This guide will walk you through the process of setting up simulations within your N-aible professor dashboard. Simulations are the core of N-aible’s experiential learning — designed to give students hands-on experience through interactive, scenario-based challenges.
By setting up simulations correctly, you can ensure your cohort runs smoothly and that students receive a seamless, engaging experience from start to finish.
Creating and Assigning a Simulation
Each simulation is tied to a specific cohort or class section. Here’s how to get started:
Step 1: Log in to your Professor Dashboard.
Step 2: Open the Cohorts tab and select the cohort where you want to add a simulation.
Step 3: Click “Add Simulation” or “Set Up Simulation”.
Step 4: Choose a simulation from N-aible’s library — or customize one based on your course’s focus area.
Step 5: Configure the parameters such as:
Simulation name and description
Duration or submission deadline
Group vs. individual participation
Learning objectives or scoring criteria
Step 6: Click Save & Publish — and your simulation will instantly appear in your students’ dashboards.
For example:
Simulation: Business Expansion Challenge
Duration: 2 weeks
Format: Team-based
Objective: Develop a market entry strategy using provided datasets
