Objectives: Following this course, participants should be able to:

Day 1: Describe the 4 components of simulation

  • Identify opportunities for simulating real-world situations of the health professions.
  • Given 4 modalities of simulation, differentiate their purposes. Discuss how simulation doesn’t work for everything.
  • Integrate modality knowledge in hands-on exercises.
  • Identify 4 components of simulation.
  • Describe what a learning management system is. List the advantages of using a learning management system. Discuss how to incorporate learning management into simulation and assessment.
  • Identify measurable learning objectives and Identify complete case scenarios. Correctly identify the components of a SMART Learning Objective. Organize the various components of a simulation scenario into a complete document. Construct, as a group, a set of 3 properly formatted learning objectives for a simulation scenario using the prescribed criteria.
  • Discuss methods of providing feedback in a debriefing session.

Day 2: Apply techniques of simulation education

  • Construct 2-3 objectives for chest pain event with manikin and 3rd year nursing student.
  • Choose a tool for assessing learner’s progress and/or competency. Utilize multiple assessment modalities to triangulate observations.
  • Integrate knowledge of simulation modalities and write a case scenario which outlines the details of a learning activity.
  • Construct open ended questions related to the simulation experience; Select appropriate debriefing methods for the simulation experience; Demonstrate techniques to monitor progress of debriefing.
  • Prepare the simulation operator. Pre-brief the learners. Perform the role of instructor during a simulation
  • Debrief the simulation experience - debriefed by staff
  • Implement whole group debriefing/evaluation and integration of feedback from STEPS. Review each other’s group with peer feedback.

Day 3: Integrate advanced topics into simulation education

  • Recognize the intricacies of utilizing technologies to set up and perform a manikin or task training educational scenario
  • Integrate task trainers into sim activities (sonosim, vimedix, sp tools, lucyAR, pelvic exam SP)
  • Discuss the pros and cons of simulator death
  • Use realism to increase learner engagement.
  • Develop manikin simulation #2
  • Prepare the simulation operator. Pre-brief the learners. Perform the role of instructor during a simulation. Debrief the simulation experience.
