Poster Title: Artificial Scenarios, Authentic Outcomes: Simulation in Pediatric Education
Abstract:
Simulation learning is a teaching method that uses realistic and interactive scenarios to help you prepare and practice skills in a controlled environment. However, there is very little research regarding simulation learning in the pediatric field. So far, in simulation learning labs, there is only research based on simulation learning for everyone, but no specifics with children. Children are very different than adults, they can be more sporadic, and aren’t predictable, so they need providers who are trained in these skills. My goal for this research is to create an online prototype website that trains professionals to be able to respond to these unpredictable cases. I will be interviewing pediatric doctors/nurses to gain insight into work-related struggles and how they feel nursing school could have better prepared them. and what they could have been more prepared on in school. This software will ideally target the unpredictability of working with children, with scenarios such as a child not wanting to take medicine, or a child refusing to answer questions and it may suggest different ways to get them to open up and help them to help you to be able to do you job. The expected outcome of this is to help future pediatric nurses and doctors be more confident in their skills before going into the field.
