Can Virtual Simulation be used for Assessment?
When you think about using virtual simulation, you likely think about scenarios that learners go through to reinforce important concepts and to practice clinical skills.
Bolstering Learning Through Debriefing
You’ve done the prep work, completed the simulation, and now it’s time for your debrief – one of the most critical components of the entire simulation experience.
Why is that?
How Virtual Reality Creates a Safe Space for Learning
When you’re learning something new, it’s important to feel like you can freely make mistakes – and learn from them.
Multi-Patient Scenarios: A Next Step in Preparing for Practice
In the United States, recent data has shown concerning rates around readiness to practice. With 91% of assessed new-graduate nurses landing outside of the acceptable range of competency for novice nurses, it’s crucial that students preparing to graduate have realistic experiences that reflect the daily responsibilities of clinical practice.
