Simulations Improve Situational Awareness – SAM 371

In this episode, we discuss how simulations can improve situational awareness.

Your highest level of situational awareness is formed when you are able to make accurate predictions about future events. In neuroscience, this is called projection and it simply means you are able to predict, or project, the future events. This is accomplished through mental models you develop that are founded in your training and experience.
