Scenario design for simulation-based education

Simulation-based education often provides learners with an opportunity to develop clinical knowledge and skills in context. This is achieved through creating scenarios in which learners can immerse themselves as a means to integrate components of clinical practice learnt in isolation.

Simulation-based education often provides learners with an opportunity to develop clinical knowledge and skills in context. Through creating scenarios in which learners can immerse themselves, educators can integrate components of clinical practice learnt in isolation, develop practices for teamwork and interprofessional collaborative practice, and connect sequences of patient care. Scenario-based learning can also promote learner engagement with careful design considerations. This may include representation of the voices of multiple stakeholders, including patients and/or their carers.

Through this online course, students will review a range of scenario templates, highlighting benefits and limitations, and will design scenarios for creating immersive learning experiences.
