Interactive Review Exercises for Soldiers


LuxorMedia has an online demonstration of their Virtual Mission Preparation interactive exercises for military personnel. The exercises are intended as a review of courseware and cover everything from conduct as a prisoner of way to Bosnian ethnic groups. There are a variety of interesting games, including dragging keys to unlock doors, a version of the old shell game, more traditional fill-ins and ordering items, and, of course, an action packed firing range game. (Yes, I was mortified when I shot a squirrel by mistake.) The use of audio in the games is quite engaging. There is a narrator that provides instructions and a commander (complete with gruffy voice) that informs you that you're either "on target" or you need to "re-engage." Some great examples here... enjoy!
