Spoken Dialogue: Extending Embedded Virtual Simulation with a Very Human Dimension

Abstract

Embedded virtual simulation, employed in many NATO training communities, is a key to addressing urgent training needs in areas that stretch the capabilities offered by conventional simulation techniques. Of particular relevance to NATO are training needs such communication and tactical team coordination. This paper will summarize some needs in training and mission planning that remain unmet, discuss the reasons why and propose some specific approaches that extend the reach of simulation in directions that directly address these gaps. We focus on communication and tactical team training. We will show specific examples of our approaches that are solving tangible training and rehearsal problems among NATO constituencies and discuss how this approach can be broadly applied across a spectrum of training settings.
