Simulation faces the ideological struggle of standardisation and neoliberalism - yet learning should be more liberal and learner centred. Remember - we are all on DIFFERENT learning tracjectories

Always aim to ‘Tailor sim’ for learners and ‘not one size fits all’

@brick_ems @SimBricks We think so? It’s a nice space

Psychological safety is a complex and multilayered construct.

It’s not a simple ‘bolt on’ but a carefully co-constructed phenomena

Lots of shiny new AI applications in simulation.

Remember, AI not the answer to everything.

Make AI transform not just for the sake of

It’s Friday!

Time to close the laptops, power down the manikins and have a great weekend!

Thank you for all that you, the good people of the simulation community, do!

Thank you for being awesome 🙌🏽

The art 🎨 and science🧪of facilitation

More than controlling the physiology, facilitators need to control the pedagogy and learning in the moment.

Extending learners just enough to create the space to experiment & grow
