Abstract
o Authors:
Justice Bosman, Mark Marais, Navindhra Naidoo and Lloyd Christopher.
o Brief description of the contribution:
The current methodology used within rescue training lends towards segmented learning where rescuers learn a series of ideas and /or skills that are strongly tied to the context during their training period. This methodology problematize and hamper the transfer and building of knowledge particularly when the context and elements of the incident changes. The findings motivate a need to change the current motor vehicle rescue training towards cumulative learning where rescuers are able to continually build new knowledge and potentially give new meaning to their abilities through the addition of new skills and understandings.
