The resulting decision data are fitted…

Loke, Swee-Kin; Blyth, Phil; Swan, Judith – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2012
While the potentials of virtual worlds to support experiential learning in medical education are well documented, assessment of student learning within these environments is relatively scarce and often incongruent. In this article, a conceptual framework is proposed for formatively assessing dispositional behaviours in scenario-based learning…
