Executive Summary

When it comes to effective teaching, it's better to engage all of the senses. Interactive learning activities like simulations, immersive learning, and serious gaming put employees in virtual yet authentic situations where they can learn the skills and material while also making decisions and getting immediate feedback on their choices. These immersive learning simulations (ILS) range from expensive flight simulations to simulated leadership-skill-development sessions. Information & knowledge management (I&KM) professionals must custom-develop most immersive learning simulations today, though some learning vendors offer off-the-shelf simulated courses, and some provide simulation authoring tools that allow in-house development.
