Can this be applied to formative assessment?

“Graduates … demonstrate competence in … the capability for continuing learning” (4.19)
“Students … are provided with regular and constructive feedback designed to help them improve their achievement” (4.53).
◦ Debriefing that emphasizes Reflection Supportive environment Fosters student self-evaluation and life-long learning skills. Facilitator as guide, not judge
◦ Adult learners (Knowles, 2005)
Autonomous and self-directed (internally motivated) Need to connect learning with their own experiences Goal-oriented Need to see relevancy of learning Need immediate feedback on progress

How is the efficacy of simulation being studied?
Simulation-based Assessment and NEASC Standards
“… encourages experimentation with [teaching] methods to improve instruction.” (5.18)
Study coordinated by National Council of State Boards of Nursing
Randomized controlled longitudinal study, replacing parts of hospital-based clinical experience with structured simulation experience (up to 50%).
