The use of an investment portfolio simulation as an assessment task is intended to reinforce learning by involving students in practical application of theoretical principles in a real-time actual financial market. Simulation as a teaching pedagogy promotes individual involvement and provides students with a deeper understanding of the issues, and skills involved. The simulation is designed to engage students in learn by actually applying theory to actual events occurring on the Australian Stock Exchange.
