PROJECT ABSTRACT Objective: To improve mining safety and health training in the western United States in order to reduce mining injuries, illnesses and fatalities. Background: Despite continued improvements over time, mining injuries and fatalities continue to occur in the mining industry, and reducing occupational illnesses remains challenging. Building on our past NIOSH miner training (U60) grants, we will expand our collaborative training programs with industry partners to offer competency-based health and safety training for miners, trainers, supervisors and health and safety personnel. Specific Aims: 1) Establish collaborative, evidence-based learning laboratories; 2) Improve health training; and 3) Develop new technologically driven training products. Study Design: We will expand our collaborative efforts with training consultants and company and labor-based training programs to develop learning laboratories incorporating our existing training resources and additional training products from NIOSH, other academic programs, and industry. We will also introduce and evaluate a promising new industrial athlete warm-up program shared by one of our industry partners which in an initial pilot study has greatly reduced workplace injuries. A mentorship program will be provided for learning laboratory leaders, along with a new evaluation infrastructure which includes a heterogeneous database capable of aggregating and analyzing data from a variety of sources and formats (including quantitative, qualitative, and multi-modal). Traumatic injury prevention will continue to be a part of all levels of training (miner, trainer, supervisors and health and safety personnel) and other NIOSH NORA cross-sector topics including musculoskeletal health, hearing loss prevention, respiratory health, heat-related illnesses and fatigue will be addressed through addition of health modules in existing and new training products. Building upon our past successes with experiential learning and highly engaging serious games, we will extend our suite of existing training products with new content focusing on NORA cross-sector topics and hazard mitigation. New modules will be developed that include an expansion pack for our Very Good Day hazard recognition card game and a new story-based scenario for the synthetic learning environment (SLE) Harry's Hazardous Day. Furthermore, we will create ‘hybrid’ games that serve as a bridge between traditional tabletop activities and full-scale SLEs using readily available mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets augmented by personalized digital content. Digital content will feature challenges, rewards, and scaffolding specific to each learner. Relevance to public health: The proposed program will serve to directly promote Research to Practice (r2p) with our industry partners. Intermediate outcomes will include: 1) improved safety and health practices; 2) workers empowered through active learning to be active participants in improving workplace safety and health; and 3) increased sharing of effective training programs. The end outcomes of the program will include a culture shift empowered by leadership and cohesive learning laboratory teams to reduce mining injuries, illnesses and fatalities.

项目摘要 目标：改善美国西部采矿安全和健康培训，以减少采矿 背景：尽管随着时间的推移，采矿伤害和死亡情况不断改善。 采矿业继续发生死亡事故，减少职业条件仍然具有挑战性。 在我们过去的 NIOSH 矿工培训 (U60) 拨款的基础上，我们将扩大我们的合作培训计划 行业合作伙伴为矿工、培训师、主管和人员提供基于能力的健康和安全培训 健康和安全人员。 具体目标： 1) 建立协作、循证学习实验室；2) 改善健康培训；3) 开发新的技术驱动的培训产品：我们将。 扩大我们与培训顾问以及公司和劳动力培训计划的合作努力， 开发学习实验室，整合我们现有的培训资源和其他培训产品 NIOSH、其他学术项目和行业我们还将介绍和评估有前途的新工业。 我们的一位行业合作伙伴分享的运动员热身计划在初步试点研究中大大减少了 将为学习实验室领导者提供指导计划以及新的工作场所伤害。 评估基础设施，包括能够聚合和分析数据的异构数据库 来自各种来源和形式（包括定量、定性和多模式）。 预防将继续成为各级培训（矿工、培训员、监督员以及健康和安全人员）的一部分 人员）和其他 NIOSH NORA 跨部门主题，包括肌肉骨骼健康、听力损失 预防、呼吸系统健康、与热有关的疾病和疲劳将通过增加健康来解决 现有和新培训产品中的模块以我们过去的成功经验为基础，通过体验式学习和 高度吸引人的严肃游戏，我们将扩展我们现有的培训产品套件，重点关注新内容 将开发有关 NORA 跨部门主题和减灾的新模块，其中包括扩展。 我们的“非常美好的一天”危险识别卡牌游戏包和一个新的基于故事的合成场景 学习环境 (SLE) 哈利的危险日 此外，我们将创建“混合”游戏作为“哈利的危险日”。 使用现成的移动设备（例如， 个性化数字内容增强的智能手机和平板电脑将面临挑战， 奖励以及针对每个学习者的具体框架。与公共卫生的相关性：拟议的计划将服务于每个学习者。 与我们的行业合作伙伴直接促进研究到实践 (r2p) 的中间成果将包括：1) 改善安全和健康实践；2) 通过主动学习，使工人能够积极参与 改善工作场所安全和健康；3) 增加有效培训计划的共享。 该计划的成果将包括由领导力和凝聚力学习实验室推动的文化转变 团队减少采矿伤害、疾病和死亡。
