“…In a study by Guvenc et al (2016), simulation based education using SPs was considered as an appropriate active education method for coping with language barriers of students . A study by Perry et al (2015) pointed out that e-simulation effective methods that participants are understanding individuals who are language barriers. In the present study, the simulation allowed the students to experience difficulties they are likely to encounter when communicating with people speaking a foreign language.…”

The aim of the study evaluates cultural sensitivity in healthcare services among senior nursing students to patients with different cultural backgrounds. The study had a one-group pre-posttest model descriptive study design. Thirty-four nursing students taking the courses Emergency Care and Diabetes were included into the study. Standardized patients were used as a simulation technique. The difference between intercultural sensitivity scores before the simulation and those after the simulation was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Even though there were no differences between intercultural sensitivity scores before the simulation and the scores after the simulation, simulation based education is an effective teaching method in enhancement of cultural sensitivity.

“…Other studies that have used mainly objective measures report that e-simulation approaches can improve skills such as hand-washing, [7] electrocardiography, [26] urinary catheterization, [27] and identification/management of patient deterioration. [17] The Web-based programs described earlier that reported an evaluation [17,23,24] were also found to be acceptable to the targeted learners.…”

“…An e-simulation program titled: Communicating with patients from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, case study: Ms Shu Fen Chen, was developed and positively evaluated by 60 nurses and allied heath staff. [24] As the engagement of learners is dependant on the authenticity of case scenarios, the research team selected a clinical context (chest pain) and cultural variation (Chinese culture) which was consistent with local conditions. Patient actors including an actor "interpreter" were used in the videoed scenario.…”

“…[12] As a relatively new teaching resource, this type of simulation is yet to accumulate a comprehensive body of evidence of its effectiveness for learning. [24] Some studies of e-simulation (with programs based either locally on a personal computer, or on the worldwide web) have been shown to be largely as effective as other teaching meth-ods in teaching clinical skills. For example, a randomized controlled trial involving first-year nursing students in learning pre-and post-operative skills on a computer screen or in a skills laboratory had similar learning outcomes.…”

The time is right for Web-based clinical simulation in nursing education

E-simulation involves goal-based role play using digital simulations that take place via a computer screen. Learners interact with the program via multi-media applications such as animation and video, graphics, sound, vision, and text through the use of advanced Web authoring tools. When the simulation is Web-based (via a remote server), this allows data collection and real-time feedback. We aimed to explore how the Internet has been utilized for the purposes of e-simulation in healthcare education. We describe published resources focusing on pre-registration education for undergraduate nursing and medicine students. Many studies in these domains have developed e-simulation as components of research, but we identified only four that were openly accessible (without fees). We describe four Web-based simulation programs that will benefit learners through better understanding of cardiopulmonary resuscitation; patient deterioration recognition and management; communication with the mentally ill; and knowledge of cultural competence. These programs have the advantage of being available across borders and are accessible to a broad audience wherever there is adequate Internet access. The approach appears to be highly acceptable to learners and offers the opportunity for repeated practice. The time is right for greater distribution and sharing of Web-based simulation resources for teaching in both undergraduate and at professional levels. Web-based simulation programs are a valuable resource that can be used in combination with traditional forms of laboratory and classroom teaching, in order to facilitate the development of students' clinical competence.

“…In 2018, 29% of Australia's resident population were born overseas (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2019). Consequently, in order to provide safe, high quality human services, it is important for professionals to be appropriately responsive to cultural and linguistic diversity (Perry et al, 2015). Training and educating professionals in cultural competence is necessary to develop a culturally sensitive, congruent and responsive human services workforce (Alexander, 2008).…”

This pilot study explored the experiences of undergraduate students studying disability who undertook a three-week international Work Integrated Learning (WIL) placement in Brunei Darussalam. Presented are the students’ perspectives of the value of the international WIL and its impact on their personal and professional growth. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted and transcripts analysed using a thematic and iterative qualitative approach compatible with phenomenology. Three major themes exploring student experiences emerged: ‘valued experiences’, ‘cultural dissonance’ and ‘personal and professional growth’. Four recommendations relate to ‘selection interviews, comprehensive pre-departure sessions, accommodation, and quality university supervision’. Indicative findings suggest the placement had a valuable and positive impact on the students, increasing their cultural competence and assisting with their personal and professional growth. Additionally, the findings provide further insight on what makes international WIL placements successful and promotes optimal learning.
