Presentation Transcript

  1. Developing Critical Thinking and Decision Making Skills through the Effective Use of Simulation Technology Heather Owens RN, MSN Heather Mitchell RN, MSN

  2. Simulation’s Beginning • Flight Simulation (1940’s – analog & 1960’s – digital) • Social & Political Education • Medical Education - To Err is Human (2000)

  3. Instructional Simulations • Motor Skills • Model Behaviors • Develop Abstract Concepts • Connect Concepts

  4. Essential Components • Preparation • Written explanation of expected outcomes • “Dry run” • Facilities • Combine with other pedagogies • Engaged Students • Make sure the students understand their role and the expected outcomes • Debriefing

  5. Essential Components • Engaged Students • Structure the environment and design so that students are unable to become passive • Anticipate things that might be misunderstood or confusing and discuss with students prior to event • Debriefing • Provide the students with a safe environment to discuss what happened

  6. Essential Components • Debriefing • Help students tie the simulated experiences to course objectives • Survey the students to identify what their perception of the knowledge gained

  7. Deep Learning vs. Surface Learning (based on Ramsden, 1988)

  8. The Desired Outcome A critically thinking student that is able to: • Analyze • Judge • Act

  9. Leveling Simulation • Faculty lead • Interaction between student & faculty • Student lead • Large groups versus small groups • Individual assessment

  10. Simulation Program • Face-to-Face (Real time) • Virtual Simulation

  11. Face-to-Face • Overview • Principles • Faculty Roles • Student Roles • Outcomes

  12. Virtual Simulation Program • Overview • Principles • Faculty Roles • Student Roles • Outcomes

  13. VSP Integration: Level 1 • 2nd semester Juniors • Pre-recorded scenes • Critical thinking/reflection questions

  14. VSP Integration: Level 2 • 1st semester Seniors • Pre-recorded scenes • Critical thinking/reflection questions • Key decision making points

  15. VSP Integration: Level 3 • 2nd semester Seniors • Live remote streaming • Critical thinking discussion • Key decision making points with classroom polling • Formative remedial replay

  16. Evaluation • Instructor Evaluation • Skills based • Critical thinking • Student Self-Evaluation
