This evaluation research focused on methods for improving simulation instruction by determining if students' knowledge about simulation subject matter improved and was retained following a simulation experience. Using a pretest/posttest approach, NCLEX-style questions pertaining to the simulation subject matter content were administered to nursing students from two prelicensure nursing courses immediately preceding the simulation, immediately following the simulation, and then again at their final examinations. These findings have helped faculty determine when their simulation instruction is effective and have provided a guide for revising their simulation teaching. While this pretest/posttest method offers insight into student learning outcomes, it perhaps more importantly creates a systematic approach for evaluating simulation instruction.
这项评估研究聚焦于通过确定学生在模拟体验后对模拟主题内容的知识是否得到提高并得以保留，来改进模拟教学的方法。采用前测/后测方法，在模拟即将开始前、模拟刚结束后以及期末考试时，对来自两门护理预执业课程的护理专业学生进行与模拟主题内容相关的NCLEX式问题测试。这些研究结果有助于教师确定他们的模拟教学何时有效，并为修订模拟教学提供了指导。虽然这种前测/后测方法能深入了解学生的学习成果，但或许更重要的是，它为评估模拟教学创造了一种系统的方法。
