James P. Miller – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Simulation-based medical education (SBME) is a proven instructional method for increasing knowledge gains in medical learners. However, it is difficulty to implement because of cost, technical considerations, and issues of accessibility. This experimental, mixed-methods study of senior-level nursing students sought to understand what impact an…

Carbonell Carrera, Carlos; Bermejo Asensio, Luis A. – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2017
Landscape interpretation is needed for navigating and determining an orientation: with traditional cartography, interpreting 3D topographic information from 2D landform representations to get self-location requires spatial orientation skill. Augmented reality technology allows a new way to interact with 3D landscape representation and thereby…
