Description: This webinar will explore the Canadian Alliance of Nurse Educators using Simulation (CAN-Sim) website and resources including virtual simulation games.

The Evidence to Support Virtual Simulation as an Effective Pedagogy During the Pandemic

Presented by: Cynthia Foronda, PhD, RN, CNE, CHSE, ANEF

Description: This webinar presents the evidence to support virtual simulation as an effective pedagogy. Legislative restrictions and recommendations for policymakers during the pandemic are discussed. Resources to assist nurse educators with virtual simulation sources are provided.

Description: Nurses in simulation around the world are seeking new methods of thinking about and providing simulation during and after the pandemic. During the pandemic, guidelines are changing frequently, plans for hospital and academic based simulation moving forward are unstable. Students are not allowed onto campus or to hospitals. When they do come back, new cleaning and distancing rules will change how simulation is provided. Gathering information about how other sites and countries are handling simulation education during and potentially post pandemic may be useful. There is no need to reinvent the wheel. How others have handled the Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity (VUCA) phenomenon may be reassuring. This webinar will provide ideas and insights on how the simulation community can handle the VUCA phenomenon.

CNE: 1.0

Description: Learners will have gained knowledge as to the use of technology to increase the number and quality of Sim-IPE activities through its ability to include students who are in on-line/distance academic programs. After attending this webinar the learner will have an increased knowledge of how multiple modalities could be utilized to include distance health professions students in synchronous Sim-IPE activities.
