3 Ways Simulation Can Fast-track your Learning Efforts

How can simulation-based training accelerate student learning?

Medicine traditionally relies on a “see one, do one” approach to learning and experience. In this context, didactic learning tends to be limited to the process of imparting knowledge. Simulation-based learning picks up where didactic leaves off. Simulation makes didactic knowledge come alive in a setting designed to mimic real clinical encounters and lifelike experiences where clinicians can refine their individual and team skills well before ever touching a real patient.

以下是有效使用医学模拟可以快速学习学生学习的三种方式：

1.模拟增加参与度

专家们认为，讲师的意图应该是促进他们学习的愿望，并挑战学习者填补他们的经历不足的空白。最终目标？将学习者变成自给自足的问题解决者。¹Simulation is ideal for this.

As an educational approach, simulation offers a framework that is both immersive and experiential. Learners who train using simulation experience a higher level of engagement and show greater personal involvement in their training versus those who only experience didactic learning.

2. Simulation maximizes retention

学习ers and providers who use simulation have higher retention rates versus exclusively didactic forms of learning. “Simulation helps students build mental models, which is so important in healthcare,” according to Jennifer McCarthy, EMT-P, an associate professor at Bergen Community College in Paramus, NJ. “Faculty interact with them to build an effective model, so when students are under stress they can draw on that experience.”

研究证实了动手实践对保持技能的重要性。⁴In a 2010 study, 100% of graduate nurses said that simulation facilitated learning through experience without risk to the patient, and gave them confidence in emergency situations.⁵

在基于模拟的产科临床医生的团队培训中，有30％的参与者表示，他们的团队的整体表现显示出显着改善。此外，有90％的人同意他们对关键事件的反应得到了改善。⁶

A longitudinal study of internal medicine residents found that Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) skills acquired via a simulation-based education program did not decay significantly over a 14-month period. These findings are in sharp contrast with baseline data indicating that graduating residents without simulator training showed 17% poorer performance on average, despite three years of patient care and completion of two ACLS courses.⁷

Summary

“模拟有效吗？您敢打赌它有效。”南加州大学USC创意技术学院医学总监Thomas Talbot博士说。“这是一种现实生活中的游戏版本，有人可以取得良好的结果或不良的结果。我们让用户在安全的环境中拥有这种经验，因此他们可以自由犯错并向他们学习。”

诸如临床站点竞争，高质量临床经验的机会，重新关注患者安全以及不断发展的偿还策略等因素，已将医疗模拟从“尼斯到”重新播放到有效的医学教育和有效的医学教育和训练。如果您今天不使用模拟，也许是时候探索模拟如何添加培训工作了。
