To prepare: Review this weeks Learning Resources on simulated clinical experiences (SCE). Specifically, examine how each category of SCE (games, simulations, and simulation games) is tailored towards achieving a certain level of Blooms Taxonomy or domain of learning. Reflect on your past learning experiences in both academic and clinical settings that did not include a simulation. For example, a specific class, lesson, group project, doctors visit, or staff training might come to mind. Select one past learning experience to use for this Discussion. Then, identify the learning objectives that your Instructor or health care professional might have had in mind. In addition, identify the type of learning environment in which the lesson was conducted (on-site, online, hybrid). Consider how a specific SCE such as interactive games, virtual reality, task trainers (low-fidelity mannequins), human patient simulators (high-fidelity mannequins), etc. might have enhanced your learning during this experience. Conduct further research to learn more about a specific SCE technology that might achieve the same learning objectives of your selected learning experience. Post on or before Day 3 a brief description of your selected past learning experience, including the likely learning objectives and the learning environment. Explain the type of simulation that might have enhanced your learning and why. Describe how you could use this simulation to achieve the same objectives in a more meaningful way. Justify your response.
