Using Emotionally-Charged Stories for Immersive Games and Scenario-based e-Learning

Learn how the usage of emotionally-charged scenarios effectively involve learners and results in effective, highly interactive and engaging e-learning programs.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 11, 2007 -
Pasadena, CA September 2007 - Vignettes for Training (VFT), an e-Learning  workshop producer presents a soft-skill e-Learning simulation on Negotiation  entitled "Interview with the Vagabond" produced by Michael Gibson. The  soft-skill simulation uses Scenario-based e-Learning to engage the  learner in  high involvement.

In the "Vagabond", you are confronted with a dangerous situation. It is a life  and death situation and you must negotiate to get out of this situation.  For e-Learning to be effective,  it must be highly interactive and engaging.  However, most of the e-Learning today are boring page-turners that fail to help in retention. This problem is even worse when teaching soft-skills online.  The model "Interview with the Vagabond" uses emotionally-charged situations,  scenarios, and real-life events to put the learner on the spot. The learner cannot help but be involved in the scenario. To preview the Scenario-based e-Learning (SBL), visit and click "Interview with the Vagabond":  http://www.vignettestraining.com/preview-main-workshop.htm

Ray Jimenez, PhD, facilitator for the workshops on Scenario-based e-Learning  suggests that e-Learning developers follow some of these ideas:  o Select emotionally-provocative stories and real-life events  o Build a powerful story with realistic characters  o Allow the learners to discover and never to show answers

Using emotionally-charged events in Scenario-based e-Learning is only one  of the many topics covered in Ray Jimenez's workshop on Scenario-based e-Learning scheduled in Chicago, IL and Pasadena, CA, on December 4 and 7, 2007.
