Sažetak
Education is a changing process. The new generations of students differ from their older counterparts as they have grown up playing video games. Lecturers are adopting methods to students' requests in order to improve their communication and cooperation. Apart from this, course programs are changing and new methods are being implemented. Educational simulation games improve studying, make students active participants in the lecture and represent a teaching method that suits students' habits and their requests. The article tackles the concept of simulation games and their role in education. In order to estimate the ratio in simulation games usage, a survey was made at Business Educational Institutions in Croatia. The following goals have been achieved: (1) reasons on applying simulation games (2) obstacles to applying simulation games (3) courses where students would benefit from applying simulation games.
