The Student Experience Using Virtual Reality Simulation to Teach Decontamination

Virtual Reality Experience: Immersion, Sense of Presence, and Cybersickness

“…Further training programs should pay attention to avoid an excessive increase in stress that would lead to cognitive overload, disrupting working memory, leading to a reduction of performance (Bong, Fraser, & Oriot, 2014). Finally, the participants stated the immersion in VR improved their learning through this experiential environment, as has been previously described (Pucher et al, 2014;Ulrich et al, 2014;Foronda et al, 2016). However, the study was not designed to confirm these allegations.…”

“…Immersion time was reduced (maximum 15 minutes) to avoid eyestrain. Nevertheless, participants stated VR material induced discomfort as in other studies (Ulrich, Farra, Smith, & Hodgson, 2014;Foronda, Godsall, & Trybulski, 2013). This element seems critical: a high level of cybersickness or discomfort could suppress or decrease the level of SoP.…”

Ergonomik Bilgisayar Kullanımına Yönlendiren Bir Asistan Sistem Tasarımı

“…Bilgisayarlar hesaplama ve karmaşık işlemleri yürütmede çok başarılı cihazlardır. Bir de ek olarak insanlara ait yetenekler de kazandırıldığında bilgisayarlar ve bilgisayarlı sistemler zeki insansı robotlara [1][2][3] ya da biyomedikal [4][5][6][7][8][9] ve bilgisayarlı görme [10][11] alanlarda kullanılan sanal asistanlara dönüşmektedir. Asistan niteliğindeki bu sistemler; bilgisayarlardan maksimum düzeyde yararlanırken sağlığımızı da göz ardı etmememizi sağlayan yardımcı sistemlerdir.…”

Acquisition of Fire Safety Knowledge and Skills With Virtual Reality Simulation

“…4 VRS presents a creative teaching method to deliver skill-based education, such as fire safety, in an experiential manner rather than through traditional didactic theory and competency checklist formats. [5][6] Using 3-D animation and an interface with computer technology, VRS immerses the learner in a virtual realm that allows for active engagement and interaction within a realistic environment. 5 The Virtual Electrosurgery Skill Trainer (VEST © ) is a virtual reality platform developed with funding from the National Institute of Health that is equipped with an education module designed to actively engage a learner in recognizing critical risk factors of OR fires.…”

In the realm of surgical medicine, Olasky and colleagues communicated both the state of the science of VRS in the education of behavioral, technical, and surgical procedure skills, along with latest VRS educational training products.…”
