Description

It is a challenge for the learner to learn on the job and with learning materials that are tuned to individual needs.  Most of the time practicing skills is not an option because of productivity pressure.  Practicing and learning from peers adds value to the performances on the job.

To facilitate this learning process within a safe environment, role play games can offer an opportunity to improve performances. During this game you experiment with your behavior and receive feedback on it.  In order to facilitate adaptive learning the technical set-up is based on a (prototype) chat robot engine for avatar-dialogs.
