Outline

Text

1.
Purpose of the workshop: Valid measurement of participants' performance in a simulated medical environment is a key requirement in simulation-based medical education research [1], and adequate debriefing of simulation scenarios is of fundamental importance for participants' learning. Tools for the assessment of performance as well as for the debriefing have been developed during the past years [2], [3]. In this workshop, participants will utilize and experience different rating tools for performance and debriefing in practice and analyse aspects of their suitability. Finally the transferability into real clinical environment will be discussed.
2.
Targeted audience: Educational scholars interested in simulation-based medical education research regardless being well or less experienced.
3.
Intended outcomes: The aim of the workshop is to familiarize participants with measurement tools for performance and debriefing used in simulation-based medical education. Ideally, the workshop can support the adequate design of studies in this field.
