Evaluation of an Advanced Combat Vehicle Identification (CVI) Training Program (Masking): A New Approach to Target Acquisition Training

Abstract In-hospital resuscitation practices have changed by necessity in the Covid-19 era, principally due to precautions intended to protect caregivers from infection. This has resulted in serious delays in resuscitation response. ILCOR has recently modified its guidelines to separate defibrillation from other interventions, recognizing that shock success is extremely time-dependent and that defibrillation poses relatively little risk of Covid-19 transmission. The new recommendation calls for sending one caregiver into the isolation room in order to initiate bedside monitoring and defibrillate if indicated, while the code team is donning their personal protective equipment. Implementing this change requires focused training in that specific role. This can be accomplished by intensively training a subset of clinical staff to assume the responsibility and act without hesitation when a code occurs. Focused defibrillation training promises to avoid compromising the care of patients experiencing tachyarrhythmic arrests in the setting of Covid-19. Such a training program might even result in better survival than before the pandemic for this subset of patients.

Nuevo enfoque de la educación inclusiva y su articulación con la práctica docente y no docente New approach to inclusive education and its relationship to teaching practiceand non- teaching Patricia Beatriz Toral Ganoza. Centro Educativo Básica Especial San Antonio. DOI: https://doi.org/10.33017/RevECIPeru2011.0042/ RESUMEN La Educación inclusiva es una necesidad urgente en el sistema educativo peruano. La ley de educación expresa que esta es un derecho para todos sin distinción, sin embargo la educación para niños y niñas con habilidades especiales ha estado encerrada en colegios especiales, limitando a sus participantes a una educación confinada, impidiendo una interacción social con sus coetáneos y su socialización en su medio. La investigación que se presenta aspira a ofrecer un aporte en cuanto a la actualización de los docentes y no docentes que laboran en la educación básica especial y en la educación básica regular, se propone un programa de capacitación en Educación Inclusiva y su nuevo enfoque para contribuir a superar la condición de los niños y niñas con necesidades educativas especiales para una integración social. Descriptores: Educación inclusiva, programa de capacitación para docentes. ABSTRACT Inclusive education is an urgent need in the Peruvian educational system. The Education Act states that this is a right for all without distinction, however education for children with special abilities have been locked up in special schools, limiting participants to a confined education, avoiding social interaction with peers and socialization in their midst. The research presented aims to provide input regarding the updating of teaching and non-teachers working in special and basic education in regular primary education, it is proposed a training program in Inclusive Education and its new approach to help to overcome the condition of children with special educational needs for social integration. Keywords: Inclusive Education, training program for teachers.

The paper presents a new approach for evaluating the performance of the training program in virtual reality. The training process is described through three main steps: watching, recalling and doing (WRD). Each step is related to the sensor-motoric layer. The watching is related to the sensory layer, which accumulates the visual information from virtual reality. After then, that visual information will source for recalling the previous experiences followed by the decision-making using the cognitive layer. Finally, the decision-making activates the motor layer in form doing. The WRD approach uses the tests for the measuring of motor and sensory layers. The tests describe typical model of reaction for operator and activate motor and sensory layers as in real professional case. The cognitive layer may be measured with EEG. At the same time, the continuous generation of training cases may help to saturate the knowledge base. For this reason, the fuzzy model based on the generation of training cases was developed. The analysis of experimental data showed the decreasing of time delay by 83%. Moreover, it was shown the decreasing of rejection from horizontal and vertical axes in pixels by 62.7% and decreasing of time expected by 57% for motor tracking. The WRD approach may help to evaluate training program with evaluating sensory, cognitive and motor layer without developing prototype training simulator.
