It built empathy for different co-designer perspectives and communicated complex research findings. It was a fictional, interactive story based on the research evidence. They re-constructed an incident narrative for different character perspectives. Then made choices about the investigation, generating different outcomes. They reflected on what this meant about the ways investigations were being conducted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Outputs are on a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.learn-together.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a> explaining the new investigation process with guidance via downloadable documentation, online video explanations and signposts to wider resources.
