Sensitive Content Disclaimer - This course discusses the process of performing a cremation. The course only uses illustrations and a sample of the types of activities in the course but I wanted people to be aware of the topic prior to watching/interacting with the Demo.

Description: This is an incomplete course and is rough around the edges and has not been "clean-up" for final use.

The course was designed to help new Crematory Operators demonstrate their understanding of the importance of their role and following all steps as well as demonstrate their ability to complete steps accurately and problem-solve unique or critical situations.

Highlights of the course:

• Cartoon style
  
• Course background/characters/buttons purchased from image subscription site and then edited in Illustrator
  
• All crematory images created in Illustrator
  
• Machine panels and buttons created in Illustrator
  
• Scenario-based - realistic feedback provided by the location supervisor to the new operator
  
• Specific to individuals location and machine
  
• Interactive - learner has to make decisions, turn things on and off, etc.

  I appreciate you taking the time to look at my demo. It was fun to revisit this project, although I am bummed we never implemented it.
  
  I'd love to get your feedback, I'm always looking to improve my skills and this was the first course of this level I've attempted to create. I value anything that helps me be a better designer and that I can use to help learners incorporate the behaviors we demonstrate into their daily work activities.
  
  Thanks,

And I love seeing the video demo you put together for it. Interacting with the buttons is great.

Hello-

Description:
• After teaching at a local community college for 20 years, I was approached by one of my international students about tornados. They wondered about how it worked as they missed the semesters drill. It dawned on me, that I had only participated in 1 tornado drill (and that was at another campus) during my 20 years.
• I had been wanting to try (and play) with CenarioVR (CVTR) and this was the perfect opportunity. Once I had a the CVR draft created, I approached the campus police and they loved the idea and wanted to see more.

RESULTS:
• Before the February 2020, 92 students had participated in our trial
o Only 4 of those students had participated in a tornado drill at the college
o 22 students replied yes that they would be able to give instructions to someone else on the accurate tornado evacuation
 Of that number, 12 students gave incorrect directions/instructions
o 9 students said they might be able to give directions
o After the VR, 90 students said they would be able to evacuate themselves and give directions/instructions to someone in the case of a tornado

Link for Course:
• https://d3trainingsolutions.com/samples-vr-tornado

What was done/details:
• Course is being built in Lectora v.19.0.3
o Includes still photos from the eLearning Brothers
o Includes 1 video from the eLearning Brothers
o Includes 1 Vyond animation video
o Includes 1 CenarioVR video consisting of 9 360 photos taken with Samsung Gear360
o Includes 1 audio file of official audio annoucement
o Includes 4 test questions that student must complete for data

Notes:
• This will have professional VO added, but work on this stopped with the pandemic
• The CenarioVR file has been updated (as there are some typos and such) but, my access isn’t quite working so this is the January version of the CVR

Thank you!
