Screencast for the first time

 Good Afternoon,

This blog will be a first for me, I have instructed many classes but never did a screen cast before.  This assignment was hard at first because I had to learn the program and then decide what I wanted to record.  The other part is talking to people in a class room is a lot different than talking to a computer.  The best part about this is I was able to present something that I am highly passionate about and that not many people think about in their day to day lives.  

I hope you enjoy and that the information was not to high level.  I tried to explain the concepts that were needed without bogging down the message in the details.  Please let me know what you think.


Thanks,

Screen Cast School

    "Everyone makes mistakes. Error is predictable." This was a great starting point. I liked how you mentioned that with skills-based tasks, the biggest problem is inattention... you're so used to doing it that you go on autopilot mode and don't THINK while DOING. Sometimes at work I will realize I've entered that autopilot mode and that my brain is starting to wander. I then shift to a different task, get up and move for a bit, or put on some music to wake up my brain. This was a cool presentation and I learned a lot.

    Thank you for the comments and I am glade you feel like you learned something. This is what I do basically at my job right now is to get people to do just that, recognize what mode your in what your errors may be and adjust so you do not make those errors.

Computer Based Training Good? Bad?

https://www.humanperformancetools.com/human-performance-tools/should-we-consider-computer-based-training-as-an-impactful-solution   will include the link to the article that I read prior to this blog post.   Computer based training (CBT) has become a huge concept that has been utilized for a while and became mainstream during COVID era. It is efficient, quick, cost effective, and I believe a complete waste of resources. Humanperformancetools.com website had an amazing article on this subject. It is something that I am truly passionate about because I am currently the Human Performance (HPI) Lead at the worlds most unique test nuclear reactor. This article states a lot of good reasons why we should not use CBT as an impactful training and I think it is worth the read. Now let me tell you a little bit about my own experience. We do a CBT on the basics of human performance but as we move into the more advanced courses people do not know the basics even though the took the cla...

AI and its influence

 As AI becomes more and more integrated with life many people are asking where is it all going and what is the end goal.  Will we end up like the population on the movie Wall-E or will it end up replacing humans in the work force.  Although we do not have a crystal ball that will show us the answers to these questions, after being introduced pretty heavily through my work with AI we will not be replaced any time soon. This relates to the PLN information for the week because I personally feel that the future of a PLN has to include AI but in a very specific way.  AI while a great tool is still just that a tool, it still needs wielded or prompted from a human.  In addition, it does attempt to give false data quite often that needs to be double checked by an actual human.  With that said it will help humans be more successful in their current roles.  How you ask?  Well, if you look at the basic human performance principle #1 Human are fallible even t...

Human Performance Basic's

  The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error' Part 1 on Vimeo If you’re stepping into the world of Human Performance, there’s no better place to begin than Sydney Dekker’s The Field Guide to Understanding Human Error . This video lays the groundwork for understanding why people make mistakes not from a place of blame, but from a place of curiosity, context, and compassion. Dekker has a rare ability to take a complex topic and make it feel both intuitive and deeply human. Dekker opens by challenging one of the most persistent myths in safety: the idea that human error is the root cause of accidents. Instead of treating mistakes as the end of the story, he reframes them as the starting point for learning. This shift alone is transformative. It encourages organizations to look beyond the individual and examine the system, the environment, and the pressures that shape behavior. For anyone new to Human Performance, this is a refreshing and empowering perspective. It moves us a...
