Here is one example of work we have already done at Oztron. This IV fluid module was created with Canberra Institute of Technology and University of Canberra to teach students the process of administering an IV fluid. It is designed for learning.
A few notes;
The Aesclepia patient bots were developed by Oztron Media for Monash University, for inter-professional learning between pharmacy and medical students.
Students interview the bots in pharmacy student or medical student groups, then discuss with the other group what diagnosis they have arrived at and why.
A few notes;
David and I met in Sydney for a brief initial discussion about what this project might entail.
Discussions included what David was hoping to get out of the project as well as what we were currently doing and would like to be doing in terms of technology.
David is interested in being able to run multiple scenarios at once to simulate the stress of making decisions in a real hospital environment.
We both left knowing that it’s the beginning of a very long process and agreed to continue the discussion via email/phone.
Welcome to the blog – we are here to share our journey as we create a serious game/simulation for use in nurse education.
We shall post our progress here – including successes and failures.
