Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Söderström, Tor; Åström, Jan; Anderson, Greg; Bowles, Ron – Campus-Wide Information Systems, 2014
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to report progress concerning the design of a computer-assisted simulation training (CAST) platform for developing decision-making skills in police students. The overarching aim is to outline a theoretical framework for the design of CAST to facilitate police students' development of search techniques in…

Knerr, Bruce W.; Nawrocki, Leon H. – 1978
This report describes the development of a computer based system designed to train electronic troubleshooting procedures. The ACTS uses artificial intelligence techniques to develop models of student and expert troubleshooting behavior as they solve a series of troubleshooting problems on the system. Comparisons of the student and expert models…

Educational Applications of a Theory of Clinical Expertise.
Greenfield, Stephen; And Others – 1979
Two computer-based instructional projects and a workbook model designed to emphasize three different applications of expertise in medical problem-solving are described. The "CVTEST" Project (cardiovascular) explored the use of a computer program to provide guidance to students and facilitate self-assessment. The program does not directly teach,…

A Computer-Based Feedback Model for an Administrative "In-Basket" Simulation Exercise.
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Boardman, Gerald R. – 1971
The purpose of this investigation was to develop a computer-based model for maximizing both the feedback of an administrative "in-basket" simulation exercise and the analysis of the results. The development of the model consisted of three phases: (1) instrumentation, (2) computer interaction, and (3) experimentation and refinement. The…
