Clark Quinn weighs in on the question of awareness courses, suggesting that part of the problem with them "is a legacy belief that we're formal logical reasoning beings and so new information will change our behavior. (NOT!) It can also be because the client just doesn't know any better, nor have any greater insight than 'if they know it, it is good'." But, he says, we can infer to what people would do if they had that information (at least in the mind of the client) and design around that. "We need to give learners practice in dealing with the situations that use the information. I think we can work from platitudes to pragmatics, and should." I suppose. But it feels like a pretty light response. Image: wilderness and bear awareness.
