OpenLabyrinth: Developing Virtual Patient Narratives

Wednesday, November 04, 2009 | 12:40PM–1:30PM | Meeting Room 603
Session Type: E09 Hybrid
The use of virtual patients is well established in health care education but is typically expensive to develop and limited in learning designs afforded by the software. The OpenLabyrinth platform uses an abstracted and game-informed approach to support rich learning and assessment activities that can be inexpensive and quick to build.
