SLIDE 2

Learning, Teaching & Development Drivers

  • More balanced e-learning ecology
  • More situated learning experiences
  • More authentic scenario representation
  • More active, learner led and flexible

learning

  • Enhanced preparation for employment
  • Accessible, scalable, updatable, flexible

Key Workforce Driver

  • Leitch Report (2006)
  • 70% of the 2020 workforce is already in the

workforce today.

  • Imperative to find more creative ways to provide

training to current employees if they are to continue to develop their skills and knowledge base.

Online Simulation and Immersive Education (OSIME) Research Group

Remit: Develop and research scalable simulation tools that impact immediately on training and practice

  • Online simulations, serious games, skills focussed

learning objects & collaboration aware virtual worlds development

  • 3D modelling, action scripting, illustration, software

engineering, pedagogy and domain expertise

slide-5
SLIDE 5
  • Valid & scalable online

simulations

  • Bespoke training solutions
  • Used within NHS & HE
  • Virtual World integration
  • Over 30 simulations
  • Evidence based
  • Continuous development
slide-6
SLIDE 6

Next Generation Skills Simulations

  • NHS & HEFCE COMSLIVE &

inter-agency training projects

  • Extensible and secure server

architecture

Collaboration Aware Virtual Worlds

  • Online skills simulations
  • Performance & e-certification
  • Integration with VCC and Virtual

Worlds

slide-7
SLIDE 7

Virtual Case Creator 1.5

slide-8
SLIDE 8
  • VCC is software that supports the creation
  • f interactive multi media case study

simulations.

  • Built upon an SQL database with a Java

middle tier and Adobe Flash interface.

  • Supports learning activities within “open

ended” contexts.

A good tool to aid learning and simulate real life clients.

STUDENT EVALUATION

  • Wow. Really cool.

Showed it friends and family to show what good resources my uni has. Very useful

  • resource. Helped

that the link to lectures was so clear.

EVALUATION: Quantitative Results

Students’ perceptions (1):

– Purposive sample (32 students/36% of cohort) - questionnaire

  • 84%: the module was more interesting
  • 84%: module seemed more relevant
  • 78%: think hard about their learning
  • 75%: learned more independently
  • 71%: encouraged reflection
  • 66%: more enthusiastic
  • More than half: encouraged consistent study effort

Open Question: What has been good about using the Virtual Cases?

More realistic and fun than a lecture. Thinking in a professional way. It has motivated me to problem solve. Brings theory to life, making situations and scenarios more meaningful. Innovative interesting and different. Real life applicability, managing a case load.

VCC 2.0 Preview

  • Replication of simulations
  • Cleaner interface
  • More flexible simulation design
  • Parameter feedback

– Decisions explored – Resources explored – Correct decisions taken – Relative order of decisions taken

Next Generation Learning Objects

  • Xml supported
  • Extensible
  • Scalable
  • Integrate to VCC 2.0
  • Supports skills rehearsal
  • Provide certification

Communication Skills Learning in Immersive Virtual Environments

Learning and Teaching Innovation Fund

slide-37
SLIDE 37

Project Aim

  • To apply application rich 3D virtual worlds

technology in order to enhance communications skills in health care students.

slide-38
SLIDE 38

Problem being Addressed:

“Quality of

patient care is top priority for NHS”

'We became horrified by the standard of nursing' “Basic care

'lacking' in hospitals”

“Failing hospital 'caused

deaths„”

“NHS trust

inquiry chiefs resign” Quality of Care within the Health Sector

slide-39
SLIDE 39

Communication Skills deficits:

Leading contributor to patient death and illness

slide-40
SLIDE 40

Wonderland value to student communication skills learning?

  • Provides a truly 3D immersive

environment.

– Space provides context.

  • Spatialised 3D Audio and

Gesture control enables quality verbal and non verbal communication skills rehearsal

  • In-world Open Office and

Shared Desktop App enables collaborative written tasks in context.

slide-41
SLIDE 41

Cones of Silence

  • Cones of Silence ensure that

conversations in-world can

  • nly be heard by those within

the zone.

  • Role allocations to students

within their groups if certain behaviours need to be modelled.

  • Opportunity to simulate

confidential/sensitive conversations with simulated health care staff or relatives.

slide-42
SLIDE 42

Shared Web Browser – perhaps the most exciting feature!

  • Fully functional in-world

Firefox Browser

  • Synchronous access and

control to www resources

  • Interactive web resources

may be repurposed as collaborative, VoIP supported situated tools e.g. VCC and Shareville

Telephony Integration

Enables students to make referrals from in-world to real world. e.g. student assesses patient, makes decision to refer to medic, required to make call. doctor questions student decides whether to appear in world
