RESCUE Act 3

A learning tool which uses the virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) technology to teach students to conduct an incident investigation by collecting evidence from the site through interviewing site personnel, capturing environmental conditions using an in-game camera feature, and interacting with 2D documents and 3D objects in the virtual environment.

Our learning outcomes

Utilise their roles as designers to apply the hierarchy of control in DfS process

Identify common design risks that can affect the safety and health of workers

Evaluate design risks based on severity and likelihood, risk levels and detailed safety review

Identify industry standards, guidelines, and norms when mitigating design risks

Critique different design alternatives to eliminate or reduce design risks

Formulate alternative design changes to manage design risks
