Keywords:
Simulation-based teaching (SBT), medical education, clinical competence, simulation technologies, high-fidelity simulation, virtual reality, standardized patients, OSCE, objective structured clinical examination, clinical skills assessment, patient safety, competency-based educationAbstract
Simulation-based teaching (SBT) has become a key approach in medical education, enhancing students’ clinical competence and learning experience. It includes methods such as high-fidelity mannequins, virtual reality, standardized patients, and hybrid simulations, providing a safe environment to practice both technical and non-technical skills, ultimately improving patient safety.
