A Model for the Evaluation of Sensory-Motor Skills Acquisition in Three-Dimensional Virtual Environments
Alexandre Martins dos Anjos, Romero Tori, Fátima L. S. Nunes · 2013
The evolution of computational techniques currently used in the multimedia and virtual reality fields enables new educational applications in various domains of human knowledge. One of the challenges presented by this new context is the setting of efficient methods for the evaluation of sensory-motor skills acquisition in three-dimensional virtual environments in medical training. A concept model was defined after the conduction of a systematic review process which showed parameters and evaluation methods used in related work. Initial experimental studies were also conducted proving that data from learners' human trajectories can be captured within a framework of medical training. These studies can also contribute with a conceptual model to be used in the development of an evaluation method for sensory-motor skills acquisition in three-dimensional virtual environments.
