Transportation: Digital Affordances of Simulation Training
Hello everyone!
Thanks for coming to the Voc Talk Café and if you weren’t able to make it, no worries! You can check out the recording, discussion notes and resources on the Voc Talk Café by Après-cours website page here, and read the session summary below!
Summary
In today’s episode, we identified key concepts of simulation training and we compared and contrasted these concepts as found in gaming culture and web 2.0. We were curious about how our perceptions about this approach in relation to teaching authentic skills, transferable when it comes time to operate on real equipment. We found that Web 2.0 makes online training more accessible and authentic and the gaming culture is developing skills that support simulation training. Teachers can use learning theories that support the transfer of skills to organise their lessons and activities when using simulations, such as self-determined learning or project-based learning.
Do you have an idea for a Voc Talk Café discussion topic that you would like to discuss with your fellow teachers across the province? Let us know! We can help you set it up! Thanks to all who participated in discussing this very interesting subject, and I look forward to the next session!
