We are so excited to announce the second in a series of webinars being done as OEGlobal / Pressbooks collaboration. The perhaps not so universally understood metaphor of “Under the Hood” refers to a shiny automobile, which we admire from the outside. In these webinars, we then go inside, Under the Hood is inside the Pressbooks to learn from authors why they were made and insight into how they were built.
For this webinar, [Supporting Scenario-Based and Role Play Learning](https://resources.pressbooks.com/supporting-role-play-learning), we are driving the car over to Australia to open the hood on two OERs that were built to support hands-on learning activities that take place away from the device screens.

> [Diagnosis: a Medical Education Game](https://oercollective.caul.edu.au/diagnosis/)from the University of Newcastle provides the resources for a board game designed to help medical students build and practice diagnostic skills through a game of solving clinical case studies. This OER includes guidelines for the game, 10 full case examples, printable game materials such as patient charts and test diagnostics, even links to 3d models for printing game pieces.
>
> A similar style of learning activity is supported by Deakin University’s [Workplace Role Play Scenarios](https://oercollective.caul.edu.au/workplace-role-play/). The OER includes fifteen role play activities in areas of Difficult Conversations, Negotiation, and Mediation. Each includes the role play instructions and the situation with specific role play guidelines for principal characters.
