The Science Behind AI-Driven Training

At SchoolSims, we apply learning engineering (LE) principles to transform teacher preparation, ensuring educators receive cognitively authentic, scenario-based training that builds decision-making agility. Research by Bror Saxberg (2023) highlights how learning engineering leverages insights from cognitive science, behavioral research, and AI to optimize real-world training at scale.

SchoolSims integrates Cognitive Task Analysis (CTA) and Naturalistic Decision Making (NDM) into AI-driven simulations, allowing educators to engage in dynamic, adaptive experiences that mirror real-world challenges. By analyzing participant interactions, our simulations provide real-time feedback, personalized learning paths, and predictive cognitive performance models, refining teacher preparation through empirical, data-driven insights.
