“…Prior work in audiology simulation education includes the use of an immersive training system that was found to provide audiology students with better learning outcomes and selfconfidence than found with traditional training [7]. Simulated training has been found to help with student's self-confidence in performing audiology testing [7,21]. The use of standardized patients for training on infant hearing screening and parental counseling simulation was found to improve clinical skills and increase confidence levels of audiology students [21].…”

The use of standardized patients for training on infant hearing screening and parental counseling simulation was found to improve clinical skills and increase confidence levels of audiology students [21]. In one study, significant improvements in clinical skill levels and higher confidence were observed when students completed the simulation task of preparing an adult mannequin for an auditory brainstem response (ABR) test [13].…”

Early identification of hearing impairment and ear disorders is important, which is why hearing screening is routinely done on newborns, with regular screening recommended on children through the age of 18. Screening is also completed with adults to assess and treat hearing problems. Procedural training is needed for new Speech-Language Pathologists and nursing students as well as continuing education for those trained to perform this procedure. An audiology simulator was developed to provide an alternative to traditional face-to-face lab instruction. Using a design science approach, the development of the simulation prototype is discussed. Contributions include a useful framework for developing such a simulation of an existing process, a description of a unique artifact that supports an individualized, self-paced learning environment using context-sensitive feedback and performance assessment, and an extensible approach to supporting virtual subjects in audiological training.

“…As a result, many health and medical colleges around the world have started using simulation as a teaching technique to enhance students’ knowledge and skills. 5 Summers et al showed that video instruction was more effective than the traditional method of didactic teaching during training sessions of suturing and knot-tying skills among medical students. 6 Xeroulis et al demonstrated that self-directed video training provided equal retention of knot tying performance compared to summary expert feedback.…”

This study aimed to compare between the use of hands-on simulation training sessions versus video training on students' confidence in suturing skills. The study measured the effect of using hands-on simulation training versus video-recorded simulation training on medical students' suturing skills. Methods: This study was conducted at College of Medicine, Jouf University. All third-year medical students (n=98) were invited to participate in the study. However, only 81 (male=57, female=24) of them participated in this study. A randomized pretest-posttest control group study design was used to assess self-ratings of confidence in skills. All participants attended a lecture and were then divided into two groups: the experimental group (n=34) had simulation activities, while the control group (n=47) watched videorecorded training. A paired t-test was used to assess the difference between the pretest and post-test scores within each group. The independent t-test was used to compare the overall mean between both groups. Results: Statistically significant differences (improvements) of students' confidence in skills were detected in both groups. The mean difference between pre-and post-test scores for the experimental group was 1.47 (p<0.001), and it was 0.92 (p<0.001) for the control group. Conclusion:Both hands-on simulation training sessions and video training sessions are beneficial for teaching suturing skills for students. Furthermore, a long-term follow-up multicenter study that evaluates the impact of confidence in skin suturing skills on competence development is warranted among different university students in Saudi Arabia.

Purpose: Assessment is a crucial skill for speech-language pathologists, who rely on standardized tests to identify characteristics of speech, language, hearing, literacy, and related skill sets. Training in assessment administration is an integral part of graduate education that lays the foundation for appropriate use of these tools. Teaching students to administer standardized assessments is time intensive, can vary depending on student learning pace, and involves both general and test-specific knowledge. The current pilot study investigated the effectiveness of researcher-developed and scalable online training modules for beginning and advanced graduate students for knowledge and self-efficacy outcomes. Method: Graduate students ( n = 61) across four cohorts (two beginning and two advanced) were trained using online, asynchronous assessment training modules. The modules addressed the administration of standardized assessments using written tutorials, video demonstrations, and quizzes. Students completed pre- and posttests on knowledge and self-efficacy for administering and scoring the trained assessments before and after the online training modules. Results: We found significant pretest to posttest gains in specific assessment-related knowledge for beginning and advanced groups. Following completion of the training modules, beginning graduate students demonstrated increased self-efficacy for general assessment principles, whereas advanced graduate students started and remained high in self-efficacy at posttest. Conclusions: Using researcher-developed online training modules, both beginning and advanced graduate students improved knowledge for assessment skills. These training modules can be used as a model for developing teaching materials across a range of assessments and related topics that are scalable in the context of remote teaching and learning.
