Workshop

Description: Simulation has become an integral part of medical education. Being an effective debriefer is the key to effective simulation, self-reflection and learning. Many clinical educators are being asked to teach simulation with little to no training. In this workshop we will teach the key components of effective debriefing such as psychological safety, the basic assumption, establishing debriefing rules, addressing learning objectives, sharing mental model, asking open-ended questions, and using silence effectively. The goal is to provide a foundation for clinicians with limited simulation education.

Learning Objectives:

Recognize key components of effective debriefing
Describe the essential phases of the debriefing process
Facilitate a debrief with emphasis on utilizing the plus/delta method of debriefing
