Abstract - In this paper,
we describe SABER - Simulator for Agent Based Education
Architecture. SABER is an interactive simulation environment
that employs methodology of agent based modeling and its
agent-based and gaming hybrid simulation. Users can model
virtual worlds and run the models on SABER. Our first
target is children. Using SABER, children can understand
the mechanism of a world by constructing and updating
virtual worlds in tries and errors manners and through
communication with mentors.

Abstract - In this paper,
we describe SABER - Simulator for Agent Based Education
Architecture. SABER provides an interactive simulation
environment that employs methodology of agent based modeling.
Users can model virtual worlds and run the models on SABER.
SABER provides tools for visual programming suitable for
rapid prototyping especially for teachers to construct
educational material. Through user interfaces of SABER,
users can access objects on their model during simulation
runtime, and can update states and behavior of objects
on-the-fly. Using teachers' material on SABER, students
can understand the model deeply by freely updating or
enlarging the model.
