Staff as Simulation Champions (across all disciplines)

# data[].attributes.body
Final year projects.  Students can feed back on realities of practice versus simulation.  So, students get experience of designing simulations and the programme gets more authentic simulations. Win, win!

# data[].attributes.body
To help make the tech work seamlessly. Collaborators and co-designers (academics and technologists).

# data[].attributes.body
Producing material in different formats is helping students who are neurodiverse.

# data[].attributes.body
Covid facilitated pushing the boundaries.

# data[].attributes.body
An issue is getting students to be physically present and engaged. Mitigation - pre-reading in that performance in simulation is based on that pre-reading. Also importance of sharing with students the work that has gone into preparing/writing the simulation.

# data[].attributes.body
With VR - expecting to be transported elsewhere - better than reality! Mitigation - show them a variety and to demo what is possible within the VR.

# data[].attributes.body
Where a university has more than one site. Hoping that IRIS (authoring platform) that this will help.

# data[].attributes.body
Some of what's at Staffs but not on this scale. Also has an acting school - motion sensor studio. Links?

# data[].attributes.body
Phenomenon-based learning

# data[].attributes.body
Small amount of VR, some software. Medical School coming on board in next couple of years.

# data[].attributes.body
Looking at VR, immersive technology- wants to get a media hub onto campus. Work on virtual patients.

# data[].attributes.body
Immersive platform developed at Cardiff.

# data[].attributes.body
Low tech simulation - 'fake bits' and role play. Keen to develop more authentic assessment.

# data[].attributes.body
Similar set up at BCU.

# data[].attributes.body
Looking to get an immersive room, but there yet.

# data[].attributes.body
2 days of training in simulation

# data[].attributes.body
Staffs looking to create some simulations via a platform called Verte (?) that would involve branching for scenarios.
Also looking at simulated placements.

# data[].attributes.body
To support staff with understanding what's involved in simulation. To develop the digital skills - increase digital literacy. Need to embrace what's coming next and to embed this into writing simulations (eg AI).

# data[].attributes.body
Permissions to record mean that debriefs aren't recorded. Easier to record the simulation. Would see a drop in debrief engagement if recorded, anyway.

# data[].attributes.body
Spreadsheet!
Technicians to be invited into discussions on design for simulation.
At BCU - use LabLocker - can import lesson plan and tech requirements
Separate facilitator pack offers room layouts.

# data[].attributes.body
Simulation Champions - to consider how simulation can be used in other subject areas. Sports Science used it for mindfulness. CPD with partners with first responders - don't have access normally. Other applications - Town Hall scenario as a baby clinic.

# data[].attributes.body
Block of simulation - 120 hrs.   Q: do you need to reduce other learning activity to accommodate simulation?  Still issues with student self-directed learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Scalability. Two cohorts of 500 nurses. Questions around what does learning look like? Response: much larger groups of students engage in the observation and that's where most of the learning takes place.

# data[].attributes.body
New hospital environment/hub

# data[].attributes.body
Academic wishes versus what's possible, technically, and resource required.  Technical challenges to T&L.

# data[].attributes.body
Final year medical students - simulation is provided. Acute medical simulations with debriefs.

# data[].attributes.body
Increasing numbers.  Looking like double the number of students.
Also, parity of provision across sites.
