, we discuss how the simulation software can be extended as well as a simulation language to support multimedia possibilities. Future work will involve distance education applications using computer networks.
