Action Learning

• The effectiveness of classical learning methods is not convincing

• Interaction is a necessary condition for involvement

• The digitalization of learning is powerful as an extra dimension for cognitive issues

• Action Learning is dependant of challenging cases as part of a storyline

THE LONG TERM VISIONTHE BENEFITS OF A VIRTUAL 25TH HOUR

• The complex task environments of organisations demand for new approaches for learning and development

• Action Learning and online Scenario Building

• Professional Gaming is a mixture of simulation and gameplay

• Relevance, actuality en flexibility are keywords

• A game covers a certain period parallel to reality• The concept of the 25th hour, seductive

involvement in an alternate reality’ for informing, learning and developing

ORGANISATIE POLICY DEVELOPMENT 2.0A COMBINATION OF REAL TIME INTELLIGENCE AND REAL TIME POLICY DEVELOPMENT

1. Policy:The paper

reality

Practice:The empiricalreality

2. Social MediaThe digital reality

3. Gaming:The simulated

reality

• The policy cycle of organisations challenged by a a complex task environment and political sensitivity requires the capacity to fore play of possible realities

• Gaming can add an extra dimension as supplement of the empirical, policy driven and digital approach of reality

• The essence van gaming is to get engagement and commitment of participants by using virtual realities, to stimulate cognition and skills in order to get sustainable learning results

PROFESSIONAL GAMING

• Efficient added value of an Alternate Reality based upon the 25/7 philosophy

• The investment is 1 hour par day and night, making use of the human ability of multi-tasking

• Continuous exchange between Reality and Virtuality

• Due to the availability of mobile devices

• Games and simulations stimulated by powerful storylines

• The possibility of real time interventions in order to respond at events or incidents in reality life

• Competition: Players and counter players• The possibility of user generated content• Collaboration within different teams

• Group digma• The meaning of fundamental behavioural patterns

• Automotions• The connection between Ratio en Emotions

• De Middle way• Using the balance of effective behaviour

GAME MECHANICS

• Game mechanics are necessary to make a game attractive and immersive

• An attractive game will stimulate learning effects because cognition is interfered with behavioural skills

• We use a scheme with three main categories and six sub-categories

• See: http://www.transreality.com/

• In the games for the safety domain we use mainly the following mechanisms:

• Battle Players and counter players• Queeste A survey to complex solutions• Trade Negotiations between parties
