The goal of this chapter is to provide a theoretical background for the understanding of the various aspects of model-based simulations and their infusion in instructional fields of application. Therefore the potential of computer simulation to enhance student learning and problem-solving, defined as a change in a student’s mental model, is described. Mental models, conceptual models and simulations are distinguished. Further-on modeling technologies are discussed with regard to glass-box and black-box models. A crucial question is how instructional design can integrate simulation technologies and the evoked cognitive processes into instructional planning. The chapter closes with perspectives for future development.
