Evaluation Simulation

Learning Objectives

  1.  Determine the appropriate method of evaluation in simulation-based education.
  2. Understand the difference between formative evaluation, summative evaluation, and high-stakes evaluation.
  3. Understand key criteria set by INACSL, including the necessary elements and their application.

Summary of Key Points

  • Introducing the method of evaluation
  • Define formative evaluation, summative evaluation, and high-stakes evaluation.
  • Discuss the application of the INACSL Standard related to participant evaluation.
  • Identify the evaluation processes in the design phase to ensure the quality and effectiveness of simulation-based experiences.
  • Consider the input from participants, peers, and stakeholders in the evaluation process.
  • Importance of clearly communicating with the participants related to the type of evaluation method used in the simulation, whether it be formative, summative, or high-stakes, before or at the start of the simulation.
