Table 2 Student interview guide
From: Facilitators’ experiences with virtual simulation and their impact on learning
1. How many virtual simulations did you play? Do you play any of them more than once, if so, how many times? Were there any barriers to your ability to access/play the virtual simulations? |
2. Can you tell me about your experience with the virtual simulations you played as part of the Virtu-WIL program? |
3. Were the virtual simulations you played helpful to your learning? If so, what do you think you learned by using virtual simulation? Can you give me an example? |
4. I’m going to ask you now to think about your clinical practice, after using the virtual simulations. Did the virtual simulation help to prepare you for clinical practice? If no, can you tell me about that? If yes, can you give me an example of how the VS helped you prepare for clinical practice? |
5. Thinking about the virtual simulations, do you have any examples of how they influenced your actual clinical practice? Do you have any other examples of how the simulations influenced your clinical practice? |
6. In your opinion, what was it about the VS design or learning process that helped you prepare for clinical? |
7. Was someone from practice present during your debrief (i.e., a nurse, lab technician)? If so, what role did they play? |
8. Do you have any recommendations you’d like to share regarding using virtual simulations to enhance your clinical practice? |
