Frank, Barbara; Kluge, Annette – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2018
In organizations, the assessment of mental abilities is a common way to predict learning success. This paper analyses the effect of general mental ability on skill retention and examines the relationship between refresher interventions and general mental ability in terms of skill retention. Two hundred sixty-six adult participants were trained to…

Belghith, K.; Nkambou, R.; Kabanza, F.; Hartman, L. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2012
Roman Tutor is a tutoring system that uses sophisticated domain knowledge to monitor the progress of students and advise them while they are learning how to operate a space telerobotic system. It is intended to help train operators of the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS) including astronauts, operators involved in ground-based…

Tichon, Jennifer G.; Wallis, Guy M. – Behaviour & Information Technology, 2010
Through repeated practice under conditions similar to those in real-world settings, simulator training prepares an individual to maintain effective performance under stressful work conditions. Interfaces offering high fidelity and immersion can more closely reproduce real-world experiences and are generally believed to result in better learning…
