Tools and models built into mōsbē today are based on technology from BreakAway's leading role as a developer of entertainment games in the real-time strategy genre. This means that they are designed and optimized for a strategic perspective of a third-person view - it's also why mōsbē is uniquely suited for the leadership perspective.
But BreakAway has also developed technology to support the creation of an immersive individual-level, hands-on training simulation.
Pulse!!, a virtual clinical learning lab for medical professionals, required BreakAway to develop a set of models and editors that support curriculum development, teaching and testing capabilities, a first-person user perspective and interface - and a complex proprietary model of the human body.
Tools to Teach and Evaluate Critical Decision-Making Abilities
While first-person perspective is made possible within Pulse!!, the emphasis is not on task-based skills practice - it's all about critical decision-making. The design of Pulse!! and its technology focuses on decisions - and sequences of decisions - that users take in order to gather information to reach a conclusion. In this case, it's clinical decisions and diagnostics made in order to diagnose a critically ill patient. The curriculum tools underneath the simulation are tracking the decision-making process - not the degree of skill involved in performing a particular procedure.
This technology provides unique tools for an end-user to develop new decision-making curricula with - such as:
- Interior environment generator
- First-person interface
- Curriculum modules and case editors
- SCORM- and LMS- compliance
As we continue to work on the cutting-edge technology demanded by the Pulse!! project itself, BreakAway is also evaluating how to create discrete tools and editors from the core technology to create a "first-person" toolset for the mōsbē product line.
