iii. The questions can be distributed to other class participants

who can offer feedback in the classroom or later via e-mail.

iv. The value of the classroom for the practice of principle-based

work is the ability to provide feedback to responses that are
never clearly right or wrong, to generate alternatives, and to

foster collaborative working environments that can extend
beyond the training setting

 Designing Computer Simulations for Practice of Principles

i. Simulations also can be used in training of principles

ii. A simulation is a scaled-down enactment of reality in which the
components will respond in accordance with the principles

iii. Simulating scientific and mathematical principles works

well

iv. Simulations are useful for practice-applying principles in

situations that are dangerous, rare, expensive, time-
consuming, or otherwise unfeasible in the normal training

setting

v. They also allow learners to accelerate their skills by
confronting or solving a number of problem scenarios that

would rarely occur in the workplace and/ or that would take
considerable time to complete

 Blended Solutions: The Best of Both Worlds

i. Effective training delivery today will use the best mix of

media to deliver those methods most suited to the
instructional goal

ii. Thus for principle-based instruction, much of the informational
portion of the learning could be effectively and inexpensively

handled online in asynchronous e—learning
