| Abstract: | Learning Management Systems (LMS's) are generally used for storing and deploying learning material. In this experiment, however, it is used to keep track of, and store, a role play simulation. The script and roles for the role play simulation were invented and developed by the participants, building on what the participants found relevant to test in a simulation. The LMS was used to capture and store the conversation to see if this could be used for evaluation purposes. However, unexpected problems required changes to the running of the experiment. Instead of using a chat-function (which was the original plan), the participants had to use a discussion forum. The participants found the approach interesting and reported on a minor learning outcome from the development workshop. They reported a lack of learning outcome from the role play due to the fragmented dialogue and technical problems. They also indicated a preference towards shorter scenarios and repeated plays, incorporating the information gathered from the debriefing following each play session. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
