Simulation game (in my opinion, simulation game of health profession in a hospital or clinic) and education
I thing virtual. game can help medical students.. but not for practice.. just knowledge
@Putra Rahadyan: Thank you for your answer. I think that it certainly not for practice because the student would not "practice" their medical expertise but how do you think about their mind. Do you think that it could help them to get "medical pattern" of thinking (clinical reasoning), especially when the games could represent the real condition of practice?
Okey... If like that, I think maybe virtual game can make that condition..certainly with a good virtual games .. maybe like the one on google play
Hi Juanita, I am quite sure that it will shape their pattern of clinical thinking. And in the future, I think that it will be a promising strategy for medical education. But, for sure, it will need a lot of research on that i.e. the type of games, how big and complexes of simulation, and the student it selves (how it fit with student, which grade student, what type of student).
And here, in Indonesia, I think that such device is still underdeveloped since it needs good IT, good internet capacity, and virtual-games developers. I really hope that I can learn much about simulation-virtual-games and its' application in medical education. It will be very nice if I could join or follow you and your research.
