Term2.png SCENARIO-BASED LEARNING
Learning design based on an authentic scenario, according to the idea that knowledge is not independent of the context the learner is involved in. The best learning condition occurs when scenarios are close to the real-life, as they are likely to be enough complex to make participants develop all the skills and knowledge they need to acquire. Furthermore, the more realistic the scenario is, the more involved learners feel and, therefore, the more learn.

Scenario-Based Learning can be useful to:

  • Let learners become aware of gaps in learning
  • Help learners to surmount difficulties in learning
  • Help learners to change their behaviour in specific situations.[1]
