Virtual Coach
The "virtual coach" introduces key ideas and adds a "human" element, which gives a personal dimension to the online experience. Based on learner assessments of our online courses and our course completion rate percentages, the following are the key benefits of a virtual coach:
- Orients students to the big picture of the lesson
- Creates the critical learning foundation for the student to build upon
- Sustains learner attention through dynamic interaction and graphical visual interest
- Provides learner assistance as needed
Additionally, Virtual Coaches can play a critical role in reinforcing learning. For example, if an incorrect answer to an Intra-Lesson challenge is given, corrective feedback is, of course, expected with additional information to support the right answer. However, SSE's learning takes each scenario and challenge to the next level using a Virtual Coach to provide positive feedback. Even after a correct answer, the coach reinforces why the answer is correct just in case it was just a lucky guess.
