Inspired Teaching
 Debriefing in Simulation-Based Teaching & Learning*
Presented by the Centre for Simulation-Based Learning (CSBL)
📅 Monday, November 8th, 2021, 1-4pm ET
💻 Delivered Virtually
This interactive, half day workshop is for beginner-level educators interested in debriefing scenario-based simulation (either standardized patient or theatre-based). The workshop will provide hands-on experience with common debriefing techniques and explore challenging debriefing situations.
Learning Objectives
At the end of this virtual event, participants will be able to:
Describe the principles of effective debriefing for simulation education.
Formulate a debriefing agenda.
Practice three common debriefing techniques, including generating advocacy inquiry statements.
Handle common debriefing challenges through practice and role play.
