Cleary, Timothy J.; Konopasky, Abigail; La Rochelle, Jeffrey S.; Neubauer, Brian E.; Durning, Steven J.; Artino, Anthony R., Jr. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2019
To be safe and effective practitioners and learners, medical professionals must be able to accurately assess their own performance to know when they need additional help. This study explored the metacognitive judgments of 157 first-year medical students; in particular, the study examined students' self-assessments or calibration as they engaged in…

Cook, David A.; Aljamal, Yazan; Pankratz, V. Shane; Sedlack, Robert E.; Farley, David R.; Brydges, Ryan – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2019
Self-regulated learning is optimized when instructional supports are provided. We evaluated three supports for self-regulated simulation-based training: practice schedules, normative comparisons, and learning goals. Participants practiced 5 endoscopy tasks on a physical simulator, then completed 4 repetitions on a virtual reality simulator. Study…

Johannesson, Eva; Silen, Charlotte; Kvist, Joanna; Hult, Hakan – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2013
Learning manual skills is a fundamental part of health care education, and motor, sensory and cognitive learning processes are essential aspects of professional development. Simulator training has been shown to enhance factors that facilitate motor and cognitive learning. The present study aimed to investigate the students' experiences and…

Dankbaar, Mary E. W.; Alsma, Jelmer; Jansen, Els E. H.; van Merrienboer, Jeroen J. G.; van Saase, Jan L. C. M.; Schuit, Stephanie C. E. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2016
Simulation games are becoming increasingly popular in education, but more insight in their critical design features is needed. This study investigated the effects of fidelity of open patient cases in adjunct to an instructional e-module on students' cognitive skills and motivation. We set up a three-group randomized post-test-only design: a…

Tsai, Sing-Ling; Chai, Sin-Kuo; Hsieh, Li-Feng; Lin, Shirling; Taur, Fang-Meei; Sung, Wen-Hsu; Doong, Ji-Liang – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2008
Cost-benefit management trends in Taiwan healthcare settings have led nurses to perform more invasive skills, such as Port-A cath administration of medications. Accordingly, nurses must be well-prepared prior to teaching by the mentor and supervision method. The purpose of the current study was to develop a computer-assisted protocol using virtual…
