Overview of Course

This course will focus on the application of simulation evaluation and assessment concepts. 

During the asynchronous preparatory work learners will review the following: the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice for simulation evaluation and assessment; evaluation and assessment tools for faculty, simulation-based experiences, learners, and simulation programs; and various resources to facilitate understanding of concepts discussed during the synchronous session. 

During the online synchronous session, learners will work in groups to: utilize evaluation methods for faculty, simulation-based experiences, learners, and simulation programs; discuss measurement validity, reliability, bias and generalizability of tools; determine an approach for evaluating psychomotor skills competency; and develop evaluation data analysis application plans 

Are you a simulation novice?  We recommend you start with the Foundation Courses to build a strong portfolio in simulation education best practices.  It is recommended that participants have prior foundational knowledge and experience with simulation pedagogy before enrolling in the Deeper Dive Courses.
