Simulation Special Interest Group

The simulation SIG was established in July 2012 in response to an identified need to promote collaboration and in recognition of the value of a sharing platform to explore good practice between professionals to enhance the learner experience.

The purpose of the group is to facilitate knowledge transfer and promote the sharing of effective and sustainable educational practices across academic and practice environments in respect of the use of simulation for learning.

Aims

• Explore and discuss the development simulated learning within a range of academic and clinical contexts.
• Share elements of good practice - with cross fertilisation of experience about the use of simulation to enhance the educational experiences for learners.
• Identify current challenges that could lead to coordinated research projects to explore the use of simulation across a range of contexts.
• Instigate review of, support and encourage professional publications.
