Simulation in Nursing Education

Simulation in some form has been used as a teaching strategy in nursing education since the first nurse tried to teach the first nursing student how to do a task properly. As our understanding of teaching and learning progresses, so do the simulations that we use. The second edition of Simulation in Nursing Education: From Conceptualization to Evaluation, written by nurse educators and other health care professionals from a variety of allied health programs, refines and highlights the evidence-based practices in simulation that have emerged over the past six years. This book is intended as a resource for faculty as they harness and shape the learning environments of tomorrow to create meaningful, realistic, and evidence-based simulation experiences for their students. - Back cover.
