Associate Professor Brenda Bannan tests a technology-based intervention with local emergency responders

Associate Professor Brenda Bannan works with Fairfax County Police, Fire, and EMTs to test a technology-based intervention in an emergency response and medical simulation training in a multi-team context. The study involves cycles of related research and evaluation of the system and participant response to the system during engagement with a patient mannequin in a simulated car accident, in transport to the hospital Emergency Department. This research will inform simulation-based training research as well as the emerging field of learning analytics. Photo by Alexis Glenn/Creative Services/George Mason University
