Selecting Simulation Authoring Tools and Environments

Thank you to everyone for attending my seminar at DevLearn 2006 "Selecting Simulation Authoring Tools and Environments " . Below are the links to the materials presented at my presentation. I am not able to share the Fire Safety or Operations links please email me if you are interested.

It was a great conference the contrast of Ze's show and musing to Dr. Kirkpatrick's overhead projector and grounding, was what I appreciated most.

I also enjoyed meeting Brent Schlenker and attending his various seminars particulary the one on MMO. The best moment for me was when one of the attendees was absolutely floored by secondlife, she said that she did not know whether she was dreaming or not. I have never seen anyone have a reaction like that by Lectora or any of the other boring elearning that is out there.

Experiential Learning is my theme and the means to develop programs where the learner is involved and engaged.
