ASPiH

During these challenging times, we are aware that great work by the simulation technician community has assisted or helped lead alternative ways to support delivery of simulation-based education and training in many different settings.

We are seeing adaptation and innovation everywhere, but we need to identify and understand what works best, what has failed, and what has been learned over this period.

So, the plan is to work together; sharing learning, celebrating achievements and capturing the detail, so that cohesion and consistency can be delivered for the benefit of both faculty members and learners alike.

Health Education England’s Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) team, in conjunction with the Association of Simulated Practice in Healthcare (ASPiH), wish to develop a collection of short ‘How to...’ guides that describe the innovations and adaptations that you have helped introduce or apply to your work. Examples might include the different methods you have found to stream, capture, share and make remote sessions interactive and experiential. The main question is, how have you responded to and proactively offered solutions to the challenges we have faced?

The collection of guides will explain how other people could apply the technology and technical solutions you are using. The intention is to collate a range of technical solutions that can be aligned to existing or new learning and training resources that will also be made available through the Learning Hub, located HERE.
