Testimonial
“This is a great programme and one that I feel would benefit our inmates immensely. By them accessing this programme I feel it would give our inmates the following:
- A greater chance of retention
- They can see the scenario play out
- They have a visual reference
- A better understanding of how the choices they have made, were not necessarily the right ones
- An option to replay the scenario with different actions/reactions
- Interactive gameplay, most will have at some stage been on a PlayStation and played a real-time game and therefore be familiar with this format
- Real-time feedback
- Improves Problem Solving
