Training of Procedural Tasks Through the Use of Virtual Reality and Direct Aids

A high percentage of the human activities are based on procedural tasks, for example cooking a cake, driving a car, fixing a machine, etc. Reading an instruction book, watching a video or listening the explanation from an expert have been the traditional methods to learn procedural tasks. But, most researchers agree that procedural tasks are learnt gradually as a result of practice through repeating exposures to the task.
