The call for evidence-based teaching charges nurse educators to analyze brain-based learning and teaching methods grounded in neuroscientific principles. Simulation offers premier opportunities to integrate best practices in teaching while implementing brain-based principles. This session presents the basic tenets of brain-based learning and its intersections with simulation, creating a solid foundation for further exploration in future webinars.

Listening to this webinar will allow you to:

  1. Describe current neuroscientific principles that inform learning in nursing education
  2. Discuss the infusion of brain-based learning strategies in nursing education, nursing practice, and simulation
  3. Analyze the value of simulation, grounded in brain science, in ensuring learning professionalism, clinical judgment, and in the provision of safe nursing care.

This webinar is part of our "Renovating your simulation program: Tools to help" series, which will offer invaluable insights throughout 2025. Upcoming topics include:

  • Building connections: Generational learning and simulation
  • Your simulation toolbox: Innovations in simulation
  • Tools of the trade: Lessons Learned in Building and renovating Simulation Programs
