As a new digital marketer, it can be difficult to explain how your digital marketing activities are driving real business results.

Our Metahuman Stephanie, is an CEO who wants to discuss the performance of a recent digital campaign. In the scenario with Stephanie, learners apply their marketing knowledge and combine this with analytical and communication skills to explain how their recent campaign could be improved.

Nurses seeking to upskill themselves in tuberculosis (TB) need the skills to screen individuals from at risk populations for both active and latent TB, and apply effective strategies to prevent, contain and treat the disease.

Our Metahuman, Raj, helps learners to develop their skills in screening, diagnosing and treating patients from a variety of different backgrounds while building rapport and educating the patient about treatment. Raj is apprehensive about seeing the nurse and is unsure what his symptoms might reveal…

The PGx team have been hard at work developing immersive reality simulations that have potential to revolutionise how our learners practice and improve their communication skills. To achieve this, we’ve created interactive AI characters or ‘metahumans’ that are programmed with personalities, back-stories and health symptoms.

Our first prototype was designed for learners studying nursing, so they can practice their verbal communication skills as they interact with these metahumans, questioning, comforting and educating them about their illnesses and treatments. The virtual environment (the hospital), the appearance of the characters, their voices and backstories can all be easily changed and updated, making these types of conversational simulations applicable in a wide range of educational contexts, across many different disciplines.

We are continuing to improve our conversational AI model, so the language of the Metahumans becomes more realistic, and their personalities become increasingly dynamic and nuanced.
