Description: Participants make decisions in a safe environment, witness the consequences, and evaluate the effectiveness of their actions.,Application of Educational Theories,Social Learning Theory Self-efficacy or social change occurs through modeling and
3、reinforcement learning. Educator designs a simulation to teach a skill, pattern, or role play, and then designs additional simulations where the target behavior is reinforced. Simulation provides planned stimuli organized in a way so as to give the participant opportunity to respond. Experiential Le

16、lation is a vehicle for translating classroom knowledge into a safe learning environment (Leigh, 2008). Simulation allows learners to function in an environment that is as close as possible to an actual clinical situation and provides them an opportunity to “think on their feet, not in their seat” (Rauen, 2004). Simulation promotes the use of critical and evaluative thinking.,CONCLUSION (CONT.),The main benefits of simulation can be summarized as: experimentation in limited time, reduced analy
