Abstract
- Virtual simulation, using avatars through synchronous, multiplayer virtual worlds, is an engaging and meaningful way to teach high-level skills online in nurse education. The aim of this article was to present strategies for incorporation of virtual simulation in nurse to education and to provide an approach to get started. Virtual simulation may be used by educators to enhance lecture or web-based courses, replicate high-risk clinical experiences, act as clinical makeup, foster intradisciplinary and interdisciplinary education, and address practical challenges and barriers to contemporary nursing education.
