These challenges overlap with the need to increase the quality and utility of risk assessment information in order to provide a solid evidentiary base that will permit choosing among regulatory and other risk management options available to decision makers.
This "design forward" approach enables designers to take full advantage of Bayes nets' modularity and ability to model complex evidentiary relationships that arise from performance in interactive, technology-rich assessments such as simulations.

We also recognize that students' self-assessments of their competence in cultural competence can't be considered evidentiary of their actual ability to practice, but recognizing their perception can inform the ways that we develop curriculum to test and enhance their skills.
