When Do You Take Refuge. Decisionmaking During Mine Emergency escape: Instructor's Guide and Lesson Plans

摘要

This booklet contains the instructor's guide and lesson plans that can be used by instructors for the 'When Do You Take Refuge. Decisionmaking during Mine Emergency Escape' training program. This training program was created by a multidisciplinary team at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to help trainees practice correct decisionmaking skills during an underground mine emergency. The training program consists of three parts. The first part is the computer-based training (CBT) program which can be used by groups or individual trainees. The CBT program is run on a computer (refer to the Computer System Requirements section) and uses a multimedia software application called ToolBookR. The training program contains pictures and audio files that simulate the decisions involved in mine emergencies. The second part is the instructor's guide and lesson plans. The third part is an optional evaluation form that the instructor can deliver to trainees to obtain feedback about the training program and discussion sessions. The purpose of the CBT program is to simulate an underground mine emergency and require trainees to make choices similar to those that they would have to make in a real emergency.
