RUIZ, C. R. et al. Simulation games for teaching in Industrial Engineering: case study at Escuela Colombiana de Ingeniería Julio Garavito. Entre Ciencia e Ingenieria [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.23, pp.48-57. ISSN 1909-8367.  https://doi.org/10.31908/19098367.3702.

Current trends in teaching in engineering have shown the need for a change on the traditional pedagogical models, by those who promote an approach to active learning in which the involvement of all stakeholders in the process is important. In this regard, through playful methodologies it is possible to use techniques and dynamics of simulation games as an effective means to involve and motivate students to develop their skills, that commonly in the classroom or their real life situations are restricted by their role as students, which sometimes makes it difficult to understand the problems that they must face in practice. In this sense, the present article shows the methodology used for the development of a simulation game for the development of skills and competencies of students of industrial engineering.
