    Terms

    • Actor: A method of debriefing in which an observer states what was observed or performed in a simulation activity (advocacy) or shares critical or appreciative insights about it explicitly (advocacy) and then asks the learners for an explanation of their thoughts or actions (inquiry).

    • Formative Assessment: A type of assessment wherein the facilitator’s focus is on the participant’s progress toward goal attainment through preset criteria; a process for an individual or group engaged in a simulation activity for the purpose of providing constructive feedback for that individual or group to improve.### Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence
    • Intelligence refers to understanding, comprehension, and power of discerning.
    • The term "Artificial Intelligence" was coined in 1956 and refers to the science and engineering of making intelligent machines.
    • AI in healthcare simulation often refers to underlying programming that provides physiological or system-based algorithm changes based on user inputs.

    Assessment

    • Assessment refers to processes that provide information about or feedback on individual participants, groups, or programs.
    • It involves measurement of knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) to improve future outcomes.
    • Assessors must have specific and substantial training, expertise, and competency in assessment.

    Augmented Reality

    • Augmented Reality (AR) is a type of virtual reality that overlays digital information on real-world objects.
    • AR enhances the user experience by making invisible information perceptible to human senses.
    • AR is a spectrum of mixed-reality simulation that is part way between the real world and the virtual world.

    Avatar

    • An avatar is a virtual object used to represent a physical object (e.g., a human) in a virtual world.
    • Avatars can have facial expressions, physical responses, and can be controlled by users through a mouse, keyboard, or joystick.

    Back Story or Backstory

    • A back story is a narrative that provides a history and/or background for a fictional character(s) or situation.
    • It is created to support simulation activities and can include information provided to participants, standardized patients, and staff.

    Behavioral Skills

    • Behavioral Skills refer to the range of activities encompassed within the category of interpersonal interaction.
    • Examples include bedside manner, teamwork, leadership, and communication.

    Brief or Briefing

    • A brief is an activity that provides essential information about a simulation scenario.

    • Cognitive Load refers to the amount of information that the working memory of a participant or facilitator can manage at any given point.
    • Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) was proposed by Sweller et al. (1998) based on the working memory model introduced by Baddeley (1992).

    CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials)

    • CONSORT is a set of standards for reporting trials.
    • The standards aim to ensure that information is reported transparently and accurately.### Computer-Based Simulation

    • Subsets of computer-based simulation include virtual patients, virtual reality task trainers, and immersive virtual reality simulation.

    Etymology

    • The word "report" comes from Latin "reportare" meaning "to carry back, bear back, bring back," figuratively "to write (an account) for information or record."

    • Simulation is a model or mock-up for purposes of experiment or training.

    Conceptual Fidelity

    • In health care simulation, conceptual fidelity ensures that all elements of the scenario relate to each other in a realistic way so that the case makes sense as a whole to the learner(s).
    • To maximize conceptual fidelity, cases or scenarios should be reviewed by subject matter experts and pilot-tested prior to use with learners.

    Debrief and Debriefing

    • Debrief is a formal, collaborative, reflective process within the simulation learning activity.
    • Debriefing is a process of moving toward assimilation and accommodation of learning to future situations.
    • Debriefing should foster the development of clinical judgment and critical thinking skills.

    Deliberate Practice

    • Deliberate practice is a theory of general psychology that states the differences between expert performers and normal adults reflect a life-long period of deliberate effort to improve performance in a specific domain.
    • A systematically designed activity that has been created specifically to improve an individual's performance in a given domain.

    Discrete Simulation

    • A discrete simulation is a simulation that relies on variables changed only at a countable number of points in time.
    • Each event occurs at a particular instant in time and marks a change of state in the system.

    Distributed Simulation

    • Distributed simulation is the concept of simulation on-demand, made widely available wherever and whenever it is required.
    • A set of simulations operating in a common environment and distributed to learners.

    Distance Simulation

    • Distance simulation is implementing a simulation or training at a physical distance from the participant(s).
    • May include operating a simulator via remote access or remote-controlled.

    Durational Simulation

    • A durational simulation is the opposite of a discrete simulation in that changes occur in the system between simulations.
    • A simulation that models the operation of a system as a continuous sequence of events in time.
