LEARNING AND TRAINING: increase proficiency without raising training costs Immersive Workspaces™ can be delivered as a customized solution to cover a broad range of sectors, where training and learning is required across an infinite number of disciplines.
THE ALWAYS-ON, ONLINE CAMPUS
The virtual campus, which employs a range of different teaching and training techniques – from scenario-based role playing exercises to the more traditional seminar-based lesson delivery – provides people with experiences that are perceived as real. The media-rich environment provided by Immersive Workspaces means that lesson plans and curriculum material is simple to archive and can be made easily accessible to students. This 'always-on' environment allows them to proceed and assimilate material at their own pace to develop a deeper understanding. The opportunity to effectively explore material from a broader curriculum before committing to one or two disciplines makes the Immersive Workspaces campus a compelling proposition for undergraduate studies. Seminars can be conducted when collaboration and knowledge sharing is vital, or one-to-one sessions deployed, where assistance-based learning is necessary. Regular group and individual assessment is easily organized, tracked and recorded. All of the data from seminars, training sessions and exams conducted in Immersive Workspaces is securely recorded and archived in real time for the purposes of evaluation and accountability. Bespoke teaching modules can be created to cover any disciplines where learning is required. The ability to make full use of the 3-D environment allows Immersive Workspaces to bring the textbook to life, augment existing lesson plans and make for an exciting new level of engagement. |
TRAINING AND ROLE PLAY More and more companies are being charged to explore new and effective ways of training their workforce in times of slow economy and demands for a greener solution. Immersive Workspaces offers your enterprise a solution to this and more. The Immersive Workspaces team has experience in developing scenario-based training exercises for a number of different organizations across multiple industry sectors. In areas where it is difficult, dangerous or too expensive to reproduce situations and environments, Immersive Workspaces can be deployed to provide trainees with the opportunity to interact with each other, their trainers and the environment as avatars – avoiding the hazards that usually hamper this kind of training exercise. Beginners can get their first taste of situations without risk, professionals can brush up on their skills, and instructors can observe. Multiple learners can take part in scenarios, applying textbook principles as part of a team, with sessions being recorded for rating and review later on. Participants can experience scenarios in real time and see how their responses affect the actions of others in the scene. It's not all about emergency services, medical procedures and drilling platform fires. Many industries are benefiting from the possibilities of avatar interaction in work-based training. One of the great benefits for retail is the capacity to role play effectively, using avatars to represent the broad demographic of a brand's customer base. Soft skills training is made more effective and compelling when trainees are fully immersed in the setting and situation. For the medical industry, it's the opportunity for patient anonymity, the possibility to make remote counseling more realistic and enable freedom of procedural demonstrations. Simulations can be timed and responses recorded, decision points at key stages can allow teams to work together or individuals to work alone – with all of the data being stored and recorded onto the Immersive Workspaces website. It's time for virtual worlds to go to work! If you’d like to talk to know more about any aspect of Immersive Workspaces, or to try a demo for yourself, you can contact us here. |
