Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Simulation is a display that is close to real life which may be performed using computer software, role playing, case study or games and it engages the learners actively in the course content. Teaching with the use of simulation method is effective for creating a more realistic situation and the possibility of repeating the situation for the learners. This paper has been written using library sources, internet, and a literature search in databases such as pro Quest, pub med and Google scholar using the key words: simulation, health education, and nursing education. The research shows that the use of simulation method in nursing is increasing. In addition, simulation can increase the motivation of the learners. However, as simulators are the simplified type of real equipments and they create habits which aren’t exactly the response required in the real activity, they may have negative or dangerous results.
