e-Learning: Games and Activities
In this example, Rebus records, you role play the part of an expert called in to undertake business analysis of a recording company. By walking through the complex and interacting with key stakeholders the learner develops their theories as to the causes of the decline in Rebus’ sales. Starting with a meeting with the board your travels eventually lead to the computer room (where you type up your notes as a report), the object takes you back to the board room at the end where you present your findings.
A popular feature here is your “PDA” which not only acts as your notebook, allowing you to capture your observations, but which receives SMS messages as you undertake your learning. In this way we can direct tasks, hints and suggestions to the learner to guide their learning in a way that is entirely consistent with the virtual environment.
