About this module
The DIB module allows learners to approach the topic of Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging in a safe space. It features an emotionally charged scenario for participants to explore, reflectively engaging them and challenging them to consider any biases they may encounter in their response.
SkillsVR DIB operationalizes “soft skills” via measuring and harnessing three core inherent traits: self-awareness, curiosity, and empathy.
By the end of the SkillsVR DIB module, learners will be able to explore their personal attitudes and assumptions in a conflict situation, reflect on the perspectives of others, and consider alternate perspectives with empathy when engaging with others.
