Workshop: Extended reality learning: Experience the new frontier of healthcare education
Experience the power and effectiveness of extended reality healthcare education. Join our team of senior clinician educators and digital innovators as we use Virtual Reality (VR) headsets to transport healthcare learners into the metaverse. Workshop participants can use an established VR software platform to participate in a live facilitated, simulation-based learning session. The immersive and interactive environment uses contextual, case-based approaches to improve engagement and learning outcomes of physiological principles and patient assessments for common clinical presentations.
Learning objectives:- Become familiar with VR and XR as platforms for medical education
- Experience VR and XR learning
- Identify a broad range of contexts for the application of a novel, effective, highly accessible and economical alternative to traditional healthcare education
