    Five considerations for the design of microworlds:
    - Provide a meaningful learning context which supports intrinsically motivating and self-regulating learning.
    - Establish a pattern where the learner goes from the "known to the unknown."
    - Provide a balance between deductive and inductive learning.
    - Emphasise the usefulness of errors.
    - Anticipate and nurture incidental learning.
