The growth of simulation-based education and assessment has been exponential over the past decade. The ability to develop simulation-based education and assessment programs is a valuable skill for educators at all levels. This course is designed for those just starting out in simulation-based education. Whether you are in a state-of-the-art sim center, doing simulation on a budget or have never participated in simulation before, we will provide you with the skills to successfully execute a simulation session.
This workshop includes the four sessions listed below.
Simulation Theory
- A safe container for learning
- Experiential learning: the secret sauce! (Why simulation works)
- Sim-isms: getting hip with the sim lingo
- Applying cognitive load theory to maximize learning in simulation
The Nuts and Bolts: How to Create the Consummate Sim Case
- Create objectives and match modalities
- Manage the flow of a simulation session
- Write a case
The Dos and Don’ts of Debriefing
- Outline the structure and phases of debriefing
- Practice a script for debriefing
- Watch and critique some debriefing encounters
Navigating the Challenges of Simulation for Assessment
- Watch and assess a simulation encounter
- Describe pros and cons of various assessment tools
- Create a simulation-based encounter for evaluation
