Top Three Reasons to Use FLIGBY in Your Academic Class
1: The Most Crucial Aspect: What Time Do You Have to Invest
When selecting a simulation for educational purposes, the time required for integration is arguably the most critical aspect of the decision on the tool. Any time investment in integrating a simulation requires the facilitator’s attention and the engagement and cooperation of their colleagues and students to be truly effective.
FLIGBY was designed for quick and straightforward integration into existing curricula. This means facilitators can focus on teaching rather than spending excessive time on setup and configuration. The simplicity of these solutions allows professors to seamlessly incorporate them into their courses without needing extensive technical knowledge.
Keeping implementation time low was a key consideration in the development of FLIGBY. The following features ensure this:
- Plug-and-play solution – No technical configuration is required; no extra software or hardware is needed to use the simulation. FLIGBY effectively addresses the crucial role of integration time by offering a user-friendly solution that minimizes setup time and complexity. This allows educators to quickly incorporate the simulation into their courses without extensive technical knowledge or training, ensuring they can focus on teaching rather than troubleshooting.
- Ready-to-use assessments and gradings – FLIGBY provides continuous feedback during and after gameplay, enhancing the learning experience. The simulation’s design, rooted in positive psychology and interactive movie formats, immediately engages students, fostering enthusiasm and participation from the start. The analytics provided by FLIGBY facilitate efficient assessment of student performance, allowing instructors to track progress and make informed adjustments to their teaching strategies with minimal disruption to their schedules.
- 29 skills that can be adapted to almost any course – FLIGBY’s structured approach to skill development allows for easy alignment with course objectives, enabling educators to adapt the simulation to their specific teaching goals without lengthy modifications. FLIGBY’s competency-based approach is also a significant benefit for students who prefer practice-oriented courses.
2: FLIGBY’s Extensive Library of Sample Syllabi
FLIGBY boasts an extensive library of sample syllabi designed for various classes in leadership, psychology, management, and other disciplines, making it an invaluable resource for educators. This vast collection provides instructors with ready-made, structured frameworks to adapt quickly to their specific course needs and learning objectives. By accessing such a diverse range of syllabi, educators can seamlessly integrate FLIGBY into their curriculum, ensuring that the simulation aligns with critical concepts and theories being taught in the classroom.
FLIGBY’s sample syllabi library saves instructors valuable time in course planning and development. Instead of creating syllabi from scratch, educators can draw from existing resources thoughtfully crafted to incorporate best practices in teaching and learning.

3: Easy Connection With Universities’ LMS
FLIGBY’s compatibility with LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) significantly enhances its integration with university learning management systems (LMS). This compatibility allows for a seamless data link between FLIGBY and various LMS platforms, streamlining the user experience for both instructors and students.
FLIGBY’s technical team has extensive experience creating LTI connections. The project does not require additional coding or investment from the university, making implementation straightforward and cost-effective.
One key benefit of this integration is the implementation of single sign-on (SSO), which simplifies the login process by allowing users to access FLIGBY with their existing university credentials. This reduces the friction associated with multiple logins, encouraging higher engagement and participation in the simulation.
LTI compatibility also facilitates automatic data transfer between FLIGBY and the LMS, enabling instructors to track student progress and performance metrics in real time easily. By creating a robust data link between FLIGBY and the university’s LMS, educators can ensure a more cohesive and integrated learning experience.
