Study 2 Study 1 The Purpose Of Study  Compare effectiveness of two instructional methods to teach  specific nursing education content. Study Results  Suggest use of a teaching strategy involving human patient simulator HPS method made a (+) difference in the nursing students' ability to answer questions on a test of cognitive skills.  Use of (HPS) as a tool for learning provides a mechanism by which students can participate in: ,[object Object]
 practice skills
observe outcomes from clinical decisionsSinclair, B., Ferguson, K. 2009. The Purpose Of Study  Assess students' perceptions of self-efficacy for nursing practice through use of a mixed-methods study integrating simulations into a nursing theory course. Students were exposed to a combination of lecture and simulation Study Results:  Students reported higher levels of satisfaction, effectiveness and consistency with their learning style when exposed to the combination of lecture, simulation and audio-visual technologies. Data suggest students' self-confidence may be increased through use of simulation as a method of teaching and learning. Brannan, J.D., White, A., &  Bezanson,  J. L. 2008;

The mandate tochangetheprevailingculturefromopinion-basedpracticetoevidence-basedpractice EBP has influencedmodelsdesigned as decision –makingapproachestoadvancetheintegration of simulationeducationmethods in highereducationhealthprofessionalprograms, specificallyamongundergraduate and graduateeducationnursingprograms.

Directingfinancial, human and physical capital towardtheintegration of simulation and technologymethodswithinexistingnursingeducationcurriculumprogramsis a shiftoccurring in manyinstitutionalsettings.

  12. Step 5 involves a highlyinteractiveprocesstobuildcapacities. Thisemphasisoncapacityincludesthecriticalappraisal of administration, faculty and students. Working as a collaborative and team, simulation and technology trainings, simulationcurriculumplanning and timelinedevelopment emerge as prioritiesforstrategyimplementation. Identification of keyspecialtyfaculty roles and responsibilities, coursespecificcriticalbehaviors, and indicatorsformonitoring are essentialtopreparatory and pilotingstagesforsimulationintegration. The transition from a didactic environment into clinical practice is reported as a time of fear and uncertainty among nursing students. Offering positive experiencesbyadministrators and facultytoembraceSimulation Centers wouldbe of benefittonursingstudents’ education. Simulationeducationmethodology as a strategyforteaching and learning can augmentthedidacticenvironment and offer a win-winsituation. Regardless of thestudent’slevel (LeveloneorLevelfour), nurse educatorsmustconcernthemselveswiththecontenttaught in thedidacticsettingisproficient and transferableintocriticalthinking, skillacquisition, and problem-solvingbehaviors[13=14].

Thecumulativebenchmarkindicators are expectedtoprovide data forprogramanalysis in thecontext of progress and evaluationwithintheformativeprocess. Theinformationgathered can define significantfindingsforpreparatorystage, pilotingstage and theimplementationstageforsettingthestageforintegration. Byutilizingsimulation as a methodforlearning, it prepares studentsfortheir role as nurses and can reduce therisk of injury, error, ordeath of patients. Enhancingthelearning of students and ultimatelypromotingthebestpossiblepractice in theclinicalsettingis central. Simulationeducationmethodologyoffers a uniquewaytoeducatethenextgeneration of nurses.
