Fall safety (1):
Signature Safety:
Training in digital worlds
A video interview with people in a safety consulting firm showing the advantages offered by scene simulations in a virtual world, such as Kitely. Simulated environments offer high potential for students to learn about careers and to begin learning the skills that they will need to enter that career.

Digital teaching
- Teaching bots can be programmed:
- to offer important information on cue.
- to provide instructional videos as needed.
- to ask questions and collect answers
- to evaluate simple answers and give feedback
- to record and report paragraph answers for human evaluation.
- Digital teaching is not adequate for all goals but might work for starter courses.
- Learning the vocabulary with AI. Two major cases
- A teacher would be needed to plan the instruction and supervise the learning.
- But a digital teaching assistant (DTA) might reduce teacher workload per student.
- Especially at the beginner level.
