[3:30pm - 4:30pm] Session 4: How to run a virtual simulation for task training

Dallas, TX US
May 12, 2021

Virtual simulation has become a useful modality for training in light of constraints imposed by the pandemic.  Advantages associated with remote learning are beginning to emerge and it is likely that such strategies will play a role in the future, regardless of the need for social distancing.  In this workshop, we will discuss key elements of designing and implementing a virtual curriculum for task training.  We will share our experience with a proficiency-based virtual knot-tying and suturing curriculum, including self-practice using at-home supplies, video-based assessment, and D2L curriculum support.  Anyone who is interested in learning more about remote learning for task-based simulation is encouraged to attend.  Prior experience with in-person task simulation is helpful but not required.  Each participant should create a real or fictitious example of a task simulation they wish to implement for this workshop; we will go step-by-step using each participants’ example to help identify challenges and potential solutions. 

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to: 

  • Describe the steps necessary to create a virtual task simulation curriculum 
  • Identify resources required to successfully implement a virtual task simulation curriculum 
  • Develop assessment methods for virtual task simulation 
  • Create approaches for providing learner feedback using virtual task simulation
