The document discusses the impact of the 4th industrial revolution on jobs, predicting a significant loss of white-collar employment due to automation and digital technology. It emphasizes the importance of creative thinking, problem-solving, and digital skills for future workforce readiness, while also advocating for enhanced learning methods through mixed reality and interactive visualizations. Additionally, it presents various studies on the effectiveness of multimedia and augmented reality in education, particularly in developing practical skills in fields like paramedic science.

Background Research Difficult to teach complex processes - without real world models (Tasker & Dalton, 2008) Traditional methods often use abstract visualizations - don’t capture complexity (Williamson et al., 2012) Focus on technology enhanced T&L (Johnson et al., 2016; Keppell et al., 2011) Visualizations are positive learning support tools (Mayer, 2014; Höffler, 2010) Kinaesthetic tools better form mental models (Pass & Sweller, 2014) 15 Most prior work in (multimedia…blended…dual modality) learning has been formed around words & pictures with less attention to complex learning environments such as interactive visualisations, games & simulations (Ayres, 2015)
