Free Online Modules for Simulation Pedagogy!
The University of Washington has developed online modules for teaching the pedagogy of simulation. Most of them are up now and ready for use. Because this project was funded by a government grant, you need to register (for free) to take a course. Three more modules will be coming online soon. Please take a look, tell your friends. The website is http://collaborate.uw.edu.
Simulation Research: NCSBN underway!
As the discussion continues about how much simulation is enough, research is underway to examine the issue. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing is in Phase II conducting research on clinical and simulation teaching using 3 study groups: Clinical with < 10% simulation, 25% simulation, and 50% simulation. You can track the progress of this study at https://www.ncsbn.org/2094.htm
