The system automatically assesses and tracks when the player completes steps and tasks and shows a full list of items needing to be completed. The learner is also presented with an exemplar video at the beginning of the scenario that shows how the real procedure is done on a leg. This allows the learner to complete the training, learn, and practice within the single player mode. When a remote instructor is available, then a teleteaching method can be applied where the instructor can provide additional guidance, learning moments, and assessment throughout and after the scenario.
