Short Sims
Clark Aldrich's
The Easiest Way to Learn
The visual interactivity of a serious game.
The focus and reusability of microlearning.
The predictability of a traditional workbook.
Short Sims are online scenarios where people learn by doing that are still cost- and time- effective to create and deploy. Short Sims feel instantly familiar because they map to how we learn in life.
The technology-independent and non-proprietary pedagogy was developed by industry leader Clark Aldrich during years of work with leading edge corporate and military clients.
Short Sims help new employees understand traditional processes, such as document processing.
