NUR653 DESIGNING A LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

Module 4 Discussion

DQ1 Simulation

Initial Post Instructions

Simulation is an educational technology that allows students to perform clinical procedures in a controlled environment. Simulation involves a student or a group of students practicing a variety of nursing interventions on a manikin or standardized patient, depending on the scenario. Simulation gives students an opportunity to practice their clinical skills until they feel comfortable with them and make and correct errors in a safe environment. Nursing students who participate in simulation-based education programs make fewer errors in clinical settings and are better able to strengthen their critical thinking and clinical decision-making skills.

Visit the Nursing Simulation Library Links to an external site.and identify a simulation that could possibly be incorporated into the course you are developing.

How might the simulation activity augment the course?

Is the simulation a (valid) replacement for a traditional clinical experience? Why or why not? Support your position with at least two sources of scholarly evidence cited in APA format.

About the Nursing Simulation Library:

The library is hosted by Montgomery College but made possible through the generosity of the Healthcare Initiative Foundation.

The expansion of the Nursing Simulation Library is supported by the Nurse Support Program (NSPII) and funded by the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission (HSCRC). You can read more about the purpose and the provisioning of the library here: Maryland Clinical Simulation Resource Consortium.Links to an external site.

Response to Classmates

Provide a rebuttal to at least two (2) of your peers. Your response should be supported by at least one source of scholarly evidence.

DQ2 Flipgrid Conversation: Digital Education Technology Review

Initial Video

This discussion will be conducted in Flipgrid. For a reminder on how to use Flipgrid, please see: Using Flipgrid. For your initial video, you will be reviewing an educational technology that can be integrated into the nursing classroom.

There are four steps to this:

Research the educational technology.

Design: Reflect on the learning needs of your audience.

Create a script for your review that covers the topics listed below.

Record a 3- to 5-minute video review on Flipgrid. Your review must include both audio and video.

Your review should address the following:

The definition and promise of the technology.

Practical details such as cost, technical requirements for running it, accessibility, and privacy factors. Briefly share an idea for how you could use the educational technology in your teaching and course.

How effective do you feel using this educational technology as a learning activity would be at promoting learning? Why?

How efficient do you feel using this educational technology for a learning activity would be? In other words, will it save you and students time, or take it? Is there a steep learning curve?

How engaging do you feel using this educational technology for a learning activity would be? How can it contribute to the development of a collaborative learning environment?

Response to Classmates

Watch the videos recorded by your classmates and select a video that reviews a technology of interest to you. Take the time to download and explore this technology. Respond to your classmate's post in either text or video, addressing the questions below:

What challenges does your classmate need to overcome when implementing the technology in the classroom?

Would you use this in your classroom? Why or why not?

Does the application pose issues with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)?
