Safety immersive storytelling using narrated 360-degree panoramas: A fall hazard training within the electrical trade context

Influence of Sociodemographic Factors on Construction Fieldworkers’ Safety Risk Assessments

“…The outcomes suggest that construction workers assessed safety risks in the same way, regardless of their degree of OSHA training. This finding aligns with the conclusion drawn by Tixier et al [21] and Eiris et al [23] that safety training does not increase workers' ability to recognize danger because it is based on traditional rather than modern teaching methods. Similarly, studies have shown that the modern techniques of safety training significantly improve workers' hazard recognition skills [9] and save a significant amount of time [23].…”

However, Caban-Martinez et al [20] argued that 10 h of OSHA training influences construction workers' ability to recognize safety risks.…”

“…For instance, these factors are typically assessed in isolation (e.g., Caban-Martinez et al [20] and Tixier et al [21] investigated the influence of Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) training alone), limiting the potential to generate critical intra-study insights. Moreover, most studies in the US either focus on supervisors or construction students [11,[21][22][23][24], and the few studies that assess fieldworkers' safety risk assessments are either regional [20] or based on a small sample size [25]. Given that fieldworkers make up a significant portion of worker injuries and fatalities in the US construction industry [26], and that injuries associated with poor worker safety actions occur across the US, it is imperative to investigate this topic further.…”

Covid-19: using simulation and technology-enhanced learning to negotiate and adapt to the ongoing challenges in UK healthcare education

“…The advancement and increased use of 360°field-of-view cameras in education and training offer one possible solution, creating virtual settings or scenes that can prompt or guide learning. 10 These can use existing footage or clinical or simulation spaces to create material, while following social distancing restrictions and using key workers. It has been suggested that virtual or online simulation can be as effective as face-to-face roleplay for learners' perception of tasks, as well as having the added benefit of being able to repeat the task or experience.…”

Application areas of augmented reality and virtual reality in construction project management: A scoping review

“…Many researchers investigated the efficiency of using AR technology as a safety planning tool especially regarding the hazard identification aspect, also as safety education and training tool, as a heavy equipment operator training tool, and as an inspection tool [29,[60][61][62][63]. Kim et al [64] proposed a construction hazard avoidance system using AR technology and image-based localization technique.…”
