Abstrakt: Experiential learning is considered as the most efficient learning activity; nonetheless, numerous situations exist in which real experience could represent a risk for the learner. In these situations, ICTs can be a used in order to reproduce virtual environments in order to train for it. By then, the concept of Instructional Design has assumed an important place to design those simulation tools. Nevertheless, the existing literature lacks adequate methods to access the user's learning process and to make it explicit. For that reason, in this paper, we propose the IAM (Instrumental Adaptation Model) and its operationalization in the PNA (Process Network Analysis). This is a new usability test that specifically applies to learning situations, and aims to better identify the appropriation process of each category of users. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
