DECISION POINTS

As students are working on tasks, they experience interruptions from various coworkers. These natural disruptions occur dozens of times a day in every work setting. Within the EnterTech simulation, a situation is presented to the learner for problem-solving, with the question: WHAT WILL YOU DO?

A multiple-choice selection of responses is provided. Each selection contains different possible actions. And, each action has its own consequences, including follow-up actions and responses. The learner must combine problem-solving and social skills while adhering to company policy and maintaining the current level of productivity. Like life, it can be tricky decisions.

However, EnterTech decision points allow for trial-and-error; if a student is dissatisfied with an outcome, then they can replay the exercise with different choices. If only life were really like this!

Make time at the end of each instructional day for group discussion with students about their interactions with characters within the virtual environment. Debrief about tasks, decision points and problem-solving scenarios encountered in the virtual environment.
