The Canadian Nuclear Safety commis : commission (CNSC) has been pursuing a sion multimedia approach to increasing effectiveness of Safeguards training programs, while simultaneously reducing costs. The work is done under the Canadian Safeguards Support Program (CSSP) of the CNSC in support of the IAEA. Previous papers describing the work done to d date have been presented to the s ate safeguards community and the training afeguards materials themselves have been used in courses organized by the IAEA IAEA. This paper presents some innovative work that would increase resents learning ef effectiveness while reducing fectiveness training costs. There are many instances of the use of simulations or simulators in science for teaching or learning purposes. The uses range from multi multi-million million-dollar nuclear reactor control panels to computer modeling of physi physical systems. Low cal Low-cost simulators can be created using multimedia tools and techniques, resulting in lower costs and more effective learning. While many simulators and simulations address in an effective way requirements at hand, for some applications ther there is an alternative approach, using e mimics mimics. These are . Multimedia multimedia-based programs which are low low-cost, rapidly assembled and present to the learner a faithful mimic of the system being simulated. This paper presents examples of such an approach.
