Simulations that run in web browsers have the advantages of global accessibility, simple distribution, and the ability to monitor simulation usage. However, simulations need to be modified in order to effectively use the online medium. Online simulations need to engage the user, be accessible in multiple formats, be simple to navigate, and correspond to the user's learning objectives. Usability design is critical to create simulations that will be used by a diverse, global audience with limited knowledge of simulation, short attention spans, and unarticulated use objectives.During the workshop, Michael Bean will demonstrate how to create web simulations, discuss commonly occurring web simulation design challenges and potential solutions,  and show examples of web simulations that have been used by thousands of users. Michael will also provide a series of guidelines for creating simulations online. Michael will provide handout booklets, sample simulations, and sample HTML pages that can be used to create your own first web simulation.
