Our Learning Simulations
Learning-simulations (serious games) allow delegates to explore complex problems.
They are computer based and incorporate sophisticated models, but are delivered
in workshops facilitated by experts. Learning-simulations are fun and get everyone
involved. Players make decisions and get immediate feedback, allowing them to quickly
build up authentic understanding. The collaborative experience, along with the newly
gained skills and knowledge, begins the process of transformation.

Bespoke Simulations
pixelfountain has been developing learning-simulations (serious games) for over a
decade. During that time we have developed 15 simulations. Most have been developed
for our own portfolio, but we have undertaken bespoke work as well.
With bespoke simulation development, it is worth noting that the development process
itself can be configured into learning. A group of delegates provide input to the
simulation over a number of sessions. This achieved through a series of exercises
where delegates gain a new perspective on the organisation while giving information
that can be utilised in the simulation. If you want to know more about our bespoke
service click here.
Workshop Exercises
Our learning-simulations can be top and tailed in a workshop with various exercises
and can be tailored to meet the needs of the audience.
