The search for new methods in INTERACTIVE SKILLS training

Abstract

The attraction of hindsight is that it makes life simple. When events are seen in retrospect, the blind alley need never have been taken, mistakes can evaporate and the messy chaos of uncertainty can be transformed into an intricate network of purposeful events. Not that this transformation is undesirable. This article, for example, which is the first in a series describing the results of over ten man‐years of training research and development, uses the hindsight of our research team to spare readers from a tedious catalogue of our errors and uncertainties. So we write about areas of success; for our failures and uncertainties are like everybody else's — depressing, time‐consuming and unspeakably tedious to hear about second‐hand.
