SPECIAL STUDENT EVENT

The application of virtual reality (VR) in health professions education, both for teaching technical skills and for broader clinical听decision-making, has been a topic of discussion. A less known but emerging area of interest is the use of VR as a听medium to witness, or be in the first-person perspective of, a social challenge through immersive storytelling.

Although the use of VR in cognitive and behavioural sciences has been active for decades, increased mainstream听attention is now arising on whether VR can raise awareness and improve education on social issues in health听professions education.

The Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning (SCSIL) is inviting interested 苹果淫院 Faculty of听Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS) students to register to view curated VR experiences centered on such issues听as racism, Indigenous health, and homelessness, to name a few.

You will then be invited to provide a brief audio听message with your feedback on: 1) your general impressions on the experiences viewed, and 2) whether you听believe this may contribute to health professions education.

This special event entitled Simulation on a Social Mission Virtual Reality Festival will take place the week of June 12 (see dates and times below).
