Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to describe the design of a live emergency room simulation for nurse practitioners using augmented reality and virtual reality. The authors describe the specific design and development procedures including (1) the design of a learning analytic system for formative and summative assessment, (2) the design of the virtual space for the live event, (3) the development of a timed script for the emergency room event, and (4) the development of the virtual world in Second Life. The authors also define all the design decisions based on research on the cognitive theories that support the development of advanced problem-based learning curriculum, research of virtual immersive learning environments, and research on virtual simulations used to develop advanced skills and knowledge.
