Abstract
Methods and devices for assessing a user'"'"'s skill level in a field of expertise based on game play data generated by that user. In one embodiment, a user plays a game which simulates an auditing interview. The user selects predefined questions to ask a computer controlled interviewee and a game log of the questions asked, reactions to the questions, and other data is created. The game log is then sent to an assessment system with multiple assessment modules. Each assessment module analyzes the game play data for specific patterns in the questions being asked. Patterns such as the sequencing of questions, the type and frequency of questions asked, and whether specific questions are asked may then be tracked and assessed. Based on the results of the various assessment analyses, a final metric indicative of the user'"'"'s skill level is calculated. Advice and tips for the user to increase his skill level may also be provided based on what patterns were found in the game play data.
