Today,
using of existing software and techologies becomes important in education and
training. Academic institutions need various educational software tools which
are appropriate for their own academic standards, curriculums and assessment
tools. Those tools make lectures more clearly, enjoyable and concretely.
Therefore they help students understand content of lectures by showing real
results with graphics or tables. In the study, to take attention importance of
mentioned tools, it is aimed to give a recommendation for statistics education.
Many of statistics tutorials are taught in theoretical form in universities.
While exercising statistical problems related to theoretical topic with
students, some special tools should be applied for analyzing statistical
formulas and their results. One of these tool is GPSS (General Purpose
Simulation System) which is a software high powered
general purpose computer simulation environment, designed for simulation
professionals. It is a comprehensive modeling
tool covering both discrete and continuous computer simulation, with an
extremely high level of interactivity and visualizability. At this
point, GPSS tool is introduced and its benefits are explained in terms of its
operations supplied to users in the paper. Also, Kolmogorov-Smirnov
normality test is applied and implemented in the paper.
