Area of Science:

Medical Education
Simulation Technology
Experiential Learning

Background:

Telesimulation uses telecommunication for remote learning, but student experiences and learning assessments are not well understood.
Understanding the nuances of telesimulation is crucial for optimizing its use in medical training.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate medical students' emotional experiences and self-identified learning during telesimulation activities.
To apply the Kolb experiential learning framework and qualitative analysis to assess telesimulation outcomes.

Main Methods:

Fourth-year medical students participated in three telesimulation sessions.
Surveys assessed satisfaction (N=114), emotional experience, and self-identified learning.
Qualitative content analysis of free-text responses identified key themes (N=66).

Main Results:

Over 90% of students reported high satisfaction with simulation realism, debrief quality, and group size.
Identified emotional themes included anxiety, confidence, team dynamics, and patient interaction.
Learning themes encompassed communication, emotional management, differential diagnosis, and medical knowledge.

Conclusions:

Telesimulation fosters rich emotional, cognitive, and behavioral experiences for medical students.
Findings support further investigation of telesimulation for medical education.
The Kolb framework aids in defining learning outcomes from simulation experiences.
