Why Prebrief?
Prebriefing is considered a critical step in the virtual simulation learning process. The way an educator introduces the virtual simulation sets the stage for the learner’s experience and subsequent interactions. Current evidence suggests that prebriefing increases confidence, learning and the overall effectiveness of a simulation.
The goals of the prebrief are to:
- Establish an environment of integrity, trust and respect.
- Set the stage for the simulation activity.
- Assist the learners to achieve the scenario learning objectives.
