Medical students are satisfied with simulation-based learning (SBL) for clinical skills development. However, improving time allocation and staff training in skills labs is crucial for enhancing this effective educational method.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Clinical Skills Training
- Simulation-Based Learning
Background:
- Simulation-based learning (SBL) is increasingly utilized in medical education.
- Evaluating student satisfaction with SBL is essential for optimizing clinical teaching.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess medical students' awareness and satisfaction with SBL at King Saud University.
- To understand SBL's impact on self-satisfaction, clinical skills, and knowledge application.
- To evaluate instructor roles and student satisfaction with lab time and technology integration.
Main Methods:
- Cross-sectional analytical study involving 306 medical students (preclinical and clinical).
- Quantitative data collected via a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire.
- Satisfaction measured using Likert scale; p-values calculated via independent t-test.
Main Results:
- Overall satisfaction with SBL was high (71.10%), recognizing its effectiveness in skill acquisition and knowledge application.
- Lower satisfaction reported regarding allocated time for skills labs.
- Identified areas for improvement include accessibility and staff training.
Conclusions:
- SBL is an effective educational approach aligned with high standards.
- Addressing student learning needs requires optimizing resources like lab time and staff expertise.
- Recommendations for future research and institutional adaptation of SBL programs.
