Description¶

Students recommended providing more information about the T&L approach along with sufficient time to engage in preparatory material. Some students and educators recommended increasing the time of the online simulation approach, and provide more student access to online simulation approaches overall, "recommending embedding online simulation throughout curricula". The review notes that these recommendations arose from student and educator feedback on their experiences of online simulation approaches.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Sufficient time to engage in preparatory material and more information about the T&L approach should be provided.

Claims¶

• Educators reported challenges including lacking confidence, feeling nervous, and requiring significant training and expertise when using online simulation approaches [~W]

Related Strategies¶
