Why Simulation Based Training? Well-designed simulation or game-based learning applications work because they leverage many known principles of active learning environments. • Motivation: Structures of engagement from game design ensure learners stay motivated throughout the learning experience. • Retrieval: Learners are asked to use knowledge immediately, cementing each new idea through application. • Goal-directed practice: Knowledge and skills are reinforced through focused, relevant practice. • Targeted feedback: Actionable feedback is provided so that learners can make meaningful progress with each round of practice.
Purpose Help users understand key elements of the hazard identification process. • Collect information • Observe/inspect workplace • Investigate incidents • Involve workers • Prioritize hazards* Apply the elements together to identify hazards.
Learning Goals • Help employers get better at identifying hazards in their workplaces. • Understand the importance of Hazard Identification as a key to good business and protecting workers. • Point to OSHA resources • Website • Pamphlets • Consulting group
