TL;DR
The goal was to evaluate if student knowledge increased on postsimulation quiz scores when only a few individuals actively participated in the simulation while the other students observed.
Abstract
Nurse educators are increasing the use of simulation as a teaching strategy. Simulations are conducted typically with a small group of students. This article describes the process for implementing 6 high-fidelity simulations with a large group of undergraduate nursing students. The goal was to evaluate if student knowledge increased on postsimulation quiz scores when only a few individuals actively participated in the simulation while the other students observed.

PubMedSystematic review of the literature on simulation in nursing education.
235 Citations2012Jamil Norman
A gap in the literature pertaining to the transfer of simulation outcomes to the clinical setting is revealed, and a foundation for further research on outcomes specific to simulation and nursing education is laid.

Medium-fidelity manikins are more cost effective requiring one-fifth of the cost of high-f fidelity manikin to obtain the same effect on clinical reasoning, knowledge acquisition and student satisfaction.

Human patient simulation can be used successfully as an instructional method in nursing education and no single process was proven to be superior, but there are techniques which have been used effectively.

75 Citations2011Kelly P. Beischel
This study used a mixed methods quantitative-dominant explanatory design with concurrent qualitative data collection to examine variables affecting learning in undergraduate, beginning nursing students and found anxiety did not quantitatively mediate cognitive learning outcomes as theorized, although students qualitatively reported debilitating levels of anxiety.

Empirically supported definitions of concepts would strengthen the framework and help educators to consistently produce and identify positive outcomes, and additional rigorous research is necessary to further test relationships among concepts and the associated concept variables in the framework.

49 Citations2014Kathleen J. Richardson, Faith Claman
High-fidelity simulation (HFS) has been used to augment clinical learning, providing critical thinking and psychomotor learning opportunities in low- and high-risk clinical environments and popula- tions, but no consensus exists about the extent of HFS use for clini- cal learning opportunities.

37 Citations2013Mee Young Park, Margaret McMillan +4 more
It is asserted that simulated learning experiences need to be integrated into a curriculum underpinned by sound pedagogy, such as the PBSM, in order to ensure that learning facilitates the development of the critical thinking abilities deemed essential for nursing.
British Journal of NursingCan simulated practice learning improve clinical competence?
36 Citations2013Ruth Handley, Natalie Dodge
No clear guidance or strategies were universally used to effectively incorporate simulation within curricula, nor to evaluate or audit its effect upon student competency within clinical practice, so further evidence is required to ensure effective implementation and transferability of learning into clinical care settings.
