Speakers: Eben Myers
Track: SGS: Game Design
Format: Lecture
Experience Level: All
Description: Training simulations are simplified representations of systems and processes that exist in real life. This talk looks at the systems and processes relating to safety on Alcoa's loading docks and examines their translation into the design of SafeDock. Topics discussed include: design; usability; play testing; and lessons learned. Alcoa continually strives to find new and innovative ways to communicate its safety initiative to employees and contractors. Working together, Alcoa and Etcetera Edutainment developed the multiplayer SafeDock simulation to provide a safe virtual environment in which workers can engage with concepts of hazard recognition and avoidance.
