| Popis: | In this paper, ways are shown how students can be familiarized with executing simulation studies for the design and improvement of new and existing material flow systems using flexible discrete-event simulation (DES) tools. The prototypical app "Production Simulation Application" is described. It combines learning-conducive components that are used to familiarize users with objects, the graphical model buildup, and the use of programming language. Game elements such as levels, badges, and points are shaped to motivate learners to interact frequently. They enable immediate feedback. A test shows that the app has been used repeatedly at short intervals beyond the course. A procedure for experience-based learning for conducting simulation studies is developed, in which a so-called learning factory enables learners to complete a simulation study. It is shown that the developments can contribute to the dissemination of DES and to increasing the planning quality in times of rising complexity of production systems. |
