How One University is Gamifying Biomedical Education

Hans Wernke's curator insight, November 8, 2018 8:05 AM
Interesting. I am a firm believer in the power of gamification to increase engagement and enhance outcomes in learning. Whether it is a true game such as CD4 hunter, or a learning platform that uses gaming principles to increase comprehension and message retention, results tend to be very positive.

Evaluating Healthcare Simulation

This website was created to provide healthcare simulation educators and researchers with freely available instruments we have developed for evaluating different aspects of simulation-based education (SBE). We believe that it is imperative to go well beyond satisfaction and confidence when evaluating SBE as pedagogy. It is equally important that we use instruments with established reliability and validity when evaluating outcomes.


Our work, and that of other simulation researchers, has led to five instruments that have been found useful for those working in education and clinical environments. Click on the links below or the tabs above to learn more about each instrument--why it was developed, reliability and validity, and suggestions for how to best use the instruments. We believe these instruments should be freely available and you can access them though the Obtain Instrument page.
