Activity Description:
Faculty have a knowledge deficit on how to implement simulation using best practices. Literature reviles many educators have not had formalized training on simulation theories, frameworks, and standards that support effective simulation teaching (Hallmark, 2015). The purpose of this activity is to enable the learner to apply theory and standards when using simulation as a teaching-learning strategy.
Module 1: Simulation Basics
• Demonstrate the correct use of simulation terminology by reviewing the SSH glossary and Simulation Dictionary
• Analyze the NCSBN Guidelines and select a prewritten scenario to assist the learner in meeting the NCSBN Simulation Guidelines within their course
Module 2: Design, Outcomes, and Objectives
• Determine topics for integrating simulation into the curriculum by using a needs assessment
• Illustrate how to create a simulation scenario using a template and scenario progression outline
• Construct an evidence-based simulation scenario to meet the learner's needs
Module 3: Facilitation and Professional Integrity
• Assess the role of the facilitator in a simulation
• Evaluate practices which aid the learner in achieving the learning objectives and maintaining fidelity
• Illustrate cueing practices within simulation scenarios
• Evaluate the preparation necessary to maximize learner outcomes in simulation
• Evaluate the components of a safe learning environment
• Evaluate elements for maintaining a safe learning environment
Module 4: Debriefing
• Demonstrate implementation of the INACSL Standard of Debriefing
• Demonstrate debriefing concepts and basic implementation techniques
• Utilize the Ladder of Inference to self-assess feedback techniques
• Demonstrate the three phases of debriefing
• Evaluate positive and negative debriefing behaviors
• Discuss and implement debriefing conversations utilizing theoretical frameworks and structured debriefing models
• Recommend feedback to a facilitator utilizing the DASH tool
Module 7: Evaluation
• Describe the purpose of simulation evaluation
• Construct appropriate evaluation methods to assess learner performance
• Describe the appropriate use of formative, summative, and high states evaluation when using simulation to assess student learning
• Construct appropriate evaluation tools to evaluate simulation
