Strengths and Gaps
• Junior level Med-Surg simulation– ORIF 4 hours post-op
– Data Collection: what do you want to know?
• Determine what to assess (NPSG?)
• Define assessment items (what will it look like when ….?)
• Develop data collection form (objective)
– What is your benchmark?
– Data Review : what do you do with assessment information?

Achieving and sustaining the benchmark• SpO2 reassessment following
application of O2 via nasal cannula– When do students learn SpO2 and
respiratory assessment?
– What opportunities do students have for deliberate repeat practice of assessment item? (cognitive, psychomotor, affective)
– What gaps are identified in curriculum/ course content / clinical?
– What is within our power to change & what do others need to “own”. (CI’s, students)

Simulation in Competency Assessment• Measure learning outcomes• Objective measurement of clinical
ability• Reliable (consistent) and valid
(representative)• Evaluate teaching/program
effectiveness• Senior level Med-Surg course
– Hypovolemic Shock client– Theoretical framework

CAS Development
• Identify learning objectives
• Design scenario and grading rubric
• Run through – multiple learner levels
• Re-design scenario and grading rubric
• Run through
• Pilot – information gathering
The University of Portland

CAS Development
• Data analysis– Define test items? What will it look
like if…?– Test item validity?– Level for cohort– Interrater reliability
• Refine grading rubric• Test with “grading”• Data collection

Achieving and sustaining the benchmark
• NG output description– When do students learn what suction is and
how to evaluate output?
– What opportunities do students have for deliberate repeat practice of assessment item? (cognitive, psychomotor, affective)
– What gaps are identified in curriculum/ course content / clinical?
– What is within our power to change & what do others need to “own”. (students & CI’s)

Nursing Education Research
• Evaluating student application of theory– Example:
“How Should I Touch You? Instructing Male Nursing Students on
Touch.”
The University of Portland
The

Nursing
Why an intimate touch lab?• The centrality of touch in the discipline of
nursing is documented• Nursing literature is completely lacking
information on how to instruct male students on the use of touch
• Nurse educators’ lack of attention to men and touch issues has led to feelings of resentment and confusion (Paterson et al., 1996).
• Male students fear that their touch might result in false accusations of sexual inappropriateness from female clients (O’Lynn, 2004, 2007).
• Simulations provide an active learning strategy for practicing and evaluating nursing assessment and skills.

Simulation in research
• Quasi-experimental, using a comparison/ control group
• Survey and simulation performance data collected and analyzed
• Data examined for possible differences between the two groups.
• Nursing is an applied discipline, skill performance must be evaluated

Implications• Implications For Nursing Practice
– Optimally prepared students for practice
– Deliberate practice “ideal”
• For Nursing Research– Does an intimate touch simulation
lab improve male student comfort with providing intimate touch?
– Does a pre-clinical intimate touch simulation improve transferability?

Clinical Faculty Development Simulations

What about clinical faculty?
Clinical Faculty Experience– Expert clinical = Expert faculty?– New faculty orientation – what’s
covered?– Experienced faculty continuing
education– Barriers to immediate and consistent
feedback on teaching

Clinical Faculty Development
• Didactic
– Recorded simulations of poor and best practices
– Facilitated discussion on teaching practices
• Active participation
– Clinical faculty simulation with student
– Reflection/debriefing
The University of Portland

Faculty evaluation of simulation
• Learner-focused clinical vs. teacher focused
• Teaching strategies developed and enhanced
• Verbal and nonverbal messages highlighted

Recommendations• For Nursing Practice
– Optimally prepare clinical faculty for practice
– Deliberate practice – “ I don’t think anything is as valuable as walking through it – then reflecting on events and language.”
• For Nursing Research– Transferability from simulation lab to
clinical setting– Application for preceptors with new grads
or new hires
