Scenario-Based Virtual Hazardous Awareness Training

描述（由申请人提供）Y-Stress将创建一个在线危险废物复习课程，并开发一个电子学习门户和开源内容库，以促进安全专业人员之间的知识共享和合作。 它将利用Flash和Shockwave技术，将文本、音频、图形、视频、三维动画和虚拟现实结合起来，以最佳方式向受训者提供有效的知识和技能培训。 流媒体技术是跨所有浏览器和平台提供高质量、高交互性、低带宽Web内容的新标准，可让用户获得丰富的Web体验。 所有基于网络的学习内容都将符合可共享内容对象参考模型（SCORM）规范，因此可以在多个环境和产品中共享。 此外，将课程内容存储为小型学习对象将允许内容通过低带宽连接进行流式传输，并减少使用类似内容的未来课程所需的开发时间和资源。 这项技术将为学员提供逼真的交互式场景，以更新一系列技能，从检查呼吸器到在模拟应急响应期间做出指挥决策。 这种方法将大大提高在线培训课程的质量，因为这些课程教授的知识和技能在无法掌握时可能会产生严重和重大的后果。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) Y-Stress will create an online Hazardous Waste Refresher Course and develop an e-learning porta and open source content library to promote knowledge sharing and collaboration among safety professionals. It will utilize Flash and Shockwave technology to incorporate text, audio, graphics, video, 3-D animation and Virtual Reality to optimally deliver effective knowledge and skills-based training scenarios to trainees on demand. Streaming technologies are the new standard for delivering high-quality, high-interactivity, low-bandwidth web content across all browsers and platforms to engage users with a rich web experience. All web-based learning content will meet Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) specifications so it can be shared across multiple environments and products. In addition, storing course content as small learning objects will allow content to stream over low bandwidth connections and reduce development time and resources needed for future courses using similar content. This technology will provide trainees with realistic, interactive scenarios to refresh a range of skills, from inspecting a respirator to making command decisions during a simulated emergency response. This approach will significantly increase the quality of online training for courses that teach knowledge and skills that can have serious and significant consequences when mastery is not attained.
