This article describes an innovative approach to student learning using virtual simulation in a web-based dosage calculation nursing course. This new technology was implemented in a baccalaureate generic nursing program. The project was designed to improve student test scores and increase self-confidence. Using this technology allowed students to practice their skills and receive feedback in real time. Feedback from students was mostly favorable. Higher performing students found it repetitive; lower performing students showed improvement in their scores.
