Interactive and Immersive Media for Training in Decision-Making: A Literature Review

Technology has been changing society in many ways, most of them with a positive impact. One of the areas where technology has slowly adapted is in education - we are still teaching the same way as years, decades, or even centuries ago. In this paper, we explore through a literature review how interactive and immersive media has impacted training in decision-making. We consider business case studies, such as those that Harvard uses and masters in the practice of teaching with cases, to be an excellent way to teach and learn decision-making at the university; this learning technique has recently been applied with the addition of different technologies, which is the topic of this literature review. This review aims to shed some light on the use of emerging immersive technologies to improve the decision-making learning process. We applied the PRISMA method to identify trends in themes, research topics, the main authors and countries, and their impact on the academic arena. We found that most applications were in the medical field rather than business, so the latter can benefit from using these technologies. © 2024 PICMET.
