Learning simulations both produce better learning and business outcomes. In a recent survey of 400+ learning leaders, 95 percent of those using simulation learning reported positive learner impact and success in achieving organizational outcomes.

Intuitively, we know that simulations engage learners with realistic scenarios, but we now have the evidence to show they deliver upskilling at scale. Unlike other forms of digital learning, simulations measure the application of skills and bring breakthrough performance improvements.

• The business impact of immersive simulations,
  • Based on behavioral change data.
• Cutting-edge tech for creating immersive learning simulations.
• Use cases
  • for how you can apply simulations alongside existing eLearning.
• How you can rapidly introduce high-quality simulations.

A new generation of reality-bending learning simulations is unleashing a wave of experiential and visceral learning we once could only dream about.

Virtual reality (VR) allows students to move seamlessly from the workplace to a pixelated practice space where they can build muscle memory and mastery, in the presence of peers, mentors and experts.

Learn why 2023 promises to be a breakout year when VR learning transforms:

1. From virtual to mixed reality
2. From single to multi-player
3. From device dependence to cross-platform access
4. From video to real-time rendering, and
5. From pilots to enterprise deployment

Join a demo-packed session of high-fidelity simulations from Fortune-50 early adopters like Pfizer, Bristol Myers Squibb, Daikin and Walmart. Bring your questions about the future of metaverse learning.

Surveys are important tools for gathering the data we use for training evaluation, and they’re easy to compose, right? Wrong!

Survey respondents get frustrated with questions that don’t have response options that match their experiences, or confused by response options that are misaligned with question stems.

Poorly constructed rating scale questions are a particularly common phenomenon, even for experienced evaluators and survey designers!

Did you know that the rating scales we use with survey questions actually influence response?

This makes our decisions about which scales or which intervals to offer even more impactful. We also hold onto myths about how many scale points are best, how to label them, or whether to use an odd or even number of response options.

These beliefs prevent us from asking clear, easy-to-answer questions that yield meaningful, actionable data.

Join Sheila for real-world examples of survey questions, practice in identifying common rating scale problems, and some mythbusting, along with research-based strategies for designing high-quality rating scale questions.

Participants will be able to:

• identify common problems with survey rating scales
• identify common myths in rating scale design
• determine when to use an odd or even number of scale points in a given survey item
• determine when to use midpoints and non-substantive response options in rating scale items
• apply best practices for labeling rating scales
