Simulation-Based Training

This methodology is typically goal oriented and focus learners on specific facts, concepts or application of reality. For the acquisition of critical assessment and management skills. simulation-based training give more results than problem-based learning. The key components of simulation-based training are as follows:

• Performance history / Skill inventory
• Tasks/Competencies
• Learning ObjectiveslLearning Objectives
• Events/Exercices
• Measures/metrics and Assessment
• Performance diagnosis
• Feedback and Debriefing

General Guidelines

1. Identifying where simulation is appropriate or essential.
2. Understanding the training needs and requirements.
3. Defining instructional design such as performance measurement and feedback must be embedded within the simulation.
4. Creating crafts scenarios based on guidance from the learning outcomes.
5. Creating opportunities for assessing and diagnosing individual and/or team performance within the simulation.
6. Guiding the learning.
7. Focusing on cognitive/psychological simulation fidelity.
8. Forming a mutual partnership between subject matter experts and learning experts.
9. Ensuring that the training program worked.
