Assessing The Satisfaction Of Learning With Use Of Simulation In Medical University

Abstract

The article defines the necessity to change the form of medical training according to the requirements of Federal State Educational Standards of Higher Education and the conditions of digitalization in society and the health care system. Information technology that allows solving topical problems in education due to the current circumstances is analyzed. The perspective and lack of research on issues of information technology usage within the system of higher medical education are emphasized. A variety of organizational and technical capabilities has been determined, their achievement being possible due to the increase in the intellectual activity of university lecturers and students based on using information technology. The experience of medical specialties training in the simulation centre of Saratov State Medical University named after V.I. Razumovsky is observed. The results of subjective assessment of student satisfaction are presented. The conclusions on the advantages of training in a simulation centre aligned with the general idea of information technology usage in the process of medical training are made. The article emphasizes the importance of the information literacy of a physician, as well as their ability to work in the context of the healthcare system digitalization. The need for changing the direction of physicians' training, adapting forms and methods of education to the modern requirements is determined. The pedagogical conditions for the functioning of simulation centers with hardware and software are noted, among which is the consideration of the simulator's capabilities to simulate practically significant clinical situations, preparatory organizational work, innovative simulation technology.
