Abstract
Simulation is a tried and tested vehicle for conveying abstract information to students. Its ability to demonstrate - with powerful graphics support - derivation of key theoretical results makes it a literally indispensible modern teaching aid. The chapter describes efforts by a government-led consortium of UK universities to develop a range of (selectively simulation-oriented) statistics courseware materials for use with non-specialist students.
