abnormal conditions, including hardware, software and equipment malfunction/failure and poor/unusual trainee performance advantages and limitations of synthetic training environments in facilitating learning application of simulation and synthetic activities including live, virtual and constructive (LVC) simulations common trainee errors and suggested suitable remedial instruction debriefing and feedback techniques: individual versus group debrief basic techniques: review simulation event recall what happened clarify facts correct misconceptions reinforce specific learning outcomes intermediate techniques: guided reflection of event coaching methodology transfer learning responsibility to participants decisionmaking analysis cost versus benefit/trade-offs skill and knowledge technique enhancement advanced techniques: less guidance using media/checklists/video oral and written evaluation part of group talks/part listens varied perspective (observers) developing and evaluating new concepts developing self-evaluative learning in participants documentation production and safe storage effective use of a course of training, curricula/syllabus and lesson plans effects of simulation sickness: nausea subscale: increased salivation sweating nausea stomach awareness burping oculomotor subscale: fatigue headache eyestrain difficulty focusing disorientation subscale: vertigo dizzy (eyes open) dizzy (eyes closed) blurred vision established procedures applicable to simulation operations functions of single-user, multi-user and distributed user operating systems fundamentals of instructing, questioning, engaging and motivating trainees handover/takeover procedures for controlling synthetic device/s how to distinguish between a technical problem and a content problem, and how to respond accordingly human factors implication and risks in a synthetic training environment information communications technology in a simulation and synthetic environment intervention strategies, principles and implications for a synthetic environment relevant learning management systems relevant WHS/OHS and environmental procedures and regulations applicable to simulation operations and personnel safety relevant sections of national and state/territory regulatory requirements and codes of practice sequencing and developing synthetic training activities and their relationship with real world training activities structure and content of relevant training resources techniques for introducing tasks in manageable segments to avoid overloading a trainee training and assessment competency standards when to intervene and when to let trainees direct themselves when interventions must be made, to: address safety engage trainee highlight a key learning point initiate remedial actions maintain momentum. |
