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
• Performance diagnosis
• Feedback and Debriefing

General Guidelines

1. Identifying where simulation is appropriate or essential.
2. Understand the training needs and requirements..
3. Instructional features:such as performance measurement and feedback must be embedded within the simulation
4. 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. Guide the learning.
7. Focus on cognitive/psychological simulation fidelity.
8. Form a mutual partnership between subject matter experts and learning experts.
9. Ensure that the training program worked.
