SIMULATIONS


2/19

Introduction

Simulation creates an environment

resembling real life situation

It helps the students to practice and gain

experience as in a real life situation

Can practice confidently when, exposed

to real life situation.


3/19

Meaning

Simulation is a teaching technique used

particularly in management education

and training in which a real lifesituation and values are simulated by

substitute displaying similar

characteristics.

International dictionary of education


4/19

Type of Simulation

There are three of simulation namely

a) Simulation exercise,

b) Simulation game and

c) Role playing


5/19

Simulation exercise

A controlled representation of a piece of

reality that learners can manipulate to

better understand the corresponding real

situation.


6/19

Simulation game

A game that represents real; life

situations in which learners compete

according to a set of rules in order to win

or achieve an objective.


7/19

Role Playing

A form of drama in which learners

spontaneously act roles in an interaction

involving problems or challenges inhuman relations


8/19

Purposes

Simulation is intended to help

students practice decision making and

problem solving skills and to develophuman interaction abilities in a

controlled and safe setting.


9/19

Purposes

Through an active involvement in a

simulation exercise, a game or a role

playing situation, the student achieves

cognitive, affective and psychomotor

outcomes.


10/19

Purposes

Simulation provides a chance to apply

principles and theories students have

learned and to see how and when these

principles work.


11/19

Purposes

To learn and test carious approaches in

a setting where patients cannot be hurt

and where wrong decisions can alwaysbe reminded. It is hoped that the

knowledge gained through simulation

can be easily transferred to the real

patient care settings.


12/19

Value of Simulation

Simulation ensures safe nursing practice

by nursing students through bridging the

gap theory and practice

Simulation is an effective technique to

learn psychomotor skills


13/19

Value of Simulation

Simulation helps the students to develop

critical thinking abilities and problem

solving skills Simulation not only helps the students to

learn the decision making process but

also provides feedback regarding the

consequences of the decision made


14/19

Value of Simulation

Simulation, especially the role play

enables students to empathize with the

real life situations

By way of simulation teacher can easily

inculcated proper attitude among nursingstudents


15/19

Value of Simulation

Simulation can also be used to evaluate

students

a) Which teaching method would you

select?

b) Justify your selections?


16/19

c) List down the techniques you would

adopt in order to make the teaching

more interesting and comprehensible

d) Identify the techniques in which you

are lacking proficiency.

e) Explain the measures that will assist

you in attaining proficiency in theidentified techniques


17/19

Role of the Teacher

Planning,

Facilitating and

Debriefing.


18/19

Advantages of Simulations

Simplifies the complexity of real life

Highly student centered

Facilitates peer learning

Excellent opportunity to learn from

mistakes


19/19

Disadvantages

Generalize the result of a single

simulation

Particular simulation cannot be blindlyapplied to another situation

Expensive in terms of time, money and

energy
