Branching scenarios and simulations are forms of online interactive learning content. They focus on decision making. They begin with some sort of context-specific story containing a problem to solve. The learner is given choices and is asked to make one. Each choice has a consequence which is the feedback that helps the learner to understand the value of the decision made. Each consequence produces new challenges and more choices. The result is that learners can practice making decisions and develop skills in a low-stakes environment. Simulations an branching scenarios are good lead-ups that prepare learners for real-world experiences they will have to face. Come learn some of the basics of getting started with this kind of content on Wednesday, November 20th from 10:30 to 11:30 am in Room 292 of the Robertson Library.  REGISTER
