Multimodal Video Learning Environment based on Multiple Thinking Models to Enhance Reflective Thinking on Dementia Care

Abstract

We describe the multimodal video learning environment based on Minsky's multiple thinking models to enhance the reflective thinking of a caregiver. To improve the skills of dementia care, it is effective to reflect on one's care objectively. The multimodal video learning environment helps a trainee reflect on trainee's care by using multiple knowledge representations. We have shown that our learning environment enables us to visualize a care situation from various viewpoints. The experimental results have shown the effectiveness of the proposed learning environment for dementia care.
